I don't have that one, but the two autos and one revolver from Taurus I have are solid guns. A friend has a M65 and M44 that have both been good performers as well. Double action trigger pulls aren't the best on the Taurus revolvers I've owned or shot but they've all had good single action triggers.

I would (will) buy more of them.  :grin:

I've got a Taurus 669 SS 4" barrel that I like.
It's an excellent example that Taurus is capable of making a quality firearm.

I have a 4" Barrel 669CP in Stainless Steel that I bought new in 1996. It has been highly accurate with everything I've put through it. I've fired over 10,000 rounds without a hiccup; it's a keeper!

I have a 627 SS w/4" barrel, and I love it.  I bought it new in 1999, and wouldn't trade it for anything.  Nice trigger, accurate out of the box, and my only complaint is the "ribbed for my pleasure" grips.  I'm glad the solid rubber grips are available.

<Edited because Taurus doesn't make a 4' barrel in this model.....>

I have, as of right now, 4 Taurus handguns that I am VERY pleased with.
Model 607 in 357
Model 85 in 38spl
2 Raging Bulls both in 454
These guns are just as good as any S&W I ever owned and the triggers on them are far better than any Ruger I have owned :D

:cb2: I'm glad to hear you guys a happy with your Taurus revolvers. I made the mistake of getting a Taurus semi-automatic, and I've been trying to unload it for over a year now.
