This is indicative of being a part of the golden era of guns! A "budget" gun was able to compete with a legendary manufacture like Sig for half the money. What a beautiful time to be a gun enthusiast!
I probably wouldn't have my first pistol so soon if it wasn't for Taurus's affordable options. Going to stick with them rather than go the Glock route.
You want to buy A Compact carry pistol? Without the Bells and Whistles, think about the selling price and how you can save on Bullets, maintenance etc. The G2C is just as Good as the others Bar None.
I'm a revolver guy. Love my wheel guns. My 19 year old son wanted my GP 100 6 inch so he traded me for his new G2C. After a little range time, it's now my every day carry gun. Love it
If Taurus or Kel-Tec or Hi-Point or some other "budget gun" had the problems that the 365 had, people would be trashing them on every video review or forum. But ohhh because it's Sig, they get a pass. It's funny how gun snobbery works
Rich Smith Hahaha. Exactly right!!! The worst 2 guns that I own are Rugers. For real. They are sending JUNK out the door, these days. My Taurus guns are amazing. Period.
QUITE true! And the most incredible thing about the 365 is that it now carries this image people always thought was typical of these "budget guns." And with 3 recalls so far by Sig, $600 is quite a crapshoot! One can Google ANY brand out there -including the sacred cow Glock- and punch in "problems" after the brand, and find a lot of pissed-off people. Sure - some problems are NOT problems with the gun but with the shooter, ammo, position. But I've seen a few Rolls-Royces on flatbeds going to the shop in my life, so ANYthing is subject to problems.
I really liked the size of the P365 for a Summertime appendix carry, but with each rerelease where they didn’t ‘fix’ anything, but made improvements.... and then you STILL hear the same issues happening, I can’t purchase a platform with sustained reliability issues. I’ve switched gears and I’m looking forward to purchasing an optics ready CZ P10S in the near future.
I have 2200 rounds out of my sig with no malfunctions. Every gun company has there error guns. Even glocks have malfunctions. It's manufacturing errors
Great review......2 years later and I have no regrets choosing the G2C over other brand name carry guns. 100% reliable and fun to shoot. A homerun for Taurus !
Finally someone who’s a realist and not a gun snob .. all gun makers have great and not so great. Love my g2c carry everyday had the pt1111 always went bang
Dominic Molina the ones that are skeptical of the g2c because of the companies past dealings and their customer support. I myself have the g2c as a new gun owner did my research before I bought it. It works great for the price range and had extra money for ammo for under 300 bucks. Just take care of it and it’ll take care of you
I have one. 1500 rounds thru it. Steel case gave a few problems. Nothing too bad. Like this little gun. Front sight came off the other day at the range. First real issue.
@@lonetrader1 love the 809 just purchase the pt92 this is my third Taurus and love the PT111G2 had it for 5yr would love to upgrade but Granddad always say if it ain't broke don't fix it
Totally agree. I paid $208 out the door for my G2C, reliable gun, great reviews, not too small or too large, 12+ 1 capacity, and great price. You'd be crazy to pay $600 for something else.
Really? You just said that "you would be crazy to pay $600 for something else?" So, I would be "crazy" to purchase an AR-15 over the Taurus? Or, $600 for a Smith and Wesson M&P? Or, $600 for a Glock 19X? I think your statement is about as "crazy and as insane" as anything I have ever heard.
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry I do believe he means Compact vs Compact ... Taurus being around $200-300 and theSig being $600. Anything else is apples vs oranges.
I own both, and the G2C definitely holds its own against the P365. I replaced the striker in the Sig, and have had no issues. This is a valid comparison, and you cannot go wrong with the G2C. For the price, it is the steal of the year.
WOW!!! With respect to all the other fine opinions here, YOURS has GOT to be of the most value: you have BOTH - the ultimate empirical evidence anyone could ask for! Thanks!!
I have both too and Carry the p365. The G3C is a good gun but the 365 Is better. It has better sites, better trigger, same magazine capacity but easier to conceal.
I hope you appreciate a good value when your Taurus stovepipes and you catch a bullet in your groin. I used to think Kel-tec was the the chief of junk, until I traded in a p3AT (bought when it was the only .380 subcompact) which was unshootable and injured my hand, I was talked into a Taurus Spectrum. No room to describe its awful features, but it immediately dethroned Kel-tec from the Kingship of junk. I did not get it to feed a single round of any ammo. I am hoping the get rid of it soon and change good value for brand. Fortunately every other weapon I own is a "brand." Caveat emptor.
@@asaunders1406 That is just plain stupid and gun snobbery talking rright there. I have had KIMBERS STOVEPIPE AND FTE... LIKE SIG is 10000% reliable... GROW UP.
I'm on my third month of Taurus ownership and I can't believe I didn't switch earlier. Price, performance & Taurus is the antithesis of today's premium arms makers.
@Shek Jesus I have a VP9. I love it, I would have been just as happy with an M&P 9 or a Taurus 92. Gun is better than no gun. If all you can afford is a hi-point then it's better than nothing. Don't be a douche.
@@bammbamm2268 this guy is a wanna be,dont waste your time probably dont even own a gun! whats the problem with owning a good gun at a great value? as I posted above I own a lot of guns,handguns,revolvers,shotguns and rifles.my taurus is what lays next to my head at night,so i trust it with my and my familys life.ive never heard a bad guy ask,,,,,,what kinda gun did you shoot me with? I hope it was a sig sauer!! lmao we are lucky that in todays market we have so may choices as all weapons manufactuers have had to pick up their game and put out quality to compete in todays market. spend the 200 buy the taurus and use the extra 400 for some training and ammo and i promise, you will never have to worry about what letters are engraved on the side of your firearm
I had a $500+ budget for a “truck gun”. I must have a gun that feels right in my hand, and I will admit I have to like the way it looks. My only other criteria were I wanted a less than full size (hey, I got smaller hands), 9mm and the mag had to hold double digits of rounds. Went to a very well stocked gun shop and handled about 12 pistols the guy recommended based on my wants, almost all of them more expensive than the Taurus. The G2C was the one that hit the marks with the least checks in the compromise column. A few hundred rounds later and I’ve learned to like the trigger and have had no issues. At half my budget, I may just go buy a 2nd one. I really dig it
Did alot of research on the Glock 43, sig p365, and found out about the g2c on accident. After noticing the Glocks limited capacity and the p365s problems I went with the G2c and I couldn't be happier. The G2c shoots cheap, crap ammo like a champ and I'm making shot after shot hit right on top of shots like I'm fucking Robin hood splitting arrows. If my G2c cost me 450 I still would have paid it.
Its 2019, I have fired over 2500, never had a issue with my G2C. If you follow all the other videos on people who test this 9mm, you will see, they become to love it and its their go to conceal carry. It is such a fun gun to fire, not just for self defense, but also for plinking, practice. It has very solid utility and I have actually used it on tactical ranges in tactical maneuvers including urban combat senerios. It makes a good substitute fire arm for a possible combat situation. Its very rugged for the price. I have dropped it, loaded in my combat maneuvers, did not discharge, like a issue of prior Taurus firearms Combat training and range firing is much more vigorous than say plinking at some indoor range. It handled very well getting dirty like dust sand water, extreme cold and extreme temperatures, one good aspect is it cleans really easy, take down is simple( field strip) to clean in a hurry or a tactical condition - not like my M16 when in the Army- Most fire arms dont handle well with steel jacket ammo, so i sue only brass or aluminum. I did run steel jackets in my Taurus several times, I did notice some marring on the trigger safety, i used a light fiber tube to clearly see the barrel for cracks and stress in the barrel insides after 2500 no noticeable damage to the barrel or on the slide feed, but the trigger safety was marred, took to a gun smith, they replaced, but thats a pretty standard maintenance every gun owner should do...like oil your fire arm, after firing clean your weapon., if you take care of this G2C , you have a gem of fire arm. It 2019, most guys who have tested this had time to run many cartridges through, it has become their trusty go to .. and had some time so replacement parts are much more accessible and affordable. Not sure of other Taurus Models, but this G2C has become, in my option, the best model they have going for them , prior CEO in the company didnt know what they doing, but this new guy as CEO knows how to build a terrific fire arm. The price is still 269.00 USD, They sort of out done themselves cause this model, could be made a government issue for its durability, its accuracy right out of the box, no misfires (if using decent ammo and proper cleaning, like one is taught in the military) its a very good side arm ...and despite its short barrel being a conceal carry, its highly accurate, a very big surprise.
