Why I replaced my Taurus G3 with the Sar9

- I've moved on from the Taurus G3 because I found something I like better and that I feel I shoot more accurately. SAR9 a Turkish import that can be found for a little looking under $250.00. So far it has been fantastic and in my opinion is the new winner of the midsize handguns under $300
Welcome to the world of Turkish pistols!
I bought a SAR 9X Platinum when they were going for under $500. It really opened my eyes to the quality of the Turkish pistols.
Soon after I also picked up a Canik TP9SF Elite, Canik TP9 Elite SC and a Tisas 1911 Duty 45 ACP. The Canik’s have some of the best out the box triggers of any manufacture.
The Tisas 1911’s are quality and reliable guns and can often be found for under $350 for the entry model. This makes them the most affordable 1911’s on the market.
Good video. I love the Sar9 and picked up 2 of them from PSA for $249.99 each with the $30 rebate. It’s the best gun on the market at this price and is worth what you paid for it. The quality is really good and mine have been 100% reliable. It’s definitely accurate and a great pickup. Congratulations enjoy your Sar9!
It's one of the best guns on the market for it's price along with the tisas px9... Turkish guns are beautiful
They are $400 now when you can find one. Great Handgun
I own a G3 and don't ever plan on selling it.
I also plan on buying a SAR9 to add to my collection.
Sar, great pistol. Mags and parts hard to get. Sold my Sar9 and Taurus G3. Bought Walther PDP and a CZ P-10c.
I've been ordering my mags directly from Sar USA. It's the only place I've been able to find them.
First, thank you for the video. I was thinking of purchasing a G3 for my first pistol and home defense gun. A close friend of mine mentioned Sar 9 to me. Saying it has the proven reliability without breaking the bank. With you easily switching from the G3 to a Sar 9, makes my decision a bit more clearer. Thanks again for the video!!
I’m rolling with G3. 🔥🔥🔥
I have the g3c and the g2c and they're really good firearms. The wear doesn't bother me but I like some wear on my tools, shows I've been using them. As far as Turkish guns go I buy canik. I have a canik tp9sf elite and a tp9sa, both are very reliable guns with a lot of features. I carry the g3c daily. I've seen the sar pistols but the gun shop I use says that magazines and spare parts are hard to find unless you order them directly from sar.
Thanks John. Great job. Good info. God bless. Happy trails.
LETS GO BRANDON
I have one of those sar9 it was the best investment I ever did that's reliable its my evry day carry I just got a holu rubber grip on it and it's amazing grip and also got a oligth lazer and ligth with it 😀
Bought mine from PSA for $249 & sent in for the $30 rebate! Right now, this is my EDC! Love this gun, shoot this very well! Great video!
I got the sar 9c really nice gun two 15 round magazines every thing with it shot nice
I have the SAR9 and the SAR2000 stainless and love them both. For the SAR9 I went and brought the night sights and swapped them out with the white sights.
Iv owned my SAR 9 for 2 years know and absolutely love it actually like it more than my glocks,sigs,S&W, etc really good gun never had any issues with it
what was urs actually price..?
I just did the same comparison with the G3 and the Sar9. I only bought the Sar9 because I had to send my G3 to Taurus for repair. I guess that it was meant to be because the Sar9 is so lovely (that rhymed btw. lol). 3 days ago I got my G3 back and went sofort to the range to compare the two. I am digging the Sar9, but the G3 has a much smoother feeling trigger. It's flatter and easier to squeeze in my opinion. The take-back is longer due to the double strike capability, but as mentioned the G3 just seems easier to shoot. But if I were to ever have to go back to war, I'm taking the Sar9, hands down. It is built for the battlefield and it has eaten everything that I have fed it. Everything! No hiccups! Nothing! I can't say that for the G3. I guess that I'll see the durability of both very soon. Because I plan to shoot the hell outta both of them. But there is no way I'm getting rid of my G3. lol
I'm thinking the same thing. The SAR9 METE keeps going on sale for $300. That's rough to pass up.
I live in Johns Creek and I glad I saw this video. I will check out the dealer he mentioned that sales the Sar for the great price. I have a Sar 9x and it is a very good pistol.
Was he referring to adventure outdoors in Smyrna because I don’t see a store called outdoor trader in Alpharetta.
