G2C for over 3 years now over 11,000 rounds shoots all types of ammo highly reliable on that along this weapon gets a A grade get a keep trinkering trigger he makes them in SAO AND DUAL STRIKE LIKE THE FACTORY - THIS IS THE BEST WEAPON ON THE PLANET PER PRICE AN RELIABILITY NO MATTER WHAT THE TAURUS HATERS SAY !!!!
How did you keep track of, 11k rounds through the, G2c?Thanks
I haven't gotten that many rounds through mine but I will say I've rapid fired 50 round drums maybe 4 times and multiple 32 round clips and havent ever had an issue other than the factory trigger I ordered a red trigger from keep tinkering I'm waiting for it to be installed but this is definitely the Taurus that made me change my opinion on the brand I had one of the 380s and a 40 cal but I was never truly satisfied with it there's so much you can do with this Taurus it's my lil Glock beater
@@deborahbaggett3109 Why do you say glock beater??Thanks
@@vonfields6889 does the same as a glock for half the price... glock beater
Keeping count of rounds fired it is easy if you have your log on your agenda even just for year round ammo budget count gives you the pucture clear idea of the value and accuracy of the fire arm for the price paid. G2C is a
Wonderful option when comes to gand guns
I bought the Taurus pt111 Millennium g2 in 2017. Over 1000 rounds through it with 0 malfunction. Keep it clean and it runs like a champ.
just won a raffle for the g2c best $18 spent total for me was $60 including transfer fees and a box of 50rd target ammo

There is a trigger upgrade made by a fellow calling himself "Just tinkering". He makes a polymer trigger array, both sa/da & sa only, that do NOT have a trigger safety blade. They all decrease the initial trigger pull take up before the break considerably, some more than others, (sa in particular). They also shorten the reset.
He even has TH-cam installation videos to guide you, for the diy guys. I think his line is on either Amazon or eBay. I've replaced mine (sa/da) myself and it's a great improvement. 👍
You may want to upgrade the G2C to an A+, The function of the trigger reset is a short one after the firing of the first round on purpose to quickly fire all following rounds without a full trigger reset, and being a striker fire pistol you also get second strike on a round that may have misfired due to a faulty primer. I have the G2C and PT111 and am in the process of upgrading, Thanks for video just wanted to give out some more info on the weapons capability
These Taurus guns are awesome ,good quality reliable guns and are priced properly!
It’s not a double reset. If you want to test the reset, dry fire it, hold the trigger in, cycle by hand, now the actual reset can happen. Mine moves forward just under 1/8 of inch and hits the reset. Taurus designed it to have double fire, in case a round doesn’t fire, you can refire and hopefully the round goes off. Great video!
To make my G2C look sharp I took a white grease pencil & filled in the lettering on both sides of the upper, wiped off the excess... & voila! looks great!
$199 on 12/14/21. $17 box of 9's. Excellent firearm. Sights are fine if you can shoot.
Keep tinkering makes several models of triggers for the g2, G2c, g2s they make them in both SA and the SA-DA like the gun comes with they also sell a spring upgrade for 5$ which I for sure would get the triggers reduce trigger pull by up to 45% depending on the model you go with and also removes the trigger button saftey which makes the gun amazing after the upgrade these triggers are amazing highly recommend I have everything you have done upgrade wise plus the keep tinkering trigger and the gun is my favorite to shoot even over several of my more expensive guns I have. Hope this helps
G2c I added a competition lakeline threaded barrel and muzzle break stainless guide rod. ADE green dot sight. Smithed the slide it's now a tack driver. Tighter than a baby doe. Ran 500 rounds of the cheap steel case ammo outta the box ran great but then knew I could make it better than stock.
The G2c is a solid tool.always preforms well, I've had friends fire 1,000s of rounds with zero issues! subbed. 🇺🇸
Keep tinkering. This guy makes triggers specifically for Taurus. Independent ran and made. USA. I replaced it myself he has a great video I paid 30 bucks free shipping!!! Removes 30 %take up and reset. And it really does, I love the gun.
This is one of my 3 main carry guns. I have a shield 40 for small as possible carry. A Glock 17 with a full size light and red dot. And the G2c right in the middle of capacity and size. It's perfect. Taurus still makes this weapon brand new. I'd take this over the G2c because the slide dimples are nicer than serrations for slide operation. It's really one of my favorites. I do want to replace my sights. I had an optic plate but it came loose a few times so I took it off.
Keep tinkering make a great trigger. I also have bought the stainless steel guide and recoil also with the trigger upgrade it’s amazing
Keep tinkering makes good triggers for them. Clean and hearty feeling
I concur with steel cased ammo. My only failure to ejects have been with it.
Steel 9mm … sheesh buddy a box of $50 cost $20-$25 … me personally I wouldn’t expect a 9mm gun to function like a AK.
Love the keep tinkering reset range, only downside is it takes away the doublestrike the factory trigger comes with. Easy install and like I said, makes the trigger feel like a glock’s. After that, it’s a whole new gun.
You should have gone with Truglo TFO Pro sights. That front sight doesn't need any filing. It fit my G2C like a glove.