I work on firearms, I compete with them. I could carry any one I want. Most days, I'm wearing a G2C. Sometimes you just have to put price and status aside, and carry what's most functional, over what others think is cool. The Taurus nails it.
I work in a gun store, and I would definitely choose the G2C over the Sig, I have 2 of them with ZERO problems and they are a plesure to shoot 👍 P.S. class video with great comparison, well done sir.
Do you have any CZ's at your store? They cannot be found where I live, but I have a buddy who has the CZ-P10 and I've read a lot of good things about them.
@quixoticelixer lolololo I apologize,,,,, Im sure it was me who started it,,,,,, I don't hate you,,,,,, have a lovely evening. 🇮🇪🇺🇸👍,,,,,, search your self,,,,, you can be better ,,,,, we all can yeeh.
John Robert I don’t disagree with you, BUT there is something to a solid report/track record. For all we know High Point could make a great gun next week and most of us wouldn’t know bc we’d never buy a high point lol.
The ONLY way to buy!!! AND the most logical!!! Guns are like everything else people buy: the majority go with what is imaged as the best brand, so they end up buying a brand or image - like the packaging around a product, without checking out the product itself. This is the essence of advertising: we tend to buy packages and not products.
Agreed!...I have a glock 43, S&W Sheild, XDS and now the G2C. During my monthly range time I love shooting this gun more than the others. No issues, as this price point is just unbelievable.
Faced with the same choice, I went with the Taurus G2C. Added Lakeline parts (steel striker guide, steel guide rod, focal point night sights), Talon grips, and 2 18rd Mec-Gar SIG P226 mags with 3D printed grip extensions. All that and 2 holsters and I'm still below the cost of the P365.
Had the G2C and sold it to a buddy . Great gun! I myself put over 600rds thru it before selling. Took it from box to range without a proper cleaning and oiling. It never missed a beat after 150rds. Took it home and put a Lakeland guiderod in it and polished the rails. Very very smooth action. Since than my buddy has put hundreds of rounds thru it without any probs.
Thanks for the great video, kind of surprised you didn't take a lot of heat for not picking the Sig. :) Please keep up the good work, I enjoy listening to people with open minds.
I own G2C and I absolutely love this gun and I’ve shot several different handguns and Taurus G2C definitely caught my attention. Not to mention the price for the G2C is a huge plus compared to other brands such as glocks and sigs.
I've shot the sig and I felt like it was a bit snappy. I bought a g2c new for $200 out the door. In it's stock configuration I shot a nice tight group at 10 yards. I have now added lakeline fiber optic sights and talon grips. I use it as my carry gun when I go fishing. I own a sig p320 compact and a few H&K pistols but I must say that little Taurus gets carried the most.
FINALLY! Someone tells the truth about Taurus. They are excellent guns at an excellent price.. I have a G2C and it has performed flawlessly. It is my 5th Taurus including revolvers, 1911s as well as Hand Cannons (44mag and 454 Casuel). The past is the past and Taurus are now making quality guns that don't break the bank.
Just so happened to see this video even though it's older video. Thank you did a very nice job of comparison and as one of the comment says it takes a lot to speak how you feel and the truth about a particular item or gun. That helps people make better choices. You don't always have to spend hundreds of dollars to get something that works well .. keep it up thanks for the insight
Thank you very much Zach! The G2C really is a good gun and at an attractive price. It means more can get into it and have some money left over for range time and ammo. Cheers brother!
I know I'm late, you posted this video 6 months ago, I must say you're on point for other reasons that I will state here. First off, I love my P365, I haven't had any issues with mine, I got mine in September of '18 and it's been flawless and yes, I'm a Sig Snob for sure. Here's the thing, if the shit were to hit the fan and I had to choose it would the G2C because there are more people with the Taurus than the Sig and there is a better chance of me finding parts for that than the Sig. Cost of course, and reliability. This update to a gun that's been thru 2 updates since the original model, and that says something. It's only gotten better over the years.
A freind has a pt 1111 g2.... has trouble breaking gun down .when trying to pull down the release the barrel doesn't detach like it's supposed to.....suggs?
Great Review, I bought the G2C after watching yours and many other videos on the taurus G2C and i have to say that i was very impressed when i took it to the range and fired. I shot incredible small groups that i have never shot with my Glock or S&W pistols. I was quite shocked that a budget friendly pistol like this could produce fantastic accuracy in my shooting ability. I handed it to my friend at the range and he too shot with great accuracy, we just looked at each other and said, who knew?, glad i made that purchase and its now on my EDC lineup, thanks for a honest review!
Nice comparision as we are going high and low here on the price spectrum which I dig....I really enjoy all these comparisons you do as very detailed and personal perspective that I can relate too so thanks....Good stuff...
I can agree on the Taurus. I have a G2C & a 24/7 PRO 1ST GEN. I absolutely love both of them & have had "0" issues. Thanks for all the videos you share with us.
I own both of these guns and like them both for different reasons and different uses. The Sig fits in my pocket and the Taurus on my hip or ankle. I have about 1200 rounds through the Taurus and no issues. About half that through the Sig and also no issues. I have big hands and the Taurus fits much better, but i like having the Sig to easily conceal.
I appreciate this guy's honesty. I have both and the G2c is more pleasant to shoot and a lot easier to be accurate with. Haven't had any malfunctions at all, on the other hand the Sig failed to go into battery when I first got it even though I polished the rails and lubed it, had to slightly files the top of the barrel breach for the problem to go away. Also had to disassemble the mag release as it was super tight and sticky. The edges of the grip needed to be sanded with 220 grit as they bit into the grip hand. Never have I had to do this much to make a brand new gun acceptable.
As a gun enthusiast I check a lot of gun channels before buying a new gun and when posible I try the guns at my local range and your reviews are among my favorites (and respected) Thank you for another awesome review
I purchased both g2c models. Black and the stainless matted for under $500 out the door. I have over 1000 rounds through them with zero problems. 115 grain ammo and 124 grain get gobbled up with no misfires. I added a technaclip for cc Appendix and the g2c is a comfortable everyday carry. I would recommend this pistol to the first time owner because of all the safety features, trigger safety, long pull on trigger ( you know when you fire the weapon that it's your choice), plus easy access thumb safety. The second strike capability is smooth. I added an aftermarket laser to the picatinny rail which is great at the range.
I got my G2c a week ago and have put at least 200 rounds through it. I am getting good groupings with it and it feels great. I'm definitely happy with the purchase and would recommend it.
Great review/compare video. I got my 1st G2 almost 2 years ago and my 4th Taurus G2C one month ago. They all have interchangeable parts. These are the first small pistol 9mm guns I have and am very happy with them. The thing I am impressed with it the most is the "Loaded Bullet indicator" on top of the receiver. No need to press check the barrel. The magazine release is high enough to be very effective and is reversible. Best and only 9mm small handguns I have.
My brother picked up a G2Ca few months ago, and I was impressed. For the money, I can't think of anything that really competes against it. If you can only afford a G2C, it's a fantastic option these days.
I love my G2C I will not sell it ever so far I'm happy to say it's one of the best guns out right now hands down. The special forces in Brazil use this pistol so in the USA it might seem cheap in price But your getting Brazil's best Mike drop.
I appreciate your honest opinion. At the end of the day it's always going to be up to the purchaser. However, it is nice to see or hear about testing and opinion from users. Good or bad! Thanks for the information and nicely done.
Great video! I can't say I'm surpprised by the decision. I am just not convinced of the 365 yet. I want one so badly but I just can't get over the negative thoughts on it. Maybe the next gen will be better. I may have to give the Taurus a go! Good, informative video brother!
Thank you very much! I do agree that the next iteration will most likely be a step in the right direction. I recommend trying the G2C. Tough to go wrong for the cost! Cheers!
I was one of the first in my area to get a G2C. In the weeks after i had a few of my friends that disliked Taurus shoot a few mags through it. They later bought and started carrying there own lol. For the price i feel its a great option for a ccw. Especially for a new carrier
I own both of these guns and love them both. I've had my Taurus PT-111 G2 for a couple years, have put several thousand rounds through it and it performs flawlessly. I purchased an Alien Gear Shapeshifter holster for it and it has been my EDC for a while. My P-365 has a bit over 1,000 rounds though it and has also had zero issues. I have a Vedder Pocket Locker holster and literally carry this in my front pocket. It is a GREAT pocket carry gun and a great option for deep concealment. I don't think you can go wrong with either of these handguns. Obviously the price points are vastly different, my PT-111 was $199 while my P-365 was $529 but the much deeper concealment options while still retaining a high round count on the P-365 made it worth the price in my opinion.
