john this is definitely a hard gun to compete with for sure ! A great quality gun with numerous people send 1k plus rounds through it i man you can’t beat this gun for the price ! Amen and god bless ! Thanks for sending 5k rounds out and letting me know !! That’s awesome as hell.
The G2C was my first conceal 4 yrs ago and I absolutely love it. Put in a new stainless steel guide rod, stainless steel striker guide and a new barrel. Shot I’ve 1500 rounds with no hiccups. Eats everything I put in it. Awesome gun!!!!
@@crashlife487 and, this is important, just because a firearm is priced low, doesn't mean it's "cheap" or low quality. I have an American Tacical Imports (Philippine made) 1911 that cost me $380 out the door, and it's been as reliable as any 1911 ever produced. The G2c only has one flaw, and that's the trigger. But if you know how to use a trigger reset, the first round is the only time you can tell there's a "cheap" trigger. And if that's too much for the gun snobs? Then you can buy a $20 trigger upgrade that sincerely improves that first round trigger travel and makes it feel identical to a Glock. I believe the one I bought was Galloway Precision. I also have higher priced pistols and I've had them fail more than my budget-friendly pistols. The gun snobbery these days is unreal. I'm not brand-loyal to anything because any mechanical device can fail. I used to have a kimber that wouldn't cycle for shit. Lemons happen anywhere and everywhere, and so do fan-boys. That's why I love people like us that appreciate all firearms for what they are
As someone who owns several firearms of all price ranges, from a Staccato XC, to a Glock, Smiths and down to a Taurus g3c, I can say from personal experience, my g3c is one of my favorite pistols. Why? The grip texture is perfectly aggressive; most of my other guns move inside my grip once my hands get sweaty but not my g3c. It locks into my hands due to the very rough texture. The ergonomics are better than 99% of my other pistols. The recoil is moderate for its compact size aka very shootable. I love the recoil impulse; some guns are too snappy and uncomfortable to shoot. The gun points naturally and sights align easily. The trigger is better than both my smiths and my Glock; the reset is better than every one of my smiths and comparable to Glock. And last but not least, all of this on top of the price; bought mine for $230 brand new. My g3c is literally my 3rd favorite pistol out of my collection after my XC and my P. (Yes I own two Staccatos).
Always said plastic guns are for shooting plastic BB's, I bought a Taurus G2C and now I own 3 of them! Trigger takes a little getting used to and it's surprisingly accurate! Stay Safe and GOD Bless!!!🙏🇺🇸
Luke Tilley I might have to catch up to you this is my first I’m also in love with it ! I’m glad you love the new updated Taurus brand as much as I do. And same to you ! God bless and stay safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸💪
@@SwiggOfSauce Yeah, I have a CZ 75B and it's too big to carry in the summer time. My cousin is a Taurus freak so, I tried one and I love em! Now, as far as the CZ! Still no comparison! The CZ is the sniper rifle of the handgun world!!! But, I really like the G2C'S and I can get em for 215 dollars here!!!
Luke Tilley lol thank god your cousin let you try the guns before you made your choice that’s love lol. And you are right with the CZ my brother owns that and I love how it is so accurate and smooth my god it’s beautiful he has the p10c it’s awesome. And 215$ is such a good price ! I can get them around me for as low as 250$ in store !
@@SwiggOfSauce have 4 of these guns. Mine has over 5,500 rounds with NO problems. There was 1 box of federal steel case ammo that it didn't like. None of my guns did good with this ammo so I dont consider it a fail. My glock 26 sits in the safe collecting dust. For the money you cant get a better gun.
john I was interested in the Glock G26 but for the money I definitely can invest in something else ! I appreciate the advice and will be putting it into consideration bro !
nino _capone someone just said this same comment, and I cannot agree more ! It is such a great find, I mean all those similarities but at one low cost. Can’t beat it and can’t complain lol god bless and stay safe bro !
I have one with similar upgrades it wasn’t my first gun but for the price and going on friends first-hand experience and positive reviews on TH-cam I figured it would be an inexpensive little project gun And I am very happy with it . good job brother, keep doin what makes you happy !!!
Teako Stroud I will definitely keep on doing what makes me smile ! Appreciate your support and love brother I’m glad you feel the same way as I do on this G2C ! It has taught me so much and I can’t not love it lol happy holidays and stay safe brother !
I brought my wife one a week ago, just shot the gun today. When she shot her 1st magazine, a few shots in the next bullet didn't go in the chamber, had to load the next bullet manually. Did again a few shots later same magazine load. When I shot the next magazine no problems, so far I do like the gun, do have to get used to the tigger
Just bought the same tactical light and lasted and am waiting for it to come in the mail and was worried on how it would fit my g2c. So this video was very helpful!
I’m glad the video helped out my brother ! It’s a great light and laser ! I remember wanting someone to do a review on it, but no one did lol so I went for it ! Glad this video helped brother ! Stay safe and god bless !
I live in Las Vegas and I got a G2C for my conceal carry also and I couldn't be happier. I also replaced that little plastic striker guide and the trigger pull is so much cleaner, but if you don't wanna replace that part I noticed it does get better after I put more rounds through it.
Lrr_Of_Omikron I definitely have replaced that orange plastic sleeve into a stainless steel part and it has made it feel ten times nicer ! I’ve also changed the trigger into one of keep tinkering’s SAO trigger and it was the best 35$ I’ve spent ! Check his triggers out brother !
BR 549 awesome ! I’ve heard of good things only when I looked into the G2S. Swear these newer Taurus model handguns are making a name for themselves ! They are soon going to at least be on everyone’s top 5 must have guns very soon ! God bless bro, and thank you for watching and commenting !
I bought the G2C 5months ago and I love it and for the price I paid for it,it definitely performs well and it's very accurate,I would definitely recommend this hand gun to purchase.
Nice ! I swear whoever owns this firearm falls in love with it. Especially for its price point ! Every one needs 1 G2c in there collection, even if its there first or only gun ! thanks for watching brother and please stay safe for me !
Patrick Wilds thank you ! And nice choice ! Roll for around 100$ I think that’s what I might do as well ! How do you like your crimson trace ? Is it rechargeable ?
RickeyandAmbre Stevens my goodness that is affordable. At that price everyone should be receiving a G2C for Christmas 😂 thanks for the heads up ! You can not beat that price and I’m regularly on Palmetto’s website ! 💪 happy holidays brother and thanks for stopping by !
RickeyandAmbre Stevens - I’ve purchased two from PSA, one for me and one for my wife. Added the striker firing pin stainless steel channel liner, trigger/striker springs and Truglo night sights from Lakelinellc. Have a stainless steel guide rod from Lakeline coming to me also. The gun shot well in stock form so, I bought the G3. Did the trigger/striker pin springs and firing pin channel guide swap on it too. The G3 shoots like a dream, fits my hand better than the G2C and definitely fits my hand better than any of my Glocks. Only have a few hundred rounds through each one and they digested every round flawlessly. I think Taurus is shaking up the gun community with affordable, reliable guns with lifetime warranty. Glock, Sig, S&W... you folks paying attention?
Ivan Garcia Appreciate you bro ! This was the first video I posted on my channel, and I’m glad you like it ! I think you can tell this video is very genuine because I made it out of love lol. I saw that you subscribed and I want to say thank you for the support brother ! Make sure to keep in contact if you ever had any questions on anything ! Stay safe brother !
