You guys who have them or have shot them,what do you like/dislike about them?

I have only shot 2...the first was many years ago...it was Taurus's take on the 92. I remember very little about it.
The second one is a Taurus PT111 MILL in 9mm. I bought this so my room mate had something under her bed when I wasn't around. The gun isn't too bad. Not the quality I am used to but a pretty good gun. The trigger pull is long and pretty firm but it isn't a target pistol. I think that for what it is made for it is a pretty good gun.

Got a 92 compact that shoots really well. Very accurate and functions flawlessly. Chamber is a little sloppy but doesnt seem to affect accuracy. It'll eat anything you put in it. KN

All in all, pretty spartan. The mdl 92 clones are Tarus's best effort!
Stay Safe,

I have a pt92 and pt945,they shoot well for what I paid.
imho,they use cast parts and will not handle many high power rounds.
this is just my opinion,but I feel they should be made slightly heavier.
I would like to have a 10mm,but I doubt these cast frames and barrels would or could take much abuse.

I had the PT-99 this is the 92 but with adjustable sights. This was a pretty
good gun, It never failed to fire or eject. It wasn't real accurate though.
I gave it to my son who just loves it. I went out and bought a Beretta,
although the Taurus is a copy of the Beretta it still not in the same ball
park IMO.