Great point about deep concealment with good capacity! The 365 definitely does that. It's tough to beat the G2C price, however. Glad your Sig has been flawless. Great to hear success stories. Thank you and cheers!
A lot of support for your findings and you can add mine to the group. I really like the the G2C . I had the P 365 and never had an issue with it but i only had 200 rds through it prior to selling. Love these comparisons !!!!
Nice review. I got the Sig and have loved it for the past 700 rounds. I think you are hearing nearly 100% of the bad reports and less then 5% of the good reports about the Sig. regardless, you do a wonderful job. Keep it up.
Great comparison review! I have been waiting for more people to conduct what seems to me to be a natural comparison. Do you want a small, high-capacity CCW pistol? Here are your two options. Tiny, Sig made, and expensive vs. small, Taurus, with higher capacity but dramatically cheaper! The only down side of the Taurus I found was the odd, particular trigger dingus. It really takes some getting used to. Once you do however, the trigger is good, the package leaves nothing to be desired, and I LIKE a true safety. The Sig is just too small for my paws, I tried. I loved its concept. I was stoked from Shot Show. It was underwhelming with just how small the grip was and that the Taurus had made something less than half the price, same zip code as far as concealability, with more capacity, and managed to avoid the failure issues which plagued the 365. I ended up gettting the Taurus for my wife's vehicle gun. There is already an aftermarket for the pistol, which I took advantage of for my lady. In the end, I really feel that Sig got beat to the punch on this one. Who wants to spend more than double (I got my Taurus for $230 with shipping and transfer fee from Bud's) for a pistol that is only slightly lighter and smaller but gives up capacity and has had function issues?
Thank you King! I do agree that the trigger on the Taurus takes some getting used to but once you do... it’s quite good. After shooting several other guns for review, it was hard coming back to the Sig. It’s tiny, but like you said, the concept is great and I think other companies will be doing something similar. Cheers as always brother!
I have both guns. I bought the Taurus for an insurance policy incase I need to send the sig back for repairs. I really like the Taurus. I paid $199.00 for mine.
OMG.......a honest review. Props to the reviewer because he did not trash either because of name recognition. He liked them both but had a honest personal preference inspired by his overall sentiments. Someone else may very well have chosen the Sig and with good conscience.
KSGunGuy, You've got a great channel. I think you are fair and very informative about the weapons you choose to test. Plus, I definitely respect your willingness to treat the Tuarus fairly in comparison to a fan favorite brand like Sig. Keep up the good work and continued success. The most hypocritical response possible is that if a Taurus made a gun with as many problems as the Sig P365 or P320 all the critics would condemn it into oblivion yet they makes excuses for the SIg. I don't own either weapon so I am not defending a brand I favor but I recognize that the Sig needs work and the Taurus may be the best under $400.00 9mm on the market. It's definitely better than my S&W M&P Shield 9mm which I just sold to buy the Walther CCP M2.
Just randomly came across this video. after watching, I'm happy with the choice to put a g2c 40s&w on layaway the other day. Sticker price for mine is $210.
Personally I like the G2c, it Is a kick butt pistol, I'd choose it over the Sig all day long, that was a nice video, I'm impressed that you chose the Taurus and that's all I have to say about that.
I bought the Taurus PT111 Millennium G2, (G2C's predecessor), about three years ago for $199 plus tax. It shot so well and looked so good that two weeks later I bought another. For what the Sig costs, I could have bought a third Taurus and still paid less than what Sig wants for their not all that special gun. Taurus reliability issues disappeared with the advent of the G2.
Great review! I have a PT111, same as the G2, less the safety lock. Yes the trigger takes some training and getting used to. But once mastered, it's a dream to shoot. Plus the reset is the bomb!
Excellent video my friend. I just bought a G2 a couple weeks ago. I remember looking at it just cos it was on sale ($189.00 !!!) When I saw it was a Taurus, I told the dealer I'll take that one. I currently own 2 Taurus firearms but have had 5 in the past. All have exceeded my expectations. Same goes for the G2. If I could add something to your great video it would be this: the G2 is a defensive carry arm. As such, the long takeup trigger is designed to be so. No one (maybe B.Munden) wants a hair trigger on a defensive firearm. You're gonna be shaky and stressed out enough in a bad situation. I love the fact it has this trigger. If one wants a target trigger, buy a target pistol. I have only put 500 rods thru mine, but have had zero failures. Hell, if I were skilled enough, I could put a 5 gallon bucket 10 ft to my right and every spent case would land in it every time. Forget the insane low price of this jewel. The G2 is now my primary carry arm because if I need it to go "bang", it will... every time. Hats off to Taurus. This one's a keeper!
Thank you Mat! I do agree about not having a hair trigger on a defensive gun. My point was more the length of pull, but once you’re there, the break is awesome as is the reset. I do agree that it’s a keeper. Cheers!
my youngest son works at a gunstore/range here in OKC. They are a SIG dealer and have sold an ass load of 365s since last year. they are starting to see more than you would expect comebacks. my father always told me to beware of anything in its first year of production. i had steered away from the 365 for this very reason. i have a SIG P-250 SECOND GEN AND ITS A WONDERFUL FIREARM. I HELD OFF TILL THE ISSUES OF THE FIRST ONES WAS REMEDIED. I MAY DO THE SAME ON THE 365. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL TAURUS FIREARMS DATING BACK TO THE EARLY 80S WHEN THEY WERE MANUFACTURED IN AN OLD SMITH AND WESSON FACTORY IN BRAZIL. THEY WERE EVERY BIT THE QUALITY AS SMITHS BACK THEN JUST NOT THE NAME. I EVEN PUT SMITH TRIGGER KITS IN THEM. I STILL LIKE TAURUS EVEN THO FRIENDS DERIDE ME FOR IT. BUT GIVEN MY ARAY OF FIREARMS I CONSIDER MYSELF VERY OPEN MINDED REGARDING BRANDS AND TYPES. I WONT LET STEREOTYPICAL THINKING CLOUD MY JUDGEMENT. ITS UP TO EACH INDIVIDUAL TO DECIDE, BUT FOR MY TWO CENTS WORTH AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME HAVING SHOT BOTH AND OWN A G2C I WOULD TAKE THE TAURUS. THATS NOT TO SAY THE SIG MIGHT NOT WIND UP IN MY VAULT ALSO AT SOME TIME SOON. JUST NOT RIGHT NOW.
It's me again. Bought my G2c two days ago and this video made me feel even better about my purchase. The G2c being compared to, of all firearms, a Sig? This is only the second time I've watched one of your reviews and being a Kansas (Wichita) man myself, has me hooked on your videos. Hickok45 had better watch out! Another great review. How do I subscribe?
Great to see you again William! The G2C is a great gun for sure. As for subscribing, just go to any of my videos and scroll down until you see subscribe and click it. Thank you and cheers!
Just bought mine and I absolutely love the Taurus G2c I do like the P365 however I have not tested it out. This was a great video because it helps me with doing a compare contrast via video since I do not own a Sig P365
My Sig P365 was back for repairs twice before I got rid of it. My $199.95 Taurus G2C has been flawless. Sometimes we get what we pay for and sometimes far less!
I, myself just did choose the Taurus G2C... after the first 130 rounds of steel cased ammo without a single hickup, I’m a real fan. Great gun for the price!
KSGunGuy I just left the store with the g2c. I just went ahead and got a new shell to go with my IWB aliengear holster. Will be carrying after a thorough cleaning(Taurus in my experience is notorious for coming super dirty/greasy/grimy) and as soon as the holster arrives. Thank you for your review it helped seal the deal.
I myself would choose the Taurus G2C. You just can't beat the price. The sig at 6 hundred dollar's, maaan I'll rather buy a Glock or CZ just to be confident an satisfied with my purchase..... Sig Nowaday's is just having to many issues with their firearms.
At the time of filming, they were generally hovering around $550 to $600. They may have dropped a little since then though locally, they are firmly at $599.