That just made my day brother. I'm happy my videos help inspire you to get into customizing. I never thought I would be where I am today but I just took the risk lol. If you ever need help with anything brother let me know and I will do my best to help ! Stay safe and take care !
Have you found that the Technaclip interferes with the extractor? 350 rounds on my stainless steel guide rod and striker guide. She runs like a dream. She did that anyway. 650 rounds steel, brass, aluminum cases and all the different bullet weights without one single FTF. Not one!
greasedog it has not interfered with the extractor in any way in the past 300 rounds I put through it ! And thanks for the 600 round update that’s good to know, I shoot this gun a lot it’s a fun one !
I love mine. I’ve been carrying it for a few years now and I trust it 100%. I do have to say though. Mods do need to be added due to the stock components that have plastic. But when you do, man it’s freaking reliable
NO, the stainless guide rod and striker guide do not "need" to be added. Stock pistol 11,000 rounds later and no worn out guide rod or striker guide breakage 😉
getwicked101 I believe so as well this G2C has set a high bar for other companies to compete with already just imagine the future of this company, the value most definitely has to go up. Thanks for stopping by god bless !
The pt111 g2 series has been around for awhile. I doubt the price will change much unless they start adding more features. It's biggest selling point is its price point, the further you get from that the more options/Competition they have. The only thing I would change is the sights, theres not much for aftermarket, would be nice to have more aftermarket options in line with glock or sig
For carry, upgrade the guide rod, the striker carrier, and get the overtravel trigger kit, maybe if youre feeling real snazzy then get a trigger spring kit. As far as mods go, polish the striker safety (itll take care of alot of the trigger creep on the first shot being d/a) and upgrade the sights. Remember that most interactions where a gun has to be drawn happen at less than 15 feet, if you cant hit your target with any firearm at that distance then you need to be spending more money training and put rounds down range than on fancy lights and grips. Reliability upgrades first and if you do alot of target shooting then upgrade trigger and sights. I hadnt shot my g2c in a couple months and when i pulled it out of my carry bag it had surface rust and thats the only issue ive had so far, after the first of the year im gonna have it refinished with nitride (very corrosion resistant compared to blued steel) and do the upgrades while its torn down. Plan on doing the trigger and sights to as i have xd-s mod 2 and after shooting both side by side the only complaint i had about the g2c was the sights and the first shot double double action pull is quite mushy and creepy compared to the rest
MrCamoman12 thanks for the information brother, I honestly want to nitride the G2C side to but I notice after using mother’s polish on the slide it has since not formed any rust !
Swigg OfSauce yeah ive always used clp and anti-rust patches but i think someone put there grimey hands on my gun and i just didnt know about it which is why it went back in my carry case instead of being a headboard gun. Im gonna have to look into mothers for my other guns!
Great video and thanks for posting! You definitely got the right gun, i bought a new Glock 43 and had 2 malfunctions right off the bat and with my Taurus G2c i am at 5000 rounds and not one malfunction of any type. And the so called "safe action trigger" on the Glock is total bullshit as it is not a safety at all, i don't care what anyone says. I have carried Glock most of my life and i am 60, and still have all my Glocks but i hate when Glock promotes it as a safe action trigger.... it is deceiving to new users. I carry my G2c with one in the chamber (but), i leave the safety off because i have many years of carrying my Glocks i am use to it. My only advice would be (if) you feel more comfortable having the safety on when you carry it, make sure you get lots of training in and try and get training with stressful situations so you muscle memory adjusts to the safety. Your going to get tons of critics saying to never carry with the safety on, but my theory is if it makes the gun safer to you, your going to have to realize it will slow you down in a high stress situation where split seconds count! Training is the key to everything with a gun....oh by the way...quit fanning yourself with your gun even though you know it is empty bad bad thing to do!!
Jeff Everett I appreciate these comments a lot, hey Jeff I’m glad you could give me that honest opinion between Glocks and the G2C. Since I don’t have to much money to be spending on a Glock the G2C are just as good or my opinion even better than Glocks, as well as it goes for such a low price ! Also I do go to the range at least once a week and work on my draws and making sure I take the safety off and on to build a habit, maybe after a few years of training, i would feel confident enough to carry without the safety ! And I do apologize for the fanning ! Since making this video I’ve also realized the amount of fanning I’ve done ! Lol. Cheers Jeff !
@@SwiggOfSauce The great news is you seem like a very smart person and i am glad for that. You take criticism like a man and your learning from it, and you should be proud...i think your going to be a great concealed carry benefit, for all the people around you!!
Jeff Everett I hope to be Jeff all I have is time to grow and become a better person every day ! Hey thanks a lot Jeff ! This message has made my day ! God bless !
Haha. That's funny. Glocks are very safe. They call it a safe pull trigger because it has an internal safety that doesn't allow the striker to go forward unless the trigger is fully depressed. I carry my glock locked and loaded daily with no fear of accidental discharge.
@@jwold11 Or otherwise called a "drop safety" there Einstein. i am talking about Glock misleading mostly new owners about the safe action trigger , in other words Einstein there making it sound like it has an actual safety that keeps the trigger from going off and it don't! I font want to hear all this bullshit about how its got to be pressed right in the center, fuck off its going to get someone killed if it hasn't already and been covered up!
Extremely easy to change if you dont like it. You can change at least 3 maybe 4 times. And also on Lakeline LLC you can buy just the fiber strip replacements for cheap money
thank you kindly ! I made this video hoping to help share ideas in a friendly way ! I'm glad you enjoyed my content ! makes me happy ! lol stay safe and god bless !
The wifey has a g2c, I like it so much I’m getting one of my own. Also hard to beat the lifetime warranty, she has pink one I’m getting a black one. G2c= glocks 2 costly, and be safe out there.
This is absolutely an amazing firearm for its price ! I’m glad you and your wife love it as much as I do ! Please stay safe as well and happy holidays brother !
I just got one for my girlfriend n im jealous of the thing. I would take it over a glock at the same price point. But at near half the price it isnt even close.
My first handgun was a pt1911... people hated on it in the forums, but i had over 1000 rounds through it without an issue. I think people with high dollar products in general look down on budget products. Anyway, the G2C is a Gem. Im going all in.
Randy Miller Full send brother ! I never hate on a product for its retail value. I definitely love to save money like any other human 😅 so a G2c to start off knowing nothing about firearms, I believe is such a good choice because it has been tested to be reliable by many owners. This is why I chose this as my first gun and I know people out there love it as much as I do. Thanks for watching brother and happy holidays !
Congrats on new carry gun! Very good advice not to modify trigger on carry firearm. A couple of points I would mention that are very simple: a clip is different from a magazine to older shooters! See M-1 Garand to understand the difference. Hollywood NEVER knows best. Second, the clip as a holster is convenient, but dangerous. A proper holster COVERS THE TRIGGER to make your draw stroke safer and holds the firearm in the exact same spot and cant for a smoother draw. Third, many factory guide rods are not stainless steel because they need to flex to protect the frame from damage. Please check your frame for damage after each range trip. Finally., factory guide rods are set to handle +P and regular pressure rounds. By increasing tension, you may have caused standard pressure rounds to misfeed or not eject or stove pipe. Just wanted to make you aware of some possible problems from the changes. You will get elitists telling you Taurus isn’t a good gun - my question to them is always how many they have owned. Don’t listen to the haters! Enjoy!
