Given it's age, it can have that one
At the end of the day boys and girls, do whatever you want with your money. If you like it and it makes you happy. That’s all that matters
Facts.
Tauras seems to be getting better quality lately I hope they keep it up, GX4 would be a great comparison. Thanks for the videos
I’ll put the GX4 on the list if the Canik Prime doesn’t arrive quickly we will more than likely grab the GX4 Carry.
So is it the same thickness as the shield and the 365?
Monday I went with my cousin to look at pistol's as he's looking at buying his first. Saw a GX4 at Bass pro. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice looking it was in the case. I didn't ask to hold it because it was busy and it was mainly a trip for him, kinda wish I would've though. The GX4 Carry would be a gun I'd 100% consider for the price. The grip looked good and so did the texture. Right now my favorite "carry" size gun i've held is the hellcat pro.
we sell caniks at our range and those always have problems first few hundreds or even thousand rounds.
Best part. I counted 21 rounds .... In a regular not extended mag. Beautiful. Just beautiful...
How'd u make it sound like a cannon
That’s just the mic on the camera.
It's cus you're shooting left handed, only scientific reason
Straight facts.
I think I mentioned you should try the GX4 Carry. It will have the same trigger with replaceable back straps. Maybe a little thinner with 15 round mags. You can also use the mags in the GX2.
Yes on the GX4 please. Looking at both of these pistols. How does the machine work on the internals look? Overall build. Thank you.
My dream handgun ❤
Great comparison with the Plus! I originally wanted to get the Plus, but wasn’t a fan of the trigger. Glad to see the GX2 is comparable to the Plus. Also sounds like that grip angle 📐 may be playing a part in how soft it shoots.
I agree - I think the grip angle plus a big part of how flat/soft it appears to shoot.
This dude is pretty cool about reading posts. I'm really good at being the exact "Target Customer" of every marketing department of every firearm company on the planet. I'm not great enough of a shot to embarrass a sponsor at a competition, my wife and I have 7 sons, we need something for them to do all the time, shooting is a good way to get outside and have fun and you know, 2A all the way. Here's my take on the Taurus GX2, enough people on youtube shoot it and have a look on their face like, "Damn, this doesn't totally suck at all." For a mini gun that's pretty high praise. You can't fake that look. P365 was what turned me nonplussed about Sig completely as a company. It was about when that came out that I got back into pistols. Between 1994 my last year of college and 2015 I had Glock 17 and bought the VP9 in 2015. Still like both. Bought a P365XL for my wife in 2021 when I bought my Gen 5 MOS because on youtube the P365 was the greatest invention in human history. It just kind of sucks, or better stated, fell way short of an enjoyable shooting experience. I can't stand mini guns, I had to get one because that's what everyone is doing. I live in Idaho so I could sport a Desert Eagle with very little pushback but a mini gun sits on my right glute pretty comfortably. For myself, I ended up getting the Hellcat RDP a couple weeks later because everyone said it sucked and the P365 was better. Also, I'd never had a compensator on a gun so I wanted to see if it did anything. Either it does or it's a placebo and I think it does. Either way I like it better than the P365.
I was pleasantly surprised by how it shoots. For me the grip angle will take a little getting use too. The marketing departments get me every time too hahah
I own 2 G3c's and the.22 and like all 3. My EDC is a shield+ in 9mm.
It’s hard to beat the Shield Plus for a EDC in my mind.
Me and the gang were considering Taurus G3s in different colors after getting our LTC, instructor called it one of the cheapest mistakes we would ever make. We decided to listen to guy, but those were the G3s, not the GX series so im interested to see this one make it to 1000
Taurus G3 is a great firearm! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I can't figure out why mine don't seat to battery half the time
I know they offer a third spring now - that may help push the gun back into battery.
Oh yeah new vid!!! 💯💯💯💯 Are you subscribed yet?????
@@joeyh.804 thanks, Joey.
If you remember the P365, is the gx2 easier or more difficult to rack?
It’s way easier to rack than the P365.
As an old man i can rack the p365’s. A NRA review the gx2 slide is very stiff. So we’ll see. Thanks
@ it always seem like there’s a ton of variation in the amount of force to rack a slide - it does improve them the gun is shot.
they have gone back to their lifetime warranty on their gear , you really cannotcomplain with that
@@chillios2222 that’s a good point.
Limp wrist
I think the G2C line is where it started. I believe that was their problem child. From what I have been told, from the G3C line and forward they have greatly improved. Never had an issue with their revolvers or 1911’s. Will checking this one out in the near future.
Thanks for the information.
I like the sound in this vid.
Sht looks snappy
It was pretty dang snappy compared to a ton of other pistols.
🎯I recently shot a g2c and It would not shoot steel ammo at all Monarch 115 steel case like to see if it would run a box of that great job on your reviews🔫
I'll see if I can find any when I stop by the local gun store but I doubt they will have it.
My G2C eats steel, brass, etc!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I have seen only one guy talking bad about the gun. The rest have been positive. Still early. But the GX4 and carry have hood reviews too. Some people have bias out the gate and hold on to those. It's like the guys that talk bad about foreign guns but also talk about how good H&K, Walthers and Glocks are 😂. The main this is for the tool to work not matter the price. Taurus has seemed to change things around over the years. When I started out almost 20 years ago i looked for budget friendly guns. Purchased 3 Taurus' (Millenuin PT111 and two slims ) and a Smith SVE and all have worked well. Haven't shot them in years but still have them.