In March I paid $529.99 and that was when you couldn't find any, and it already had the XRay sights and improvements done. It's manufacture date 04 Feb 2018
Thanks for another really good comparison video. I'm finding that I'm 95 percent in agreement with you on the G2C. I actually went out and bought a second one the following weekend from the first one. And for what they were selling these for over the holiday weekend was just silly low. Rather than use any store name we'll just say it was a rather large store and it was Father's day weekend. But back to your post, it's very refreshing to see someone not judge a book by its cover, and actually give a firearm a chance to function or malfunction, perform well or poorly, etc. So thanks again. I mentioned in a previous comment on another video of yours, that a lot of folks seem to get hung up on that thumb safety, (no pun intended honestly), but unless it's getting in your way then just don't use it, if that's what someone's preference is. Also you mentioned the loaded chamber indicator, I think as a negative for you, in one of your videos I think this one or maybe more than one, but I don't have an issue with that either. The Sig SP2022 has a very similar indicator, (another firearm that in my estimation has been look down on poorly just based on initial price. Course they're not that cheap now, but when they first came out and they started talking about canceling manufacture, you could pick one up for nothing), sorry, but the Beretta 92 has a loaded chamber indicator on the extractor. The PPK has an indicator pin at the back. I don't have any issue with that either; even less than the thumb safety. Otherwise I am very curious to know if you have had an issue with it getting in your way. I haven't experienced an issue but that's not to say it can't happen. You've put a lot more rounds through yours than I have mine. Anyway thanks again for the comparison videos, I'm not through them all yet oh, but I'm working on em.
the G2C all the way. I have had put roughly 700rds of various ammo, including cheap cheap cheap ammo with no failures. Sorry to say but the Sig 365 is WAY OP... (OVER PRICED)
I bought one for my brother, he loved it. I carry a Springfield XDs. I am no longer a fan. I carry my wifes S&W shield 9mm, love the trigger! But she want's it back.. Now looking at the Taurus. BTW very good review bro!
Very good video and helped me a lot to decide to go buy the Taurus G2C and I am even a FFL dealer but the Taurus had me on the P92 ss and has been very good in everyone I have bought and sold as our family FFl business has been one of the oldest factory reps for every brand of guns sold to warehouse that sells to dealers. So over the years I have test lots of guns too and I have found the Taurus brands from their first revolvers to be outstanding and stand up to even the military standards of weapons, that i have enter into Governor/s Trophy competitions and used Taurus 92 against Berretta 92 and Colt 45. and even shot against my ownself using Browning High power against mt Taurus92 SS and the Taurus won hand down for better scores. . It kinda makes you feel like that somewhere that I lost lots of money buying really expenses guns when Taurus is so much good shooting gun for less money and more fun. Never had any problems with any brands I sell, collect , or shot. Except by buying cheap ammo that is not high velocity and Remington and Winchester High velocity ammo is still better in any semi auto gun... But I tell customers and people , price is not the issue when buying a gun. "the fit to yor hand and comfort to your shooting is the first thing to choose. Price is the last thing to decide on. " Cause if it fits you and you are comfortable with it , you can safely use. and will be please longer then if you buy one gunb over another because it was cheaper but it was half feel good gun but you rather had the other that felt better but cost so much you budget said no, and for that reason you need to take your budget( wife usually ) with you to let her feel comfortable with the gun too. But both need good gun training . Also all auto type pistols dont come with red dot on safety and i paint all my with glow red dot . and explain and old saying." If you see red , You dead, but no red your safe in on" I am a Green Beret with many years in the Military and even as much as my family still have one of the oldest Firearms Dealership in the country and i use so many weapons in Special Forces from all countries. Even i forget which way the safety flip switch goes . and in combat that will get you killed trying to flip the safety off to fire if under fire. Been There , Dont That , and caryy glow red paint to all my weapons around the world.For i may be doing covert ops and using their weapond to blend in with the people i living with in foreign countries. and after i check their guns i use. i will red dot themfor quicker response that saves lives. Mine and my ATeam is my concern. Remember there are no winners in War, Just survivors::: And I want to keep being the survivor:: ~A~ God Bless America ~A~ Airborne De Oppresso Liber ~A~

This is indicative of being a part of the golden era of guns! A "budget" gun was able to compete with a legendary manufacture like Sig for half the money. What a beautiful time to be a gun enthusiast!
Exactly
I probably wouldn't have my first pistol so soon if it wasn't for Taurus's affordable options.
Going to stick with them rather than go the Glock route.
You want to buy A Compact carry pistol? Without the Bells and Whistles, think about the selling price and how you can save on Bullets, maintenance etc. The G2C is just as Good as the others Bar None.
I'm a revolver guy. Love my wheel guns. My 19 year old son wanted my GP 100 6 inch so he traded me for his new G2C. After a little range time, it's now my every day carry gun. Love it
You just incriminated your son he can’t own pistols at 19
Boy Dad your son burnt your ass , I like my G2 also but would not take 3 of them for my RUGER GP100
I actually get ti pick mine up tomorrow
It takes a man will balls to admit that! The G2C is a definite sleeper
Haha!! I have really been taken by it. It’s a good shooter, comfortable, carryable, and priced right. Hits all the needs. Thank you and cheers CCC!
@@KSGunGuy01 Are you at the Rally? Lol
Sadly no, lol.
Channel Cat Chaser no not balls, just someone who speaks truth!
Balls too, lol.
If Taurus or Kel-Tec or Hi-Point or some other "budget gun" had the problems that the 365 had, people would be trashing them on every video review or forum. But ohhh because it's Sig, they get a pass. It's funny how gun snobbery works
Rich Smith Hahaha. Exactly right!!! The worst 2 guns that I own are Rugers. For real. They are sending JUNK out the door, these days. My Taurus guns are amazing. Period.
QUITE true! And the most incredible thing about the 365 is that it now carries this image people always thought was typical of these "budget guns." And with 3 recalls so far by Sig, $600 is quite a crapshoot! One can Google ANY brand out there -including the sacred cow Glock- and punch in "problems" after the brand, and find a lot of pissed-off people. Sure - some problems are NOT problems with the gun but with the shooter, ammo, position. But I've seen a few Rolls-Royces on flatbeds going to the shop in my life, so ANYthing is subject to problems.
I really liked the size of the P365 for a Summertime appendix carry, but with each rerelease where they didn’t ‘fix’ anything, but made improvements.... and then you STILL hear the same issues happening, I can’t purchase a platform with sustained reliability issues. I’ve switched gears and I’m looking forward to purchasing an optics ready CZ P10S in the near future.
I have 2200 rounds out of my sig with no malfunctions. Every gun company has there error guns. Even glocks have malfunctions. It's manufacturing errors
@@jamiesloan5902 eh not all rugers are bad the sr9c is nice but of course that had to go and discontinue it.
Great review......2 years later and I have no regrets choosing the G2C over other brand name carry guns. 100% reliable and fun to shoot. A homerun for Taurus !
Finally someone who’s a realist and not a gun snob .. all gun makers have great and not so great. Love my g2c carry everyday had the pt1111 always went bang
Well said and great and not so great! Thank you and cheers Dominic!
Dominic Molina the ones that are skeptical of the g2c because of the companies past dealings and their customer support. I myself have the g2c as a new gun owner did my research before I bought it. It works great for the price range and had extra money for ammo for under 300 bucks. Just take care of it and it’ll take care of you
I have one. 1500 rounds thru it. Steel case gave a few problems. Nothing too bad. Like this little gun. Front sight came off the other day at the range. First real issue.
I'm stillllll lovin my pt809 thinking of one of these smaller ones soon here
@@lonetrader1 love the 809 just purchase the pt92 this is my third Taurus and love the PT111G2 had it for 5yr would love to upgrade but Granddad always say if it ain't broke don't fix it
Totally agree. I paid $208 out the door for my G2C, reliable gun, great reviews, not too small or too large, 12+ 1 capacity, and great price. You'd be crazy to pay $600 for something else.
Well said Tom! Thank you and cheers!
@Budget Firearms how much more pricey is .40 ammo compared to 9mm??
Really? You just said that "you would be crazy to pay $600 for something else?" So, I would be "crazy" to purchase an AR-15 over the Taurus? Or, $600 for a Smith and Wesson M&P? Or, $600 for a Glock 19X? I think your statement is about as "crazy and as insane" as anything I have ever heard.
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry I do believe he means Compact vs Compact ... Taurus being around $200-300 and theSig being $600. Anything else is apples vs oranges.
@@richardrobinson5163 I hope that is what he means.
I own both, and the G2C definitely holds its own against the P365. I replaced the striker in the Sig, and have had no issues. This is a valid comparison, and you cannot go wrong with the G2C. For the price, it is the steal of the year.
Right on and well said! Thank you and cheers!