Greg H awesome I really appreciate that ! I am new and trying everyday to learn more ! As I’m going to the range I do keep track of what ammunition I’m using and keeping track how these new parts are doing on my G2C, so far it’s been ok ! I do keep the stock parts and pieces on the side in case of malfunctions. I will keep an eye on the feeding as well as looking into maybe taking off the laser and techna clip and finding a nice kydex for it. You’re right I did watch to many movies and referred to a magazine as a clip, but I’ve learned to not call it that it’s not the proper term and I do love the sound of the M1 grand when it empties ! But cheers and thank you for the advice I take everything into consideration!
There's also Mec Gar sig p226 18 Rd mags I believe that wrk perfect and you can buy the covers 3d printed specifically to cover...NEVER JAMS... there's videos with links..chekit out if u want...loved the video
Good video man! I love my g2c never had a single issue with it! I found that my canik tp9sf 18rd mags work just fine in the taurus also if your into that type of thing
@@SwiggOfSauce yes sir ,its more of a novelty for me to use the 18rd mag for the taurus but yeah it runs just fine, I guy on eBay sells 3d printed pieces to take up the gap of the 18rder
I’m glad this video helped you out brother ! This is the best time to do upgrades, prepare your new baby with some new parts ! Lol hopefully things are still able to be sold online, due to virus pandemic, please stay safe and take care brother !
Olight pl mini 2 or baldr mini. Definitely smaller, lighter and more reliable lights. Plus they adjust to the gun better than the one you have. When you get around to upgrading of course:) Plus, they are very affordable.
I have all the same upgrades plus keep tinkering's trigger I gotta say tho the Spartan lasermax fits this gun like it was specifically made just for it, looks awesome!! I also have the p365 and m&p shield 2.0 but I don't ti could live without the g2c just beautiful gun. Yours looks awesome son.
Martha Fisk wow you have an awesome collection, one day I will catch up to you ! Thank you for the kind words ! I love this setup and it is such a beautiful gun, hopefully there will be more after market support for this gun in the future ! This was my first handgun but this is the gun that made me fall deep in love with firearms and the whole safety and training culture ! 🇺🇸💯 god bless sir !
Had my G2C for about six months, and I love it. I did all the exact same upgrades to mine. The stainless steel guide rod from Lakeline makes the gun even better at handling the recoil. I've put 2,000 rounds through my G2C without any problems or malfunction. It's a all around great gun especially when you do the upgrades. I did replace the stock trigger with a Asmund Short Stroke Trigger from Galloway Precision. This is a great self defense gun , and great for EDC!!
Demetrius Moultrie I agree 100% I’m so glad I chose this gun as my first gun it has by far made me very happy ! I’m glad you love it as much as I do ! Keep on shooting brother and stay safe ! God bless !
I have a g2c love it without any upgrades its my daily carry with a good leather iwb holster. I also have a S&W SD40 with a few upgrades, but its more for home defense .
Well done on the video! I, too, am a G2C fan! I bought my first Taurus back in April of 2013 (a PT24/7...I'm a Taurus so I was being purposely cheesy but little did I know how much I would love the gun!) ...but never shot it until 2 months ago! (Long story short...I am a golf head and a photographer so time was limited!) I saw the G2C loved the way it felt in my hand and treated myself to an early Christmas gift! I have researched this gun for countless hours, watched damn near every video, and couldn't pass up on the price!! ($189..new ootb) I plan on upgrading mine as well so I truly appreciate what you've done with yours! Take care and stay safe out there!!
Greg Williams thank you so much for your love and support ! That is the exact reason on why I made this video because I know there has to be other people out there that feel the same way I do when I purchased this firearm, countless videos and searching high and low to see why this gun was priced so low and I’m very happy with it like you are ! Please stay safe as well brother and happy holidays to you and all your loved ones !
smokin truker ive been looking into that trigger, someone has told me about that trigger and I’m planning on replacing the trigger as well ! Are you gonna post a video on it ??
BladeArtist 205 there are still no barrels available for the G2C. But I did upgrade my G2C Trigger to one of Keep tinkering’s SAO triggers. ! Here’s a link ! Stay safe and thanks for stopping by bro ! th-cam.com/video/L5sJEZjKIx0/w-d-xo.html
qbanz although this is true there are others out there that might want to have some fun and add some attachments to there gun. I made this video and will be updating it with a red dot just because I want to have the G2C with all the extra parts just so if some one wants to pick and choose the part they want, they can apply it to there gun, I mean they do not have to do everything like I did I’m just being extra to be honest ! Thanks for stopping by god bless !
Swigg OfSauce lol I feel you...because I did kind of want to do some mods , but didn’t think it would be worth it because eventually I’m gonna trade in. Also my first legal. Good to see how beautiful the gun can actually look...all I did was order a green beam/ light combo as well from amazon ... I’m gonna trade up to G19 though very soon
qbanz this is a great first gun bro i wish you luck on the upgrade to the Glock 19. ( heard it was beautiful, I am interested in the G26.). I personally decided since this gun is my first ima keep it till I’m old. I want it to be loved because this gun got me into guns lol
I bought a g2c fully upgraded in gold from a pawn shop every things gold accept the polymer frame i love it aint seen one like it yet and got a 32 round mag from taurus
I'm about to get this gun for my birthday as a gift. Your video really made me appreciate the gun and love the work you did too it. Simple stuff for a first gun. Keep up the great work.
Oscar A. I appreciate the love ! I did this video because I know there are many people out there that’s like me ! I mean Who wouldn’t want an affordable gun that also has cheap upgrades and is also an awesome reliable gun ! Taurus has really impressed me with all there latest models recently. Happy birthday brother ! Hope you have a blast with the G2C Like I am everyday ! Cheers 🥂
I just ordered another G2c. On this one I'm gonna do Galloway precision trigger. This allows you to keep your safety trigger as well. It is a flat faced trigger
smokin truker nice brother ! Hey let me know how it feels after installing! I wanna know if it would make a big difference, was planing on getting that same trigger ! If you make a video let me know I’ll check it out bro ! 🥂🥂
I have well over 5000 rounds through my g2c completely stock. I just started my upgrade I got the lakeline striker guide spring and return spring and fire pin housing. Waiting on my trigger and fire sights. But the shit I already changed fires better than my wife's glock 43x
Jason Wold I’ve seen that on TH-cam somewhere, I wanted to ask you if you had experience with those magazines ? Like would you have to configure the p226 mag to make it fit in the G2C ?
I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but you can run P226 mags as back-ups mags for additional capacity. The G2C accepts P226 mags so they'll run the 20 rounders.
Alexander De Santis thanks brother ! Actually in this video or comment thread I don’t believe it has been mentioned. But actually I have made a whole video dedicated to that on my channel ! Those mecgar mags for the sig p226 work awesome ! Stay safe out there and god bless !