What's the best light to get for G2C
@@c.j.193 a handheld light unless you know legal issues associated with a gun mounted light.
I ended up getting the lakeline llc mounting plate and a red dot on mine, same rookie mistake here when installing the mounting plate. It comes a little large and needs to be filed. There is a little dovetail angle on the plate that must be maintained when filed. $40 later I took my time on the 2nd one and using a small flat file kept the original angle when filing it down. It took ALOT of filing. The lakeline mounting plate is the best one on the market right now in terms of how it fits once it's installed, the profile of it fits the top of the pistol better than any of the others. Other plates are much easier to install, though, and they still feel secure on top of the pistol and maintain zero, but they overhang awkwardly on top of the slide. Hope this helps anyone thinking about putting a dot on one of these.
Shoot that and a pt111 left handed. I have everyday carried the pt111 for years. No complaints. That is why I bought the g2c when it went on sale without a second thought.
I probably have about 700 rounds through mine. The trigger has a lot of take-up, but the wall is defined, the break is crisp, and the reset isn't too bad. I've had it about a month. I have a few other pistols, but this is the only one with a thumb safety so I have actually been carrying it instead of my Hellcat Pro.
Sticky Holster is amazing. No clips no bs and very comfortable.
Do you IWB with the Sticky holster?
Thank you for the suggestions! I just ordered the same parts. Even though it’s just a cheap pistol, I think it’s worth it.
Over 10,000 rounds thru my g2c shoots all types of ammo
Do you know he was talking about how the slide scratches up real easy I wonder if you could ever send it off to get some type of coating on the slide like Smith & Wesson does to their slides. I hear that some of the best durable coating available.😊
I just picked up my G2c for 299.00. They had two refurbished in excellent condition for 249.00.
Ammo on the other hand...

Urbancarry holsters has what you need. Hybrid kydex& leather blend.
Keep Tinkering has good SA and SA/DA trigger options.

Love mine...does NOT need upgrades! Rock on, shoot on! Wahi' Valleys
Taurus has holster’s made for the G2C with or without the laser
Keep Tinkering SA trigger for the G2C...from B to A? I say yes.
Gotta run that ADE red dot. It's a crutch I know but God does it make shooting easier.
With the ADE mounting plate? Heard bad things about the Mounting Plate/Red Dot .. sending my G2c to get milled
I had 2 stove-pipes in about 1500 rounds using the Wolfe crap. I would never carry it for conceaed carry. I attribute those to wimp-wrist. I use Critical Defense defense hollow-point for CC.
love my g2c got 2k+ ammo trough it. only ran in to jams with the wolf ammo. just got the Stainless Steel Striker Guide and the Stainless Recoil Assembly Guide Rod from lakelinellc. and 2 17 round mags fun gun
Very reliable for price i have 350 rds thru mine one failiure with corbon dpx i also put a variety of hp and fmj thru it hst goldensabre gold dot fmj fn it ate pretty much every thin except for that one dpx
I also would like to know if there’s a holster for Taurus G2c with the flashlight
just ordered the lakeline upgrades. Cant wait!

Should I change my striker plastic to stainless or leave it alone
Talon Holsters, part of Talon Range, in Tallahassee FL will make a great holster for anything!
Wish I would have gotten this pistol earlier, I picked it up for $299 a couple of months ago!
@Grey Beard The Gr8 Thank you for watching and for your comment. Yea, going price is about $300. I just paid that for the G3C in OD Green...coming to a review on TH-cam soon, lol. Let us know your feedback on the pistol when you get the chance. If you haven’t already, please subscribe.
2023 here just bought Mine a week ago. But you know in Reality i wasnt upset at a higher price because to me i still Feel it was well worth the money. Hopefully soon can do the lakeLine barrel upgrade , etc want to see the difference
Lakeline llc for upgrades

That means 9 years. You can thank Sears for pushing through that legislation when some really old guy had thousands of tools from early/mid 1900's and sued Sears to replace them after a flood. He won, and Sears killed the Lifetime(Lifetime) warranty. Now the true lifetime warrantys are called forever warranty, but it's rarely used because people are still in general uninformed about that.