WOW!!! With respect to all the other fine opinions here, YOURS has GOT to be of the most value: you have BOTH - the ultimate empirical evidence anyone could ask for! Thanks!!
I have both too and Carry the p365. The G3C is a good gun but the 365 Is better. It has better sites, better trigger, same magazine capacity but easier to conceal.
@@RickJamesGhostGuns too little
I dont think ive ever watched at semi automatic pistol reveiw without hearing the word glock like 5 times
Agree Glock makes a great gun but plenty of other companies make guns just as good.It’s just the it brand of the times.
The comments have been telling. People still appreciate a good value over brand. Good review.
That is very true! Thank you and cheers!
I hope you appreciate a good value when your Taurus stovepipes and you catch a bullet in your groin. I used to think Kel-tec was the the chief of junk, until I traded in a p3AT (bought when it was the only .380 subcompact) which was unshootable and injured my hand, I was talked into a Taurus Spectrum. No room to describe its awful features, but it immediately dethroned Kel-tec from the Kingship of junk. I did not get it to feed a single round of any ammo. I am hoping the get rid of it soon and change good value for brand. Fortunately every other weapon I own is a "brand." Caveat emptor.
@@asaunders1406 That is just plain stupid and gun snobbery talking rright there. I have had KIMBERS STOVEPIPE AND FTE... LIKE SIG is 10000% reliable... GROW UP.
I'm on my third month of Taurus ownership and I can't believe I didn't switch earlier. Price, performance & Taurus is the antithesis of today's premium arms makers.
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
Who would've thought there'd be a day when Sig and Taurus could actually be compared regarding which one a person would rather have.
Very true. Ironically one of the most requested vids on the channel. Thank you and cheers!
I am betting SIG could make the P365 for a very similar price if they wanted to. There is no way the P365 costs three times a G2C to make
Right on. I own the P365 and the Glock 43. Ive owned the PT111 for 2 years. These dudes need to chill on the name calling.
@Shek Jesus I have a VP9. I love it, I would have been just as happy with an M&P 9 or a Taurus 92. Gun is better than no gun. If all you can afford is a hi-point then it's better than nothing. Don't be a douche.
@@bammbamm2268 this guy is a wanna be,dont waste your time probably dont even own a gun! whats the problem with owning a good gun at a great value? as I posted above I own a lot of guns,handguns,revolvers,shotguns and rifles.my taurus is what lays next to my head at night,so i trust it with my and my familys life.ive never heard a bad guy ask,,,,,,what kinda gun did you shoot me with? I hope it was a sig sauer!! lmao we are lucky that in todays market we have so may choices as all weapons manufactuers have had to pick up their game and put out quality to compete in todays market. spend the 200 buy the taurus and use the extra 400 for some training and ammo and i promise, you will never have to worry about what letters are engraved on the side of your firearm
I had a $500+ budget for a “truck gun”. I must have a gun that feels right in my hand, and I will admit I have to like the way it looks. My only other criteria were I wanted a less than full size (hey, I got smaller hands), 9mm and the mag had to hold double digits of rounds. Went to a very well stocked gun shop and handled about 12 pistols the guy recommended based on my wants, almost all of them more expensive than the Taurus. The G2C was the one that hit the marks with the least checks in the compromise column. A few hundred rounds later and I’ve learned to like the trigger and have had no issues. At half my budget, I may just go buy a 2nd one. I really dig it
Conclusion: Buy the Taurus and $250 worth of ammo to train.
Thats about 1600 rounds where i live
350 difference where I live
man i love mine
I've seen this gun at Action Impact marked up by $100 period. I don't know if it's a rip-off but it damn sure is a good gun
Just got one at a pawn shop for $200. Looks and feels like a good gun
Did alot of research on the Glock 43, sig p365, and found out about the g2c on accident. After noticing the Glocks limited capacity and the p365s problems I went with the G2c and I couldn't be happier. The G2c shoots cheap, crap ammo like a champ and I'm making shot after shot hit right on top of shots like I'm fucking Robin hood splitting arrows.
If my G2c cost me 450 I still would have paid it.
Its 2019, I have fired over 2500, never had a issue with my G2C. If you follow all the other videos on people who test this 9mm, you will see, they become to love it and its their go to conceal carry. It is such a fun gun to fire, not just for self defense, but also for plinking, practice. It has very solid utility and I have actually used it on tactical ranges in tactical maneuvers including urban combat senerios. It makes a good substitute fire arm for a possible combat situation. Its very rugged for the price. I have dropped it, loaded in my combat maneuvers, did not discharge, like a issue of prior Taurus firearms Combat training and range firing is much more vigorous than say plinking at some indoor range. It handled very well getting dirty like dust sand water, extreme cold and extreme temperatures, one good aspect is it cleans really easy, take down is simple( field strip) to clean in a hurry or a tactical condition - not like my M16 when in the Army- Most fire arms dont handle well with steel jacket ammo, so i sue only brass or aluminum. I did run steel jackets in my Taurus several times, I did notice some marring on the trigger safety, i used a light fiber tube to clearly see the barrel for cracks and stress in the barrel insides after 2500 no noticeable damage to the barrel or on the slide feed, but the trigger safety was marred, took to a gun smith, they replaced, but thats a pretty standard maintenance every gun owner should do...like oil your fire arm, after firing clean your weapon., if you take care of this G2C , you have a gem of fire arm. It 2019, most guys who have tested this had time to run many cartridges through, it has become their trusty go to .. and had some time so replacement parts are much more accessible and affordable. Not sure of other Taurus Models, but this G2C has become, in my option, the best model they have going for them , prior CEO in the company didnt know what they doing, but this new guy as CEO knows how to build a terrific fire arm. The price is still 269.00 USD, They sort of out done themselves cause this model, could be made a government issue for its durability, its accuracy right out of the box, no misfires (if using decent ammo and proper cleaning, like one is taught in the military) its a very good side arm ...and despite its short barrel being a conceal carry, its highly accurate, a very big surprise.
this jarhead will continue to carry my g2c to protect my life.. its a great gun at great deal..
Well said! Thank you and cheers!
So will this jarhead, ooh rah!!!!!!
SFMF! Same here.
I agree 100%. Semper Fi Devil Dog. Ooh raahh!!
If you like it that’s all that matters.
I work on firearms, I compete with them.
I could carry any one I want. Most days, I'm wearing a G2C.
Sometimes you just have to put price and status aside, and carry what's most functional, over what others think is cool.
The Taurus nails it.
If it works don't fix it, especially when it'll cost you hundreds of $.
I work in a gun store, and I would definitely choose the G2C over the Sig, I have 2 of them with ZERO problems and they are a plesure to shoot 👍 P.S. class video with great comparison, well done sir.
That's awesome about the G2Cs! Thank you very much and cheers!
@@KSGunGuy01 Cheers m8 🇺🇸🇮🇪🍻🍻🍻
Do you have any CZ's at your store? They cannot be found where I live, but I have a buddy who has the CZ-P10 and I've read a lot of good things about them.
@quixoticelixer lolololo I apologize,,,,, Im sure it was me who started it,,,,,, I don't hate you,,,,,, have a lovely evening. 🇮🇪🇺🇸👍,,,,,, search your self,,,,, you can be better ,,,,, we all can yeeh.
So you chose a pistol based on track record over brand name/hype. Smart. Deductive reasoning at it finest.
Thanks for approving
I'm funny like that lol I can't remember when the last time I bought something on the name alone and some people think it's strange
John Robert I don’t disagree with you, BUT there is something to a solid report/track record. For all we know High Point could make a great gun next week and most of us wouldn’t know bc we’d never buy a high point lol.
The ONLY way to buy!!! AND the most logical!!! Guns are like everything else people buy: the majority go with what is imaged as the best brand, so they end up buying a brand or image - like the packaging around a product, without checking out the product itself. This is the essence of advertising: we tend to buy packages and not products.
My buddy a retired SEAL recommended the Taurus so not surprisingly others are liking it too.
Brazilian special forces also use G2C side arm.
Not true, Brazilian special forces doesn't use G2C.
@quixoticelixer i don't own a Taurus. Yet my buddy would pass any Don Shipley SEAL test.
Agreed!...I have a glock 43, S&W Sheild, XDS and now the G2C. During my monthly range time I love shooting this gun more than the others. No issues, as this price point is just unbelievable.
Nice review of both. I like the fact that its easy to listen to and good clear camera work. I have a G2C and I am happy with it so far. Thanks.