Good vid. I liked it but the audio sucks. Had to playback certain parts a few times to hear some good input I was interested in. I just bought the G2S yesterday. Love it. Identical guns just holds less rounds than the G2C.
ambioris puntier nice I feel like the G2S is a nice and small conceal carry gun ! And my bad about the audio I’m working on those edits and let me know how I’m doing on some of my newer videos ! Thanks for stopping by brother and happy holidays !
jamardns77 so mines still works amazing the lights and laser has been kicking like a champ there is an internal battery so it’s rechargeable via micro usb ! But I’ve charged my light/laser thing once in the past 2 months and it’s still going good on a charge ! Just don’t leave it charging over night that can eventually kill the battery !
Pretty similar breakdown Except on the Glock you don't have to pull the trigger , My Taurus 24/7 G2 C breaks-down the same way as the G2 does , you have to dry fire it to break it down
Keep Tinkering installed the trigger I bought from him! The stock trigger sucks big time, at least mine did. Mine hung up, didn’t fully reset each time. I sent it in to Taurus and it came back exactly the same! Having the upgraded trigger from Keep Tinkering made my G2C perfect! Love shooting it now! He has several triggers for the G2C on EBay! People will tell you to leave the trigger alone, but lots of people upgrade their guns with different triggers all the time! Huge improvement to the stock G2C trigger!
@@hb2553 when you have someone willing to do the homework and testing and then the blueprint of a product it's done really good and not just a simple add on. Its function truly works
smokin truker Very true! I tried to install the “Keep Tinkering” Curve SA/DA trigger I bought from him and lost a little spring, a little ball bearing for the safety. I’m no gun smith so I shipped my frame to Keep Tinkering and he installed it. He’s a great guy. Got it back fast and now I love shooting my G2C! So unless you’re an experienced gun smith or at least have a very good working knowledge of triggers etc I wouldn’t advise taking on trigger work yourself.
Uriah Hurst amen, appreciate the kind words bro ! It’s my first gun and I just love how perfect she is after minor upgrades. Thanks for watching bro and god bless !
FitTango as of now I completely agree ! I now carry a Glock 43x with a kydex holster that covers the trigger. I still own the G2c but I’ve taken off the techna clip and throw it into a leather holster now ! Thanks for the heads up but I 100% agree don’t risk putting any firearm on your person without a holster !
Oh! BTW, I subscribed!!! I work in the oilfield and I don't have time to make videos! Keep it up! Oh! And for people that may not know! All Taurus handguns are +P rated! Gonna get a laser for one of mine!
Luke Tilley I appreciate the love ! And I didn’t know that until now ! Thanks for the knowledge brother ! Yeah bro love how the G2C has a small attachment rail for light or laser options so handy !
Maurice Wiley I’m talking about different ratings of basically power of the round. So if it’s. +P or just P the +P are more kick more so found in self defense style rounds. So if your gun can shoot light ammo or strong ammo, it is a good reliable gun that will shoot any ammo in its caliber platform. That’s a good thing ! So the G2C in this video dose just that and it’s at such a good price you can’t go wrong. Hope this message helps brother ! God bless stay safe !
Cesar Gonzalez thank you bro I appreciate it that ! I hope this video helped you out ! That is the main reason I made this video is to inspire and motivate ! Make sure you check the links in my description I have all the parts listed on there brother ! Thanks again and god bless !
Haha gun people can be crazy and psycho. Just ignore any negativity. Trolls are everywhere. But we really are good people. Congrats on your gun and I love how enthusiastic and happy you are with the pistol. I just got one too. And I have a bunch of firearms😂 I digging it too🙌🏽 especially the price. Can’t wait to see you get more Firearms!!!
Apollo Toys and Fun Roar!!!!! Thank you for the love ! I like how you can feel my enthusiasm! And I’m already working on building my collection ! I added a few more guns to my collection after posting this video ! I’m so excited and can’t wait to share here on youtube !
slowdeaths00 thanks for the heads up ! But of course those FMJ are just for the range I should have explained in the video ! But I do use 124 gr Hornandy self defense rounds !
Yes I know in Florida if you get caught with FMJ bullets in ur conceal carry and ur not at the range you will get into trouble they want you to have hollow points
bass guy19 yes because fmj can penetrate where the hollow will expand and stay put in the target so point is you won’t hit innocent bystanders. The carry mag was being tested the next day at the range so I had filled it with some fmj rounds, lol. All my carry magazines for my guns have hollow points ! 💪💯
michael cordell the best feeling is when you order new parts for your firearm and now you just feel like a small kid waiting for Santa.. best feeling ever ! Lol hope it comes to your door soon brother !
Great video! i’m looking to pick this up as my first cc, are you able to comment links to the parts? , love the set up, i would like to add some that you have on yours, if you wouldn’t mind. once again great video!

Shane Beaudrot lol that’s the only way to think. 😂 see the wife part I wish you luck on, I recommend hiding it in your gun range bag so she won’t notice ! 😂😂😂
@@SwiggOfSauce -Sshhh! Don't tell her but I recently bought a S&W .380 ez. She hasn't found it yet. I've actually been carrying it concealed at church. U am part of a concealed carry safety team. Sad huh! That We need to carry our firearms to church.
Shane Beaudrot it is a sad world but hey at least I’m glad there is someone like you that is carrying to protect the lives of the good guys lol. Your wife doesn’t need to know ! Lol your secret is safe with me good sir ! Lol
All you need is some good self defense ammunition for home and personal defense I personally like speer gold dot or federal hst !!! But there alot of good ones I feel like using ball u might over penetrate and not in a good way player !! . IJS I never had a Taurus Fail Me Doe ...
Appreciate the advice but I’m now using hollow point federal I believe ? Not sure ima going to check tomorrow and let you know ! But the rounds that are in my magazine at the time was just some range ammo lol and so far mines has been holding it down bro lol
Roy Ayers been definitely using both of these at the range recently to test and has been great now of course I only let off about 20 self defense rounds, I dominantly use Fiocchi for the range because it’s affordable and good ammo. Stay blessed !
LORDAK you are very welcome my friend ! I went the extra mile because I want every to enjoy there experience with this gun as much as I do ! Honestly this gun right here has opened the door for me into the world of target shooting and collecting ! Cheers brother !
I sincerely hope that someone has told you (and you have learned) to get a holster. Never should a loaded gun be outside of a proper holster (covering the trigger guard completely and made of a hard, non flexible material) unless it is being fired. No hate bc I considered one of those clips when I first got into guns. I have since learned that it is extremely unsafe to carry a gun like that. Please DO NOT carry like this anymore. Somebody’s going to be hurt.
James Woodson have already ordered a kydex holster since the video and will be doing an update video ! I have been a little worried about that exposed trigger so thanks for the concern god bless !
what about people who pocket carry ? they use no hustlers the gun has a thumb and trigger safety idk I think that's a great way to carry with our printing just keep the safety on..
Thiago Freitas yes of course brother I’ll send you a link to make life easier ! Lol it’s a great light and laser combo that has recharging capabilities! HiLight P3GL 500 lm Strobe Pistol Flashlight & Green Laser Sight Combo (Air Craft Grade Aluminum USB Rechargeable Built-in Battery) for Subcompact and Compact Pistols Handguns www.amazon.com/dp/B01N76T3J5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_jV2pEbKTZRZX3
Steamboat_16 they definitely do ! My bad for the mistake, I definitely learned from the community here after posting this video. I’ve grown a lot and definitely have corrected myself since posting this video, thanks for the advice brother and stay safe ! Happy holidays !