@@HalfCenturyConcealment I worked for their tire center. Was the 2nd job I had. I think they went out of business because people couldn't handle the lop sided shopping cart wheels from those security carts that would lock up in the parking lot whenever the right combination of parked vehicles screwed up the signal.
I just bought a G2C in November 2022 for $199.99 from Range USA including $25 rebate….Curious……Does modifying the internals void the warranty? Good review😎👍
I have an apocalypse holster with pl mini 2 compatibility. I love it!

Yep I can tell you that Amazon has a ECO Leather holster for your G2C
I bought the fiber optic sights and the upgraded spring from Lakeland llc. Bo complaints.
Get the asmund trigger assembly it works
What upgrades do you have on your g2c? I see the iron sights and recoil spring from Lakeline
Have the G2C 40 cal. Have lots of failures to feed with Hornady CRITICAL Defense Ammo. Have you had any of these issues or any thoughts on cause? I just got it about a month ago and have fired about 500 rounds of ball, 30 rounds of defense(another local brand) that all worked fine. I've noticed the Hornadys are slightly longer due to the FTX tech tip.
Was my first carry gun (see my channel). That .40 was too much for the G2C in my opinion. I got rid of it for a 9mm version. Works flawlessly. Hollow points works great. No fail. My ORIGINAL .40 cal G2C broke. Wouldn’t cock back after shooting. Would just shoot the chambered round and nothing happen after that. Idk what happened till this day but other then that I had 3 other G2C/G2C/G3 with no failures at all. Works flawlessly. (.40 cal) beats up the Taurus G2C to much. I think they should only release .40 for G3 size guns to deal with that abusive power of the .40.
I got the G3C 2 weeks ago for $305.00👍😁

Apex make a great trigger
Whats the best overall bullets for this
I have the G3C and I heard of urban carry holster carries a leather for it
I agree with most of these suggestions. The sights def need replacement.
....what doesn't need replacement.? The recoil spring assembly....why.? it be a hefty strong azz plastic.
It's designed as such to be a shock absorber as the slide cycles...it need 'the give' that plastic offers.
...go wif the stock mags, they work fine...what's that.? ya needs mo' for yo 2C33.?
Gets you some mo' better ammo.....plenty mo'....2023 gonna get real yo'.
What is your review of the OLIGHT Baldr S Rail Mounted Light 800 Lumens for the G2C or G3C and do you have this on your Discount and codes. Thanks 😀
Ebay has some good trigger options for an upgraded trigger
@david blanchette For starters, I apologize for the delay in responding. For unknown reasons we were not able to post replies for the last 3 months. That now seems fixed.

Keep Tinkering sells their triggers on eBay. Great quality and great customer service
saw one at my lgs for 180 but sadly when i went to get it it was gone
Don't need the internal upgrades, unless You have OCD or love to tinker. Theses guy out here with double digit ie many thousands of rounds through it with zero wear !..... Got to admit I am the upgrade tinker type 😆
Many thousands of the cheap steel and expensive jhp and not a single jam or issue with it. Didn't change anything other than adding laser. Gun snobs are always gonna hate but I love it
Sept 2023 g2c price $189 in sale
Damn things are going for 270 ish now
Keep tinkering
Amazon has a holster for the g2c

If used wolf 9mm and 7.62x39 and it runs ok just cheap I think
What’s the deal with this double reset I’ve had plenty of training with the G2C without any experience with this trigger problem 🤷♂️🤷♂️
@michael cordell For starters, I apologize for the delay in responding. We have had nothing but issues with our account over the last months. Hopefully that is done with. Next thank you for watching and for your comment...I am probably going to modify the trigger slightly which should eliminate the double click. The new G3C has an upgraded trigger.

Excellent review but the thousand rounds is meaningless considering the internal modifications. I wonder if all those plastic parts would have held up. I suspect they would but I don't know based on your review.
As a G2c owner with 3500+ rounds, the oem parts don't hold up. At a little less than 800 rounds, the polymer guide rod began to fail, became loose and floppy, in other words, also the trigger pull became very gritty due to the Taurus oem plastic firing pin sleeve.
From Lakeline LLC, I purchased an all stainless steel guide rod, also a stainless steel striker guide sleeve, fixing the firing pin system, thereby the trigger pull.
Result: Decreased recoil, smooth trigger pull, not gritty, a joy to shoot.
Prior to upgrades, 2 or 3 failures.
None since.
Note: BE AWARE, ANY and ALL INTERNAL upgrades, WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. INCLUDES ANY SIGHTS NOT SOLD BY TAURUS AND INSTALLED BY A LICENSED GUNSMITH.
Taurus doesn't do a hardline stance on that. I can speak from personal experience. They warrenteed my g2c with updated sights and Lakeline internals. My ejector failed and they sent me a new gun..
Without any upgrades of course. 😢
No upgrades other than the viridian laser. Easily 4-5000 rounds through it and not a single issue. Ran plenty of the cheap wolf steel through it.
i have seen one other gun that had this with the trigger....and the trigger ened up failing,,mine does not have two clicks ,,im not sure why some do
@relic tramp For starters, I apologize for the delay in responding. For unknown reasons we were not able to post replies for the last 3 months. That now seems fixed. Next thank you for watching and for your comment...So far no fail, but thank you for letting us know about your G2C trigger having only one click. I may tinker with new trigger kits available online.