Faced with the same choice, I went with the Taurus G2C. Added Lakeline parts (steel striker guide, steel guide rod, focal point night sights), Talon grips, and 2 18rd Mec-Gar SIG P226 mags with 3D printed grip extensions. All that and 2 holsters and I'm still below the cost of the P365.
That’s an awesome list! I’ll need to look into that stuff. Thank you for sharing and cheers!
Where can you buy the 3d printed extensions?
The Packing Patriot, I found them on Shapeways.com. EDIT: link below
You should make a video about your build!
sig p226 18 & 20rd mag. fit my g2C but jam after 1rd!
I totally agree! The G2c is a fantastic firearm! Worth far more then it’s current price tag.
Another great presentation. Thanks for the great content. Keep it up!!
Thank you very much Jim! Cheers!
great review and i like the bottom to the top price range contrast you did, very informative.
Thank you very much! Cheers!
It now in 2020 comes with a 17 round clip..and LIFETIME WARRANTY..that's right 17 PLUSS ONE ROUNDS
Had the G2C and sold it to a buddy . Great gun! I myself put over 600rds thru it before selling. Took it from box to range without a proper cleaning and oiling. It never missed a beat after 150rds. Took it home and put a Lakeland guiderod in it and polished the rails. Very very smooth action. Since than my buddy has put hundreds of rounds thru it without any probs.
Right on! I agree that they are great guns. Thank you and cheers!
Thanks for the great video, kind of surprised you didn't take a lot of heat for not picking the Sig. :) Please keep up the good work, I enjoy listening to people with open minds.
Believe me, there was som heat, lol. I just think the Taurus is very impressive, especially at a modest price point. Thank you and cheers!
I have both of these and I've had no issues with either one 2k rounds later. Thanks for the great video and comparison!
You have done an excellent AND unbiased comparison. Great work!
Thank you very much! Cheers!
I own G2C and I absolutely love this gun and I’ve shot several different handguns and Taurus G2C definitely caught my attention. Not to mention the price for the G2C is a huge plus compared to other brands such as glocks and sigs.
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
I've shot the sig and I felt like it was a bit snappy. I bought a g2c new for $200 out the door. In it's stock configuration I shot a nice tight group at 10 yards. I have now added lakeline fiber optic sights and talon grips. I use it as my carry gun when I go fishing. I own a sig p320 compact and a few H&K pistols but I must say that little Taurus gets carried the most.
That's awesome! Thank you and cheers!
Thank you.
Great real world review. Two thumbs up.
Thank you very much! Cheers!
Been waiting for this review thanks. I’m surprised no one else has done this
Glad to do it and thank you very much! Cheers!
Sig. all over priced. Glock, Walther and Smith. Better choices. Heck even a cz. And I agree. The g2c is a fine gun. Taurus nailed it.
Right on and you named some great brands. Thank you and cheers!
FINALLY! Someone tells the truth about Taurus. They are excellent guns at an excellent price.. I have a G2C and it has performed flawlessly. It is my 5th Taurus including revolvers, 1911s as well as Hand Cannons (44mag and 454 Casuel). The past is the past and Taurus are now making quality guns that don't break the bank.
Nice! I've been waiting on this one.
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
Just so happened to see this video even though it's older video. Thank you did a very nice job of comparison and as one of the comment says it takes a lot to speak how you feel and the truth about a particular item or gun. That helps people make better choices. You don't always have to spend hundreds of dollars to get something that works well .. keep it up thanks for the insight
Thank you very much Zach! The G2C really is a good gun and at an attractive price. It means more can get into it and have some money left over for range time and ammo. Cheers brother!
I know I'm late, you posted this video 6 months ago, I must say you're on point for other reasons that I will state here. First off, I love my P365, I haven't had any issues with mine, I got mine in September of '18 and it's been flawless and yes, I'm a Sig Snob for sure. Here's the thing, if the shit were to hit the fan and I had to choose it would the G2C because there are more people with the Taurus than the Sig and there is a better chance of me finding parts for that than the Sig. Cost of course, and reliability. This update to a gun that's been thru 2 updates since the original model, and that says something. It's only gotten better over the years.
Very well said and I agree! Thank you and cheers!
👏👊🙏
Great post!
As a gun store clerk i agree with you on the g2c
Thank you and cheers!
A freind has a pt 1111 g2.... has trouble breaking gun down .when trying to pull down the release the barrel doesn't detach like it's supposed to.....suggs?
Justin Maddox try pulling the trigger again after pulling the takedown pins down
I like your honest reviews. Keep them coming.
Thank you very much Abram! Cheers!
Thank you so much. I will be purchasing the g2c next month for my birthday.
FYI the g3c is out now if you haven't purchased yet. I absolutely love mine.
Great Review, I bought the G2C after watching yours and many other videos on the taurus G2C and i have to say that i was very impressed when i took it to the range and fired. I shot incredible small groups that i have never shot with my Glock or S&W pistols. I was quite shocked that a budget friendly pistol like this could produce fantastic accuracy in my shooting ability. I handed it to my friend at the range and he too shot with great accuracy, we just looked at each other and said, who knew?, glad i made that purchase and its now on my EDC lineup, thanks for a honest review!
Thank you very much! It’s a great little gun indeed. I’ve been very impressed with it. Cheers!
Nice comparision as we are going high and low here on the price spectrum which I dig....I really enjoy all these comparisons you do as very detailed and personal perspective that I can relate too so thanks....Good stuff...
Thank you Scott! Yes, definitely some big differences between these two. It made for a fun production on this one, lol. Cheers as always brother!
Thanks for making this video,
I can agree on the Taurus. I have a G2C & a 24/7 PRO 1ST GEN. I absolutely love both of them & have had "0" issues. Thanks for all the videos you share with us.
I own both of these guns and like them both for different reasons and different uses. The Sig fits in my pocket and the Taurus on my hip or ankle. I have about 1200 rounds through the Taurus and no issues. About half that through the Sig and also no issues. I have big hands and the Taurus fits much better, but i like having the Sig to easily conceal.
I appreciate this guy's honesty. I have both and the G2c is more pleasant to shoot and a lot easier to be accurate with. Haven't had any malfunctions at all, on the other hand the Sig failed to go into battery when I first got it even though I polished the rails and lubed it, had to slightly files the top of the barrel breach for the problem to go away. Also had to disassemble the mag release as it was super tight and sticky. The edges of the grip needed to be sanded with 220 grit as they bit into the grip hand. Never have I had to do this much to make a brand new gun acceptable.
Great review! Great insights! And great choice!! Finally somebody gets it right. Well done KS.
Thank you very much! It's a great gun for sure. Thank you and cheers!
As a gun enthusiast I check a lot of gun channels before buying a new gun and when posible I try the guns at my local range and your reviews are among my favorites (and respected) Thank you for another awesome review
Thank you very much Francis! That means a lot brother. Cheers!
Been carrying the G2c for 4 months with 600 plus rounds on the range without a glitch. Trust it with my life.
That’s awesome! Thank you and cheers!
I purchased both g2c models. Black and the stainless matted for under $500 out the door.
I have over 1000 rounds through them with zero problems. 115 grain ammo and 124 grain get gobbled up with no misfires. I added a technaclip for cc
Appendix and the g2c is a comfortable everyday carry.
I would recommend this pistol to the first time owner because of all the safety features, trigger safety, long pull on trigger ( you know when you fire the weapon that it's your choice), plus easy access thumb safety. The second strike capability is smooth. I added an aftermarket laser to the picatinny rail which is great at the range.
@@rcschriver Great comment!!! Where did you get the laser? I want one but can't find it.
I love the way my G2c feels and for the money you pay for it is Damm near the best gun I have ever shot
@@josearalat Armalaser TR23 red or green. I have the green and love it. Even in bright sunlight it shows up perfectly.
I got my G2c a week ago and have put at least 200 rounds through it. I am getting good groupings with it and it feels great. I'm definitely happy with the purchase and would recommend it.
That’s awesome! Glad you are liking it. Thank you and cheers!
Great review/compare video. I got my 1st G2 almost 2 years ago and my 4th Taurus G2C one month ago. They all have interchangeable parts. These are the first small pistol 9mm guns I have and am very happy with them. The thing I am impressed with it the most is the "Loaded Bullet indicator" on top of the receiver. No need to press check the barrel. The magazine release is high enough to be very effective and is reversible. Best and only 9mm small handguns I have.
Great video,very informative! 👍
Thank you very much! Cheers!