Have you shot your handgun with the light/laser attachment ? I have had a bad experience with a different laser that looks similar but kept falling off or got loose as I unloaded the magazine!? Please send respond. Thank you ! Great video!
Redman sanchez yes ! I have shot it with this light and laser and it has never got loose or fallen off. It is secured by screwing it onto your bottom rail perfectly ! Thank you for the love much appreciated brother !
Steven Stime give it some time I can see it going towards that route ! It’s already so popular, reliable and cost effective ! I can see more companies making aftermarket parts for this Taurus G2C in the future !
I'm my opinion. 90% or higher of reviewers or one timers who want to share their opinions are all one sided about the G2c. You cant do that. Your comparing a 200.00 weapon to a 500.00 plus weapon. It's not fair to do. The G2c and S models are a firearm that stands alone. Proving a whole lot wrong. Meaning you dont need to shell out 650.00-700.00 for a quality weapon. Taurus is proving alot to everyone. It's a simple fact Taurus is gaining alot of ground and alot of respect from the world. If you look at it as a G2c and not competing to other models in a open mind. Then and only then can you honestly compare it to another weapon of your choice
@@SwiggOfSauce hope you're right about the aftermarket support, but I have the 111G2 and LakeLIne is pretty much the only vendor I've found offering anything. I added their SS return spring/guide rod, fiber sights, and the stainless firing pin sleeve (not sure what they called it) which turned my $200 PT111 G2 into a nicer piece with a ttl of $300 in it. it's a great little gun but mine took some work to get the trigger broken in. early on it was terrible I couldn't trust it not to hang up completely during the trigger pull. after break in and some polishing, it's like butter. Not sure if the G2C are as bad given they removed the security system.
Swigg OfSauce I’m sorry I bet I wasn’t the first to say that lol. But great video I just bought one and your video helped me find what I kinda want for mine
Rowan Murphy since the posting of this video I have already stopped and corrected myself. My apologies I made a mistake and now learned ! Thanks for watching and stay safe stay blessed !
@@175Vegas we need more gun owners in America, in today's climate we need all the support we can get, it's cool to correct people but let's not be aggressive or anything, to scare away new gun owners
What's the belt clip thing you have on there ? And where do you get it from? I'm a small dude so that would work alot better for me(carrying) then a big ol holster Edit .. nvm I watched the video and found it... how does it hold up? I have a lil punisher skull slide cover on mine now.. does it hold up well with "use"?
Does it really matter??? He calls it a weapon also, I call it a tool!!! Does it really matter???? You probably drive a Chevy and you probably think it's a real truck??? Does it really matter????
Hey brother! Can you Make an update video of your Taurus g2c? How is it running for the time being and did you face any issues with it? In the range? Problems with ammos? Any failures? Can you compare the reliability to Glock? I’m Super curious how it’s working out for you. Thanks 🙏🏻
G. Puga yes of course ! I am working on that video now, also working on pumping all types of content related to guns ! But definitely if there’s is ideas for videos you want to see i will 100% work on an update video for the G2C !
G2c has been proven reliable just stay away from the flex tip by Hornady. My g2c had 2 failures with them but other than that it's ate everything else 800 rounds in mine 2 failures with the flex tip Hornady.
Jeremy Guenther thank you for the heads up ! That’s not bad with 2 failures with those bullets but thanks again for testing and passing on the advice appreciate it bro !
Georg Nassmacher thank you for the advice brother ! I am still learning everyday ! Appreciate you taking the time looking out for one another! Let me know in my future videos as well if there’s anything else I can improve on or could’ve said wrong. Again thanks for being patient and understanding and god bless !
I live up above you in Wilpo (Williamsport) pa. Good vid on the G2C I got one about a month ago. Stainless on black. Put a talon grip on it and got a 15 round extended mag so far and a kydex holster. Idk what else I’ll do yet. Maybe some sights but the stock ones aren’t bad
That is all you need. ! I bought some things just to go to the range and have fun with, just glad we have this bad boy to defend ourselves during a time like this !! Please stay safe and god bless !!!
David 8719 lol thanks for the correction ! Don’t worry ! I’ve learned the lesson through the comments ! Lol but yes I do really like this gun overall so perfect !
with that clip you cant carry with one in the chamber. the safety switches off vey easily on the g2c and g2. why fiber optic sights if you already have a laser. one or the other is fine but both seem redundant. get a holster thats not made of kydex, they have plenty options out there and should find some generic ones that will fit with the light/laser as well.
AEtheGOD true thank you for the advice this gun has now been repurposed into a range and home defense gun. I will be carrying something more sleek since now this gun has a red dot on it. Check the update video and let me know what you think, it’s on my channel !
Frank Lu lol my bad bro, I was a noob at the time of posting this video but it’s ok, I’m showing I’ve learned a lot since uploading this video, it was my first one and I was learning everything off this G2c, check out my latest videos to see if I changed lol
Swigg OfSauce The keep tinkering trigger is the best mod you can make for the PT111 g2. I couldn't believe the difference, turned a good pistol into a great pistol, I recommend the S.A.O. version.
Chris Mcleod I am definitely doing this I really appreciate the honest opinion you have in it it literally made me want to get it really bad I will be doing an update on this Taurus with more upgrades and I will post a video about it !
cheitner the amount on total upgrades I did to this gun is close to correct. Also keep in mind you can do a few of these upgrades if the budget isn’t all there. I just did the most upgrades I could find because I had money left over for accessories rather then spending the full 500$ on a glock or something as my first purchase. So if the budget allows then do any upgrades that fits the budget ! Thanks for the topic that got me thinking !
Swigg OfSauce Glock $500 ,1000+ for upgrade , apex, truglo, trijicon Rmr, cerakote, custom slide with cutout, the rmr plate, streamlight, Plus the Glock Tshirt, bag and hat! And the magazine pouch and stickers, hair gel, facial & perfume, new tacticool watch, paracord bracelets 😅😅😅🇺🇸 Just busting balls! it’s a joke 🍻 We all support the second 🍻 cheers
AEtheGOD lol sorry about that I forgot I even flashed the camera ! My bad I am an idiot at times 😅 sorry if it hurt the eyes because it messed me up lol.
Great video. I work security and I'm going to use this gun with a couple extra mags. Do you know where I can get a decent mag holster for my duty belt. I would get the ones you have, but they're for inside the waist and I need something to put on the outside of my belt.
Jordon Crews thanks for the compliment bro I try ! And I in this configuration I have not found any holster for out the waistband that would fit that laser, hey when I do find something I’ll let you know ! God bless bro !
You carry for protection. Not for show and tell. Carry a weapon that WILL GO BANG EVERYTIME WITH NO MAYBE'S. Carry a Taurus revolver .38 Spl + P or a .357 magnum. Don't jack with something that may not work when you need it to save your life carry something that WORKS 1000%. Get a revolver by Taurus.
Jan Hollon I was looking into the 357 by Taurus that looks awesome I did pick up a NAA 22mag recently and it is a nice small little revolver ! I will be doing a video on that soon !
Andres Camarena that’s a great combo right there ! One for light clothing and one for when it’s colder outside ! 38 app are great from what I’ve heard !