Ah man. You bought a single action only 😂 You should've bought the SA/DA trigger. That keeps the double action
A bunch to pic through . SA and DA
I got the 40 cal G2C, like it but honestly it's a bitch to shoot.
Hi, can I have your old sights? lol My we're damaged by another person using it.
Storm Holsters did a really good job on my Taurus g2c with the o light attached! They have a lot of styles, check their Instagram page @storm_holsters they have a link to their email too, that’s how you can reach them.
@DANIEL Ponce For starters, I apologize for the delay in responding. For unknown reasons we were not able to post replies for the last 3 months. That now seems fixed.

I only shoot defense ammo
this is where people, damn near EVERYONE gets Tula and wolf ammo wrong. it is not the ammo. it is the case. ALL firearms manufacturers warn about using steel cased ammo. the ammo and the powder is perfectly fine in all Russian made ammo, and in some cases its better than the modern shitty stuff from the new iteration of Remington. your problems are with the steel casing. steel does not have the same metallurgical characteristics as brass. its much more stiff and isnt as flexible as brass under pressure. the issue is the steel casing.
Mine don't double click
Nothing like slipping & sliding with a firearm in your hand!!
Okay sir why would you leave your pistol in your car when if you get robbed outside your car's too late to get in your car to get your gun then what are you going to do not try to fight this guy off or whatever it is so therefore why would you leave any gun in your car for someone to attack you and you can't get to it cuz your car most likely going to be locked so answer me that question get back to me Shorty P peace out
@Van Pittman Thank you for watching, yet you didn’t focus well on my every word. It matters, as there was one key word that you missed. You missed “extra” as in an “extra gun”. I clearly said an extra gun to leave in your car or for your passenger to have access to. See if you carry a pistol on your body then the gun in your center console is the extra gun. If someone attacks you outside of your car then you have your on-the-body carry gun to use should you have to protect your life. One word can make all the difference in the world. Fell free to watch again and confirm. If you haven’t already, please subscribe. We are working on new and relevant content using great words all the time.
If you are going to keep a gun in your car , get a safe. A car is not a safe place to keep a gun of any kind.
Just bought one. The second strike function doesn't work. Junk! ! Never buy a Taurus pistol again.
@Andy P Thank you for watching and for sharing your experience. Good or bad it is helpful to our viewers who are looking to make a buying decision. In the gun & knife industries I have found that it is normal for the consumer to pay the warranty shipping cost. I would greatly appreciate if once you get the pistol back and take it to the range, if you could let us know how it all turned out. If you haven’t already, please subscribe, we are working on new relevant content all the time.
Just picked up my g2c and have yet to put a round through it. Sorry you’re having issues with your pistol. Can you be more specific on the failure of the second strike function? I’d like to investigate this phenomena and try to replicate it to see if I can help explain it. Also, I was told by my ffl store to return the firearm to them for free shipping for warranty work. I have to reread the warranty but I think this free shipping is offered by the store and not through Taurus. I’ll post an update soon.
@@SharpTungsten I dried fire the gun when I got it brand new out of the box. I pulled the trigger all the way back until the striker fired. The trigger stayed in that position (all the way back ) unless I racked the slide or used my finger to push it forward, back to the initial position. Thanks for the shipping tip. I'll check with my store.
@@michmanusa Thank you, I’ll tinker with my pistol and see if I can get you some answers.
Correction: Taurus Will pay for the shipping costs. You have to call Taurus. The info regarding to shipping in owner manual book is NOT correct.
“If your hands have blood on them”?? Dude. Appreciate the review...but you lost me on the “shower gun” and “blood on your hands” grip reference. I have this pistol at my FFL. Based on my location (regulations) this is a bedside/home defense gun. Appreciate the pet rescue message at the end as that my deal as well. But you lost me a few times.
@Chris McVey Thank you for watching and for your comment. Hopefully you are never in a life threatening situation...It isn't extraordinary to envision a situation where you need to grab your gun and you do have blood on your hands, either your blood or blood from someone else. Self defense is always clean and simple. Glad that you suport pet adoptions! If you haven't already, Subscribe. We are working on new and relevant content all the time
A gun in the shower? Pretty stupid statement.
Not a bad review, but lose the music. If I want MTV I go to a music site.
I don't need it mixed with long intro's, get to the point.