My brother picked up a G2Ca few months ago, and I was impressed. For the money, I can't think of anything that really competes against it. If you can only afford a G2C, it's a fantastic option these days.
I completely agree about the value. It’s been a very impressive gun all the way around so far. Thank you and cheers!
Sedan57Chevy ok
best gun i ever bought for any price taurus pt111, capacity,reliable,looks good, feels good, about like my wife!:)))
@@KSGunGuy01 I hear Hipoint is attempting to buy them out from making this anymore..
I love my G2C I will not sell it ever so far I'm happy to say it's one of the best guns out right now hands down.
The special forces in Brazil use this pistol so in the USA it might seem cheap in price
But your getting Brazil's best Mike drop.
I appreciate your honest opinion. At the end of the day it's always going to be up to the purchaser. However, it is nice to see or hear about testing and opinion from users. Good or bad! Thanks for the information and nicely done.
I have both and love them equally. Different clothes different guns....
Good video. Helpful and informative👍

Thank you very much Bill! Cheers!
Great video! I can't say I'm surpprised by the decision. I am just not convinced of the 365 yet. I want one so badly but I just can't get over the negative thoughts on it. Maybe the next gen will be better. I may have to give the Taurus a go! Good, informative video brother!
Thank you very much! I do agree that the next iteration will most likely be a step in the right direction. I recommend trying the G2C. Tough to go wrong for the cost! Cheers!
I was one of the first in my area to get a G2C. In the weeks after i had a few of my friends that disliked Taurus shoot a few mags through it. They later bought and started carrying there own lol. For the price i feel its a great option for a ccw. Especially for a new carrier
That’s awesome! I do agree that it’s a great gun. Thank you and cheers!
Thanks for doing the video.
My pleasure! Thank you and cheers!
Good review, I was comparing both of these guns last weekend, Nice job! I wanted the SIG but selected the Taurus.
I own both of these guns and love them both. I've had my Taurus PT-111 G2 for a couple years, have put several thousand rounds through it and it performs flawlessly. I purchased an Alien Gear Shapeshifter holster for it and it has been my EDC for a while. My P-365 has a bit over 1,000 rounds though it and has also had zero issues. I have a Vedder Pocket Locker holster and literally carry this in my front pocket. It is a GREAT pocket carry gun and a great option for deep concealment. I don't think you can go wrong with either of these handguns. Obviously the price points are vastly different, my PT-111 was $199 while my P-365 was $529 but the much deeper concealment options while still retaining a high round count on the P-365 made it worth the price in my opinion.
Great point about deep concealment with good capacity! The 365 definitely does that. It's tough to beat the G2C price, however. Glad your Sig has been flawless. Great to hear success stories. Thank you and cheers!
Greg I love my G2C Taurus, no problems, very reliable and low cost you beat that.
A lot of support for your findings and you can add mine to the group. I really like the the G2C . I had the P 365 and never had an issue with it but i only had 200 rds through it prior to selling. Love these comparisons !!!!
Thank you James! The G2C has really been impressive. I like the 365 as well, but for the money, it’s tough to beat the Taurus. Cheers!
Nice review. I got the Sig and have loved it for the past 700 rounds. I think you are hearing nearly 100% of the bad reports and less then 5% of the good reports about the Sig. regardless, you do a wonderful job. Keep it up.
Great comparison review! I have been waiting for more people to conduct what seems to me to be a natural comparison. Do you want a small, high-capacity CCW pistol? Here are your two options. Tiny, Sig made, and expensive vs. small, Taurus, with higher capacity but dramatically cheaper!
The only down side of the Taurus I found was the odd, particular trigger dingus. It really takes some getting used to. Once you do however, the trigger is good, the package leaves nothing to be desired, and I LIKE a true safety.
The Sig is just too small for my paws, I tried. I loved its concept. I was stoked from Shot Show. It was underwhelming with just how small the grip was and that the Taurus had made something less than half the price, same zip code as far as concealability, with more capacity, and managed to avoid the failure issues which plagued the 365.
I ended up gettting the Taurus for my wife's vehicle gun. There is already an aftermarket for the pistol, which I took advantage of for my lady.
In the end, I really feel that Sig got beat to the punch on this one. Who wants to spend more than double (I got my Taurus for $230 with shipping and transfer fee from Bud's) for a pistol that is only slightly lighter and smaller but gives up capacity and has had function issues?
Thank you King! I do agree that the trigger on the Taurus takes some getting used to but once you do... it’s quite good. After shooting several other guns for review, it was hard coming back to the Sig. It’s tiny, but like you said, the concept is great and I think other companies will be doing something similar. Cheers as always brother!
I have both guns. I bought the Taurus for an insurance policy incase I need to send the sig back for repairs. I really like the Taurus. I paid $199.00 for mine.
Right on! It’s a great primary or spare to have around indeed. Thank you and cheers!
OMG.......a honest review. Props to the reviewer because he did not trash either because of name recognition. He liked them both but had a honest personal preference inspired by his overall sentiments. Someone else may very well have chosen the Sig and with good conscience.
He'll yea. This is the video I Ben waiting for for a long time !!
Thanks brother! Cheers!
KSGunGuy, You've got a great channel. I think you are fair and very informative about the weapons you choose to test. Plus, I definitely respect your willingness to treat the Tuarus fairly in comparison to a fan favorite brand like Sig. Keep up the good work and continued success.
The most hypocritical response possible is that if a Taurus made a gun with as many problems as the Sig P365 or P320 all the critics would condemn it into oblivion yet they makes excuses for the SIg.
I don't own either weapon so I am not defending a brand I favor but I recognize that the Sig needs work and the Taurus may be the best under $400.00 9mm on the market. It's definitely better than my S&W M&P Shield 9mm which I just sold to buy the Walther CCP M2.
Thank you very much! That means a lot. So far, the Taurus has proven to be a worth option. I’ve continued to be impressed. Cheers!
Just randomly came across this video. after watching, I'm happy with the choice to put a g2c 40s&w on layaway the other day. Sticker price for mine is $210.
It’s a great gun indeed! Thank you for watching and cheers!
Congrats! Good choice
100% agree. love both, carry my g2c every day. never had a problem, on my 2nd 365.
Picked up my G2C a couple of weeks ago and I love it!!!
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
Personally I like the G2c, it Is a kick butt pistol, I'd choose it over the Sig all day long, that was a nice video, I'm impressed that you chose the Taurus and that's all I have to say about that.
I bought the Taurus PT111 Millennium G2, (G2C's predecessor), about three years ago for $199 plus tax. It shot so well and looked so good that two weeks later I bought another. For what the Sig costs, I could have bought a third Taurus and still paid less than what Sig wants for their not all that special gun. Taurus reliability issues disappeared with the advent of the G2.
I had my G2C over a year and I still love it.
Great review! I have a PT111, same as the G2, less the safety lock.
Yes the trigger takes some training and getting used to. But once mastered, it's a dream to shoot. Plus the reset is the bomb!
Thank you very much! Well said about the trigger and I agree. Cheers!
Excellent video my friend. I just bought a G2 a couple weeks ago. I remember looking at it just cos it was on sale ($189.00 !!!) When I saw it was a Taurus, I told the dealer I'll take that one. I currently own 2 Taurus firearms but have had 5 in the past. All have exceeded my expectations. Same goes for the G2. If I could add something to your great video it would be this: the G2 is a defensive carry arm. As such, the long takeup trigger is designed to be so. No one (maybe B.Munden) wants a hair trigger on a defensive firearm. You're gonna be shaky and stressed out enough in a bad situation. I love the fact it has this trigger. If one wants a target trigger, buy a target pistol. I have only put 500 rods thru mine, but have had zero failures. Hell, if I were skilled enough, I could put a 5 gallon bucket 10 ft to my right and every spent case would land in it every time. Forget the insane low price of this jewel. The G2 is now my primary carry arm because if I need it to go "bang", it will... every time. Hats off to Taurus. This one's a keeper!
Thank you Mat! I do agree about not having a hair trigger on a defensive gun. My point was more the length of pull, but once you’re there, the break is awesome as is the reset. I do agree that it’s a keeper. Cheers!
I am with ks on this one, love the shooting footage at our local range.
Thank you very much and cheers brother!
I got a Taurus g2c and I love it for the money you can't go wrong Taurus hit a grand slam on this one love your channel keep up the good work
I have the PT111 G2 and LOVE it!!
Thanks!!