What is a guide rod for? I am also looking for my 1st pistol an thinking about getting this one as well. Where did you get yours? If online where did you use an how much?
brad Locsta thank you for commenting ! But I am happy to explain what the guide rod is and also happy to let you know how to purchase this weapon for a good price. Ok, so the guide rod upgrade I have linked in my description is basically helping reduce recoil so when you shoot the weapon it recoil much less ! Also i bought this gun in a gun store in Philadelphia. You can go to any store and I guarantee you that you will find a Taurus G2C for around 300$. If you chose to order online I recommend Palmetto state armory, there website has hundreds-of cheap options where you can order it to your local FFL dealer and you can wait for it to go to the store of your choice and then go and pick it up when it is shipped there, this method however do take time for it to ship. Although this way of purchasing saves you a few bucks it just takes a little longer to wait for shipping ! I hope I’ve helped you out with some of this information ! If you need any help let me know ! I love helping people out when they are getting into there first gun ! I am a new gun user myself but I am learning everyday because I love it so much ! Cheers !
You can get a G2C under $200, maybe $190. They have had a $25 rebate, so as law as $165. Try kygunco.com. transfer fee to whoever they ship it to for you to pick up and sales taxes. If this is your first handgun, I'd suggest looking at a revolver. Maybe a .357 Magnum with a 4" barrell. You can shoot .38 Special and save money on ammo, load .357 when you want to. Revolvers are much more reliable, less issues, excellent first handguns. Try Taurus or Ruger revolvers. Smith&Wessons are great but too expensive. Or Charter ArmsNJ or Rock Island Armory. Lots of good used revolvers to be had.
If you guys are new shooters, congratulations! Sport shooting is a lot of fun and you can watch your skill level improve dramatically, it gives you immediate feedback. If you don't mind, let me make a few suggestions. #1 is always safety. If you don't have someone to teach you, look for a range with an instructor. A lot of videos will give you tips. Second, I wouldn't necessarily start with a 9mm. Most shooters will wind up buying multiple firearms, and a 9mm autoloader would be a good second or third purchase. Personally, I think a revolver is a good #1 gun and a wise purchase may last you a lifetime. I've got my first rifle from 48 years ago and my first handgun, a Smith & Wesson Model 27 .357 Magnum with a 6.5" barrel I bought when I was 14. Everyone needs a .22Long Rifle (.22lr)! That's the caliber of bullet, not a gun. All the techniques apply to a .22 that apply to any other caliber. But a .22 is cheap to shoot! You can buy ammo for it much cheaper than anything else. A good first autoloader could be a Ruger. I forget the model number, it kind of looks like an old German Luger in profile. You can go to their website, or any manufacturer's,to look at everything they make. If you buy on-line there are lots of sites, peruse a few and you'll find several that are consistently well priced. Good luck and good shooting!
Keith Graham hey thank you for the advice you are wise and wish you was my trainer to be honest. You are right I’ve already created a list, the 357 magnum, and a 22lr rifle of some sort are already on my list ! I’m also looking into a pump shotgun maybe a maverick 88, because of its price and high ratings. I’m very into guns and respect anyone that take the time to practice safety and safe shooting habits to protect the ones they love is inspiring. God bless and thank you again for the wisdom and advice I will be referring to your comment often !
513to205nbak lmao thank you bro it is extra but it’s my first love so you know I have to go hard on it 😂 just wait till you see the update video I just got a red dot optic on it 😂😂
Best gun for the money. So good that the rest of the industry will bring prices down to compete with the g2. 5,500 rounds thru mine with no problems.
john this is definitely a hard gun to compete with for sure ! A great quality gun with numerous people send 1k plus rounds through it i man you can’t beat this gun for the price ! Amen and god bless ! Thanks for sending 5k rounds out and letting me know !! That’s awesome as hell.
I agree. I own two.
M.J. C. So For that price why not ?? Lol im happy with my one at the moment, but never know G2C is pretty affordable could have one more lol
I love the g2c also its like tauruses version of a glock 26 mixed with a bit of hk and sig and sw
nino _capone dude if that’s not the most accurate description of the G2C then I don’t know what is ! Lol

The G2C was my first conceal 4 yrs ago and I absolutely love it. Put in a new stainless steel guide rod, stainless steel striker guide and a new barrel. Shot I’ve 1500 rounds with no hiccups. Eats everything I put in it. Awesome gun!!!!
Do you shoot steel cased ammo?
I just came here for all the hateful comments against the Taurus G2c by people who dont actually own a G2c; because if they did...they wouldn't.
Rob Wobbles agreed if they have one they will understand ! Lol
@@SwiggOfSauce no no no...let's let them keep thinking "theirs is better." Keeps the price-point down for the rest of us 😂😂🤙
Rob Wobbles actually amen to that gotta keep this secret safe so we can keep that price low lol
Right! “I only buy high quality guns” bubba, not everyone can afford a highly overpriced 3,000 dollar pistol with chrome dipped parts. Lol
@@crashlife487 and, this is important, just because a firearm is priced low, doesn't mean it's "cheap" or low quality. I have an American Tacical Imports (Philippine made) 1911 that cost me $380 out the door, and it's been as reliable as any 1911 ever produced. The G2c only has one flaw, and that's the trigger. But if you know how to use a trigger reset, the first round is the only time you can tell there's a "cheap" trigger. And if that's too much for the gun snobs? Then you can buy a $20 trigger upgrade that sincerely improves that first round trigger travel and makes it feel identical to a Glock. I believe the one I bought was Galloway Precision. I also have higher priced pistols and I've had them fail more than my budget-friendly pistols. The gun snobbery these days is unreal. I'm not brand-loyal to anything because any mechanical device can fail. I used to have a kimber that wouldn't cycle for shit. Lemons happen anywhere and everywhere, and so do fan-boys. That's why I love people like us that appreciate all firearms for what they are
Just bought mine as my first firearm/CCW. Honestly super happy with it.
I am a week or so away from doing the same. I'm dead set on getting this .40 as my 1st firearm and CCW
As someone who owns several firearms of all price ranges, from a Staccato XC, to a Glock, Smiths and down to a Taurus g3c, I can say from personal experience, my g3c is one of my favorite pistols. Why? The grip texture is perfectly aggressive; most of my other guns move inside my grip once my hands get sweaty but not my g3c. It locks into my hands due to the very rough texture. The ergonomics are better than 99% of my other pistols. The recoil is moderate for its compact size aka very shootable. I love the recoil impulse; some guns are too snappy and uncomfortable to shoot. The gun points naturally and sights align easily. The trigger is better than both my smiths and my Glock; the reset is better than every one of my smiths and comparable to Glock. And last but not least, all of this on top of the price; bought mine for $230 brand new. My g3c is literally my 3rd favorite pistol out of my collection after my XC and my P. (Yes I own two Staccatos).
Always said plastic guns are for shooting plastic BB's, I bought a Taurus G2C and now I own 3 of them! Trigger takes a little getting used to and it's surprisingly accurate! Stay Safe and GOD Bless!!!🙏🇺🇸
Luke Tilley I might have to catch up to you this is my first I’m also in love with it ! I’m glad you love the new updated Taurus brand as much as I do. And same to you ! God bless and stay safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸💪
@@SwiggOfSauce
Yeah, I have a CZ 75B and it's too big to carry in the summer time. My cousin is a Taurus freak so, I tried one and I love em! Now, as far as the CZ! Still no comparison! The CZ is the sniper rifle of the handgun world!!! But, I really like the G2C'S and I can get em for 215 dollars here!!!
