If he starts carrying it and we go out to dinner again, I say he has to sit at another table.Most of the people posting in this thread aren’t posting because of some “sound bite” they’ve heard about Taurus and their QC issues. When they post specific problems and concerns with Taurus, those are usually problems they’ve run into during previous dealings with Taurus. Your post reads like some advice for OP to try a Taurus and see if he likes it. I believe you’ll find he has owned Taurus in the past, and like all the rest of us posting here, has a good reason for not wanting another one.