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
my youngest son works at a gunstore/range here in OKC. They are a SIG dealer and have sold an ass load of 365s since last year. they are starting to see more than you would expect comebacks. my father always told me to beware of anything in its first year of production. i had steered away from the 365 for this very reason. i have a SIG P-250 SECOND GEN AND ITS A WONDERFUL FIREARM. I HELD OFF TILL THE ISSUES OF THE FIRST ONES WAS REMEDIED. I MAY DO THE SAME ON THE 365. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL TAURUS FIREARMS DATING BACK TO THE EARLY 80S WHEN THEY WERE MANUFACTURED IN AN OLD SMITH AND WESSON FACTORY IN BRAZIL. THEY WERE EVERY BIT THE QUALITY AS SMITHS BACK THEN JUST NOT THE NAME. I EVEN PUT SMITH TRIGGER KITS IN THEM. I STILL LIKE TAURUS EVEN THO FRIENDS DERIDE ME FOR IT. BUT GIVEN MY ARAY OF FIREARMS I CONSIDER MYSELF VERY OPEN MINDED REGARDING BRANDS AND TYPES. I WONT LET STEREOTYPICAL THINKING CLOUD MY JUDGEMENT. ITS UP TO EACH INDIVIDUAL TO DECIDE, BUT FOR MY TWO CENTS WORTH AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME HAVING SHOT BOTH AND OWN A G2C I WOULD TAKE THE TAURUS. THATS NOT TO SAY THE SIG MIGHT NOT WIND UP IN MY VAULT ALSO AT SOME TIME SOON. JUST NOT RIGHT NOW.
It's me again. Bought my G2c two days ago and this video made me feel even better about my purchase. The G2c being compared to, of all firearms, a Sig? This is only the second time I've watched one of your reviews and being a Kansas (Wichita) man myself, has me hooked on your videos. Hickok45 had better watch out! Another great review. How do I subscribe?
Great to see you again William! The G2C is a great gun for sure. As for subscribing, just go to any of my videos and scroll down until you see subscribe and click it. Thank you and cheers!
Just bought mine and I absolutely love the Taurus G2c I do like the P365 however I have not tested it out. This was a great video because it helps me with doing a compare contrast via video since I do not own a Sig P365
My Sig P365 was back for repairs twice before I got rid of it. My $199.95 Taurus G2C has been flawless. Sometimes we get what we pay for and sometimes far less!
I just bought the taurus g2 slim, I freaking love it, I have the g2 c, and I went and got the slimmer g2 S. These have made me a taurus guy.
That’s awesome! Thank you and cheers!
I, myself just did choose the Taurus G2C... after the first 130 rounds of steel cased ammo without a single hickup, I’m a real fan. Great gun for the price!
That’s awesome Dan! I agree... great gun at a great price. Thank you and cheers!
Duster Dan, do you by chance have a Plymouth Duster?
I have the g2c in .40 cal, absolutely love it!!!! It’s a snappy awesome carry pistol! Fun at the range too! Never had any issues with mine,
I’m picking up a g2c for sure if I can get the holster I’d like for it. This has been informative you’ve earned another sub.
You might look into Harry's Holsters. Excellent quality and perfect fit for the G2C. Thank you and cheers!
KSGunGuy I just left the store with the g2c. I just went ahead and got a new shell to go with my IWB aliengear holster. Will be carrying after a thorough cleaning(Taurus in my experience is notorious for coming super dirty/greasy/grimy) and as soon as the holster arrives.
Thank you for your review it helped seal the deal.
Nice Review KS, Carry On
Thanks Big J! Cheers brother!
I myself would choose the Taurus G2C. You just can't beat the price. The sig at 6 hundred dollar's, maaan I'll rather buy a Glock or CZ just to be confident an satisfied with my purchase..... Sig Nowaday's is just having to many issues with their firearms.
Armed Rebellion47, I’ve never had any issues with my other Sigs but I agree with you on the P365.
I 100% agree about the price! Thank you and cheers!
You can find the P365 for way less than $600.
At the time of filming, they were generally hovering around $550 to $600. They may have dropped a little since then though locally, they are firmly at $599.
In March I paid $529.99 and that was when you couldn't find any, and it already had the XRay sights and improvements done. It's manufacture date 04 Feb 2018
I jus subbed because of you unbiased honesty
Thank you very much! Cheers!
Thanks for another really good comparison video. I'm finding that I'm 95 percent in agreement with you on the G2C. I actually went out and bought a second one the following weekend from the first one. And for what they were selling these for over the holiday weekend was just silly low. Rather than use any store name we'll just say it was a rather large store and it was Father's day weekend. But back to your post, it's very refreshing to see someone not judge a book by its cover, and actually give a firearm a chance to function or malfunction, perform well or poorly, etc. So thanks again. I mentioned in a previous comment on another video of yours, that a lot of folks seem to get hung up on that thumb safety, (no pun intended honestly), but unless it's getting in your way then just don't use it, if that's what someone's preference is. Also you mentioned the loaded chamber indicator, I think as a negative for you, in one of your videos I think this one or maybe more than one, but I don't have an issue with that either. The Sig SP2022 has a very similar indicator, (another firearm that in my estimation has been look down on poorly just based on initial price. Course they're not that cheap now, but when they first came out and they started talking about canceling manufacture, you could pick one up for nothing), sorry, but the Beretta 92 has a loaded chamber indicator on the extractor. The PPK has an indicator pin at the back. I don't have any issue with that either; even less than the thumb safety. Otherwise I am very curious to know if you have had an issue with it getting in your way. I haven't experienced an issue but that's not to say it can't happen. You've put a lot more rounds through yours than I have mine. Anyway thanks again for the comparison videos, I'm not through them all yet oh, but I'm working on em.
the G2C all the way. I have had put roughly 700rds of various ammo, including cheap cheap cheap ammo with no failures. Sorry to say but the Sig 365 is WAY OP... (OVER PRICED)
Awesome to hear about your G2C! Thank you and cheers!
I bought one for my brother, he loved it. I carry a Springfield XDs. I am no longer a fan. I carry my wifes S&W shield 9mm, love the trigger! But she want's it back.. Now looking at the Taurus.
BTW very good review bro!
The Taurus is definitely worth checking out. It’s been 100% reliable and feels great to shoot. Thank you and cheers!
Sold my xds 9mm. Snappy gun. Bought p365.
Great video! I'm a lefty, If the g2c had ambidextrous slide and magazine release I would probably own one.
Very good video and helped me a lot to decide to go buy the Taurus G2C and I am even a FFL dealer but the Taurus had me on the P92 ss and has been very good in everyone I have bought and sold as our family FFl business has been one of the oldest factory reps for every brand of guns sold to warehouse that sells to dealers. So over the years I have test lots of guns too and I have found the Taurus brands from their first revolvers to be outstanding and stand up to even the military standards of weapons, that i have enter into Governor/s Trophy competitions and used Taurus 92 against Berretta 92 and Colt 45. and even shot against my ownself using Browning High power against mt Taurus92 SS and the Taurus won hand down for better scores. . It kinda makes you feel like that somewhere that I lost lots of money buying really expenses guns when Taurus is so much good shooting gun for less money and more fun. Never had any problems with any brands I sell, collect , or shot. Except by buying cheap ammo that is not high velocity and Remington and Winchester High velocity ammo is still better in any semi auto gun... But I tell customers and people , price is not the issue when buying a gun. "the fit to yor hand and comfort to your shooting is the first thing to choose. Price is the last thing to decide on. " Cause if it fits you and you are comfortable with it , you can safely use. and will be please longer then if you buy one gunb over another because it was cheaper but it was half feel good gun but you rather had the other that felt better but cost so much you budget said no, and for that reason you need to take your budget( wife usually ) with you to let her feel comfortable with the gun too. But both need good gun training . Also all auto type pistols dont come with red dot on safety and i paint all my with glow red dot . and explain and old saying." If you see red , You dead, but no red your safe in on" I am a Green Beret with many years in the Military and even as much as my family still have one of the oldest Firearms Dealership in the country and i use so many weapons in Special Forces from all countries. Even i forget which way the safety flip switch goes . and in combat that will get you killed trying to flip the safety off to fire if under fire. Been There , Dont That , and caryy glow red paint to all my weapons around the world.For i may be doing covert ops and using their weapond to blend in with the people i living with in foreign countries. and after i check their guns i use. i will red dot themfor quicker response that saves lives. Mine and my ATeam is my concern. Remember there are no winners in War, Just survivors::: And I want to keep being the survivor:: ~A~ God Bless America ~A~ Airborne De Oppresso Liber ~A~