Luke Tilley lol thank god your cousin let you try the guns before you made your choice that’s love lol. And you are right with the CZ my brother owns that and I love how it is so accurate and smooth my god it’s beautiful he has the p10c it’s awesome. And 215$ is such a good price ! I can get them around me for as low as 250$ in store !
@@SwiggOfSauce have 4 of these guns. Mine has over 5,500 rounds with NO problems. There was 1 box of federal steel case ammo that it didn't like. None of my guns did good with this ammo so I dont consider it a fail. My glock 26 sits in the safe collecting dust. For the money you cant get a better gun.
john I was interested in the Glock G26 but for the money I definitely can invest in something else ! I appreciate the advice and will be putting it into consideration bro !
This firearm is so cool it looks like a glock/hk/sig/s&w and is reliable also this is the best deal on the market today hands down
nino _capone someone just said this same comment, and I cannot agree more ! It is such a great find, I mean all those similarities but at one low cost. Can’t beat it and can’t complain lol god bless and stay safe bro !
Coudnt agree with you more
I have one with similar upgrades it wasn’t my first gun but for the price and going on friends first-hand experience and positive reviews on TH-cam I figured it would be an inexpensive little project gun And I am very happy with it . good job brother, keep doin what makes you happy !!!
Teako Stroud I will definitely keep on doing what makes me smile ! Appreciate your support and love brother I’m glad you feel the same way as I do on this G2C ! It has taught me so much and I can’t not love it lol happy holidays and stay safe brother !
I brought my wife one a week ago, just shot the gun today. When she shot her 1st magazine, a few shots in the next bullet didn't go in the chamber, had to load the next bullet manually. Did again a few shots later same magazine load. When I shot the next magazine no problems, so far I do like the gun, do have to get used to the tigger
Just bought the same tactical light and lasted and am waiting for it to come in the mail and was worried on how it would fit my g2c. So this video was very helpful!
I’m glad the video helped out my brother ! It’s a great light and laser ! I remember wanting someone to do a review on it, but no one did lol so I went for it ! Glad this video helped brother ! Stay safe and god bless !
What is the brand of the taclight?
I live in Las Vegas and I got a G2C for my conceal carry also and I couldn't be happier. I also replaced that little plastic striker guide and the trigger pull is so much cleaner, but if you don't wanna replace that part I noticed it does get better after I put more rounds through it.
Lrr_Of_Omikron I definitely have replaced that orange plastic sleeve into a stainless steel part and it has made it feel ten times nicer ! I’ve also changed the trigger into one of keep tinkering’s SAO trigger and it was the best 35$ I’ve spent ! Check his triggers out brother !
I've the g2s with over 1500 rounds through with the plastic guide rod and not a single issue. It's an awesome pistol.
BR 549 awesome ! I’ve heard of good things only when I looked into the G2S. Swear these newer Taurus model handguns are making a name for themselves ! They are soon going to at least be on everyone’s top 5 must have guns very soon ! God bless bro, and thank you for watching and commenting !
I bought the G2C 5months ago and I love it and for the price I paid for it,it definitely performs well and it's very accurate,I would definitely recommend this hand gun to purchase.
Nice ! I swear whoever owns this firearm falls in love with it. Especially for its price point ! Every one needs 1 G2c in there collection, even if its there first or only gun ! thanks for watching brother and please stay safe for me !
@@SwiggOfSauce Well said,it's definitely a gun to have in your collection also I added the green laser crimson trace to mine as well.
Patrick Wilds thank you ! And nice choice ! Roll for around 100$ I think that’s what I might do as well ! How do you like your crimson trace ? Is it rechargeable ?
Palmetto State armory has them for $154.99 after mail in rebate. I ordered a 2nd one a few days ago. Great gun.
RickeyandAmbre Stevens my goodness that is affordable. At that price everyone should be receiving a G2C for Christmas 😂 thanks for the heads up ! You can not beat that price and I’m regularly on Palmetto’s website ! 💪 happy holidays brother and thanks for stopping by !
Bought 4
R G holy cow ! Bro you literally went full send. I admire your inner gangsta. That’s how you do it ! Lol
RickeyandAmbre Stevens - I’ve purchased two from PSA, one for me and one for my wife. Added the striker firing pin stainless steel channel liner, trigger/striker springs and Truglo night sights from Lakelinellc. Have a stainless steel guide rod from Lakeline coming to me also. The gun shot well in stock form so, I bought the G3. Did the trigger/striker pin springs and firing pin channel guide swap on it too. The G3 shoots like a dream, fits my hand better than the G2C and definitely fits my hand better than any of my Glocks. Only have a few hundred rounds through each one and they digested every round flawlessly.
I think Taurus is shaking up the gun community with affordable, reliable guns with lifetime warranty. Glock, Sig, S&W... you folks paying attention?
bro no joke ive been watching videos all week about this gun and this video is the best no joke...
Ivan Garcia Appreciate you bro ! This was the first video I posted on my channel, and I’m glad you like it ! I think you can tell this video is very genuine because I made it out of love lol. I saw that you subscribed and I want to say thank you for the support brother ! Make sure to keep in contact if you ever had any questions on anything ! Stay safe brother !
It's a alright gun i guess I boight it as my truck gun I wouldn't trust my life with it but for 209 bucks. Its bot bad
just bought this gun today just wanna say you’ve inspired me to work on this gun too- never added to a gun ever
That just made my day brother. I'm happy my videos help inspire you to get into customizing. I never thought I would be where I am today but I just took the risk lol. If you ever need help with anything brother let me know and I will do my best to help ! Stay safe and take care !
Have you found that the Technaclip interferes with the extractor? 350 rounds on my stainless steel guide rod and striker guide. She runs like a dream. She did that anyway. 650 rounds steel, brass, aluminum cases and all the different bullet weights without one single FTF. Not one!
greasedog it has not interfered with the extractor in any way in the past 300 rounds I put through it ! And thanks for the 600 round update that’s good to know, I shoot this gun a lot it’s a fun one !
On my G2c I did the LakeLine ss guide rod. The ss firing pin sleeve and the fiber optic sights. Smooth smooth love it
smokin truker sane brother ! I love the trigger right after the as guide rod upgrade you can instantly feel the difference!
I love mine. I’ve been carrying it for a few years now and I trust it 100%. I do have to say though. Mods do need to be added due to the stock components that have plastic. But when you do, man it’s freaking reliable
NO, the stainless guide rod and striker guide do not "need" to be added. Stock pistol 11,000 rounds later and no worn out guide rod or striker guide breakage 😉
I feel like next generation they’re gunna up the price because it’s such a well received model
getwicked101 I believe so as well this G2C has set a high bar for other companies to compete with already just imagine the future of this company, the value most definitely has to go up. Thanks for stopping by god bless !