I’m in Covington ga I’ve been thinking about getting one of these
I love it
A Taurus esta investindo muito em qualidade.É bom a concorrencia abrir os olhos.Parabens pelo seu canal e pelo video.Um abraço aqui do BRAZIL.
Both pistols have good and bad points. Bad point on the SAR 9, they only give a one year warranty. To me, this is terrible, I don't care how little it costs. Second, the cost of magazines is terrible. For awhile after I got mine, you had to get on a waiting list with an independent supplier to even get a spare magazine. This took me several months to buy three more magazines. Now, you can order the 17 round magazines directly from SAR, but they are overly expensive. The Taurus has a better warranty, a second strike feature on the trigger. The Taurus G3C has Glock compatible sites, just like a GX4. Finding a holster is easy to do for the Taurus, not so much for the SAR 9. Some people have found that certain Glock 19 holsters will fit the SAR 9, but not all. The SAR 9 is recommended to be broken in with several hundred rounds of 124 grain NATO ammo, this is to break in the recoil springs and help ease the gritty trigger pull. The G3 or G3C will fire anything right out of the box just fine. I have both pistols and will not get rid of either. They both have their purposes that I use them for, but I would not get rid of my Taurus G3 to buy another SAR 9. I'd just buy another SAR 9.
Exactly right.
🇺🇸🤠🇲🇽ok gonna check out a sars-9 too now.🇲🇽🤠🇺🇸at some point n time
Looking to get this gun. Thanks for the review...
Bought a new Taurus G3 last year... a total POS. Couldn't fire a full mag without a malfunction. Tried all sorts of ammo and new mags, only SIG 265 ammo would run more than one mag without malfunction. Polished the ramp and all the other recommended stuff with no success. Didn't feel like the hassle of sending another Taurus back for repair. Sold it to a new gunsmith for his training and practice. Replaced the G3 POS with a Stoeger STR-9 that's fantastic... eats everything. Taurus still sucks!
personally my sar9 has replaced my glocks, my S&w m&ps, as my carry guns and my home defense guns. I have had better reliability and accuracy from the sar as well as better ergonomics. those sights will dimly glow if you charge them with a flash light
My G3 and G3c Toro has been 100% reliable and has eaten everything the market has to offer for 9mm I been trying to get my hands on a Sar but MA is communist state so the only way I could get one is buying it from a cop or Military personal but haven’t found one that has bought one and wants to sell it yet here 😪 but it’s a great looking gun and just like Taurus G series guns more pros than Cons wish I could get one in this state
What type of ammo do you use in your Taurus G3 and G3c.
I have a G3 and Im on the fence for a Sar9. And you had to go and make this video lol. I know how the trigger is on the Tauri. Someone tell me how the Sar9 finish & trigger is compared to a factory gen3 Glock ??? Only cause its all Ive ever owned and known till recently.
I like the gun for the price, but I received one bad mag with mine. Dimensions at the top of the mag are different, and the feed lips are longer. It sends the cartridges under the feed ramp, and jams up the slide. My Emails, and phone calls to their customer service get zero response. A one year warranty, and they can’t even honor that. Not the great deal if I have to buy an expensive replacement magazine.
Yeah the only place I've found to get the magazines are from SarUSA too. But they all worked so far
gotta love the odt
Love my G3. Won't be trading it in at any time soon !!
I picked up one for $239 at Cherokee gun and pawn a few months ago, you might want to check them out
If you put light on these sights they will glow fair amount of time.
Yes they are really bright I was surprised when I saw them. The SAR9 really has been an impressive gun so far and with the 249.99 sales it may be the best buy out there right now.
Besides your heavy breathing you at least eventually made the right choice.
ha ha, yeah, my sinuses were killing me. I have been very impressed with this gun so far.
Agreed 💯 👍
Waiting to get the SAR 9C if I can find it
Honestly the Taurus is a great gun but they did have to cut costs somewhere and it’s everything you pointed out but that’s also why it’s so cheap.
Sar 9 is better all around than G3. I don't own a Sar 9 or the G3 but, I own 4 Sarsilmaz pistol and they are all great. I owned a G2C and it was a total junk.
What is it Better at?
I just got a SAR9 with optic for $525
Sar9 us good
It's a taurus , lol
Bad choice
Well if it turns out bad the Taurus is cheap enough to pick up again 😉
@@chickenshippfarmsandoutdoo4617 your right hehe but the taurus g3 is a good reliable gun in my experience yours just probably needs breking inn