Good mic
My father in law bought a Taurus a while back, had a rare malfunction in it, Taurus took it back and replaced it because the issue was not reparable. They gave him a brand new GX4 carry. Because of that outstanding customer service my next buy will be Taurus and possibly the gx2
Thanks for that comment. You always hear about the bad situations but it’s not often you hear about good customer service.
They knocked it out of the park with their TX line of 22's. Probably inspired them to build back better in the 9mm department.
Nice video shoots well. Might be worth buying if depdable. But own a smith and wesson m&p shield plus which i trust.
Me too. It’s hard to leave the Shield Plus but if I didn’t have one and needed an affordable option the GX2 seems to check a lot of boxes.
Or guide rod and spring
Could bad magazines cause ftf. Does anyone know
@@stanleyhaller8991 what failure to feed? Magazines can cause feeding issues.
@@averagemarksman tks

@@bigyanko360 that’s a crazy price.

Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work!
@@AllenNone thanks, sir.
I’m new the guns just so that you have context. But this is my second pistol, I’ve probably put about 2000 rounds through it so far. I had two failures to eject. But I do believe it was my fault. Otherwise, I’ve had no issues and I love the damn thing.
@@ugk26 that’s awesome. I’m glad it’s running smoothly for you.
@ I’m sad it’s not running well for you. I do agree about QC issues as well, based on what I’ve seen online. Maybe I got lucky. Was using Sellier and Belllot 115 grain. I may try the 124 the guy suggested in the comments, see how it feels. Cheers man!
@@ugk26 It’s not a bad pistol. A bit over hyped and some issues but it’s a fun range toy. Cheers.
Turkish pot metal junk that jams? 😮🤯
Watch out. The Canik fan boys won’t like that comment.
Not a fanboy but I will say, my TP9 Elite SC has never had a malfunction and I've owned it since 2022. I've run it dirty as hell and shot about 2,000 rounds of Wolf steel through it to test it for malfunctions. Could just be a new gun being broken in? Time will tell!
Mine works fine with Glock mags.
That’s great news.
@@averagemarksman weird yours was hanging up?
@ oh ya, non stop. It looks like the slide stop was getting stuck on the FCI. I think it’s just a tolerance issue. The issue did improve as I took the gun apart and kept bending the slide stop spring.
I love guntuber videos. The reason guntubers don't bring up issues is because no matter what they say about being objective the industry itself does not reward bad reviews. Notice there are almost no reviews on any Sig platform anymore. Sig, for example, has a very thin skin as a company, they demand Borg loyalty. Even tell a Sig guy you know you don't like Sig like I don't and they lose their damn minds. Even if a guntuber wants to be objective we consumers flock to the notion of the perfect do it all pistol, positivity and optimism for the next great thing bring up blindspots in both the guntubers and the consumer. I have lots of pistols and I like them all a lot but none of them are perfect no matter if I spend $600 or $2k. All of them I can hit what I'm aiming at if I practice and concentrate. That said, I'll keep buying pistols because it's fun, the whole process of going to the shop, talking guns with the guys, imagining how great it's going to be is a super fun hobby.
Well said.
SPRINGFIELD & CANIK ARE THE NEW KINGS 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Neat caliber, nice gun. The lack of ammo and price of ammo at $1.50 per round is a red flag for me. Best to stick with 9mm. Less than 25 cents a round, and when the next shortage happens will still be available compared to the fringe calibers.
I agree completely.
“13.1 inch barrel” “safety is reversible”. Whaaa?
@@justincaswell313 is that what I said? Lol. 3.1” - magazine release is reversible lol. Maybe the unboxing was to quick haha
@ I knew what you meant lol just giving you a hard time. Do you happen to know what I’d need to mount a Trijicon rmr type 2? Mines coming today but trying to get everything aligned
@ I know - no hard feelings on my end. Sometimes when I edit the videos I even laugh at what I say. I don’t believe you’ll be able to put that RMR on the Shield.
@ yeah unfortunately that’s what I’m finding out. Did you end up putting an optic on yours?
@ I shot it a bit with an optic on it but I’m not a fan of how the mounting system is cut (it’s angled down in the front) so I took the dot back off. There should be videos of me shooting it in the playlist with an optic on it.
Defiantly not a serious shooter.
Nah, dudes a bum.
@ correct.
👍👍
I just got my MC9L
The trijicon is more expensive than the rxm they should have included a standard blocking plate on the trijicon to start with. Because you definitely need one with the rxm!
please review lcp max
It's hard for me to consider the LCP Max when the Bodyguard 2.0 is available.
The reason they don't have the controls on the right is that they know lefties are intrinsically unsafe.
Tarus make good quality guns. They are not the best at anything and their finish doesn’t hold up as well as some but they are shooters you can depend on. They are also one of the best values in the gun world. The GX2 sells for around $260 in my area and they are a lot of pistol for that low a price. Hard to beat pistol value !
It really is hard to beat the value.
Thanks ! I really appreciate you saving us some time to see if its really worth it or not . Been a canik fan for a while but after the mc9 i wasnt feeling to confident to use as EDC.
@@NovaScottia007 I’m looking forward to getting my hands on the Prime.