The pt111 g2 series has been around for awhile. I doubt the price will change much unless they start adding more features. It's biggest selling point is its price point, the further you get from that the more options/Competition they have. The only thing I would change is the sights, theres not much for aftermarket, would be nice to have more aftermarket options in line with glock or sig
For carry, upgrade the guide rod, the striker carrier, and get the overtravel trigger kit, maybe if youre feeling real snazzy then get a trigger spring kit. As far as mods go, polish the striker safety (itll take care of alot of the trigger creep on the first shot being d/a) and upgrade the sights. Remember that most interactions where a gun has to be drawn happen at less than 15 feet, if you cant hit your target with any firearm at that distance then you need to be spending more money training and put rounds down range than on fancy lights and grips. Reliability upgrades first and if you do alot of target shooting then upgrade trigger and sights. I hadnt shot my g2c in a couple months and when i pulled it out of my carry bag it had surface rust and thats the only issue ive had so far, after the first of the year im gonna have it refinished with nitride (very corrosion resistant compared to blued steel) and do the upgrades while its torn down. Plan on doing the trigger and sights to as i have xd-s mod 2 and after shooting both side by side the only complaint i had about the g2c was the sights and the first shot double double action pull is quite mushy and creepy compared to the rest
MrCamoman12 thanks for the information brother, I honestly want to nitride the G2C side to but I notice after using mother’s polish on the slide it has since not formed any rust !
Swigg OfSauce yeah ive always used clp and anti-rust patches but i think someone put there grimey hands on my gun and i just didnt know about it which is why it went back in my carry case instead of being a headboard gun. Im gonna have to look into mothers for my other guns!
MrCamoman12 yeah man check it out my G2c feels like butter till this day ! Let me know how it goes !
Great video and thanks for posting! You definitely got the right gun, i bought a new Glock 43 and had 2 malfunctions right off the bat and with my Taurus G2c i am at 5000 rounds and not one malfunction of any type. And the so called "safe action trigger" on the Glock is total bullshit as it is not a safety at all, i don't care what anyone says. I have carried Glock most of my life and i am 60, and still have all my Glocks but i hate when Glock promotes it as a safe action trigger.... it is deceiving to new users. I carry my G2c with one in the chamber (but), i leave the safety off because i have many years of carrying my Glocks i am use to it. My only advice would be (if) you feel more comfortable having the safety on when you carry it, make sure you get lots of training in and try and get training with stressful situations so you muscle memory adjusts to the safety. Your going to get tons of critics saying to never carry with the safety on, but my theory is if it makes the gun safer to you, your going to have to realize it will slow you down in a high stress situation where split seconds count! Training is the key to everything with a gun....oh by the way...quit fanning yourself with your gun even though you know it is empty bad bad thing to do!!
Jeff Everett I appreciate these comments a lot, hey Jeff I’m glad you could give me that honest opinion between Glocks and the G2C. Since I don’t have to much money to be spending on a Glock the G2C are just as good or my opinion even better than Glocks, as well as it goes for such a low price ! Also I do go to the range at least once a week and work on my draws and making sure I take the safety off and on to build a habit, maybe after a few years of training, i would feel confident enough to carry without the safety ! And I do apologize for the fanning ! Since making this video I’ve also realized the amount of fanning I’ve done ! Lol. Cheers Jeff !
@@SwiggOfSauce The great news is you seem like a very smart person and i am glad for that. You take criticism like a man and your learning from it, and you should be proud...i think your going to be a great concealed carry benefit, for all the people around you!!
Jeff Everett I hope to be Jeff all I have is time to grow and become a better person every day ! Hey thanks a lot Jeff ! This message has made my day ! God bless !
Haha. That's funny. Glocks are very safe. They call it a safe pull trigger because it has an internal safety that doesn't allow the striker to go forward unless the trigger is fully depressed. I carry my glock locked and loaded daily with no fear of accidental discharge.
@@jwold11 Or otherwise called a "drop safety" there Einstein. i am talking about Glock misleading mostly new owners about the safe action trigger , in other words Einstein there making it sound like it has an actual safety that keeps the trigger from going off and it don't! I font want to hear all this bullshit about how its got to be pressed right in the center, fuck off its going to get someone killed if it hasn't already and been covered up!
Extremely easy to change if you dont like it. You can change at least 3 maybe 4 times. And also on Lakeline LLC you can buy just the fiber strip replacements for cheap money
I've ordered fiber optic strips from them many times. Still an awesome website lol.
I like your setup everything looks good and has a functional purpose. Awesome video!
thank you kindly ! I made this video hoping to help share ideas in a friendly way ! I'm glad you enjoyed my content ! makes me happy ! lol stay safe and god bless !
I miss my g2c i put 5,000 rounds thrue it not one jam, really impressed i trust my life with that gun. Low drag good recoil and just tuff.
Curtas Ology I agree with you 100% probably one of the most affordable and reliable gun out right now. Why not grab another ? Lol
ballerboy doyoueven honestly this gun is gonna be with me until I pass down to a family member. But yes why get rid of it lol
The wifey has a g2c, I like it so much I’m getting one of my own. Also hard to beat the lifetime warranty, she has pink one I’m getting a black one. G2c= glocks 2 costly, and be safe out there.
This is absolutely an amazing firearm for its price ! I’m glad you and your wife love it as much as I do ! Please stay safe as well and happy holidays brother !
I just got one for my girlfriend n im jealous of the thing. I would take it over a glock at the same price point. But at near half the price it isnt even close.
Randy Miller not even close indeed my brother ! I say just ask her to gift you that back for Christmas 😅
My first handgun was a pt1911... people hated on it in the forums, but i had over 1000 rounds through it without an issue. I think people with high dollar products in general look down on budget products. Anyway, the G2C is a Gem. Im going all in.
Randy Miller Full send brother ! I never hate on a product for its retail value. I definitely love to save money like any other human 😅 so a G2c to start off knowing nothing about firearms, I believe is such a good choice because it has been tested to be reliable by many owners. This is why I chose this as my first gun and I know people out there love it as much as I do. Thanks for watching brother and happy holidays !
Congrats on new carry gun! Very good advice not to modify trigger on carry firearm. A couple of points I would mention that are very simple: a clip is different from a magazine to older shooters! See M-1 Garand to understand the difference. Hollywood NEVER knows best. Second, the clip as a holster is convenient, but dangerous. A proper holster COVERS THE TRIGGER to make your draw stroke safer and holds the firearm in the exact same spot and cant for a smoother draw. Third, many factory guide rods are not stainless steel because they need to flex to protect the frame from damage. Please check your frame for damage after each range trip. Finally., factory guide rods are set to handle +P and regular pressure rounds. By increasing tension, you may have caused standard pressure rounds to misfeed or not eject or stove pipe. Just wanted to make you aware of some possible problems from the changes. You will get elitists telling you Taurus isn’t a good gun - my question to them is always how many they have owned. Don’t listen to the haters! Enjoy!
Greg H awesome I really appreciate that ! I am new and trying everyday to learn more ! As I’m going to the range I do keep track of what ammunition I’m using and keeping track how these new parts are doing on my G2C, so far it’s been ok ! I do keep the stock parts and pieces on the side in case of malfunctions. I will keep an eye on the feeding as well as looking into maybe taking off the laser and techna clip and finding a nice kydex for it. You’re right I did watch to many movies and referred to a magazine as a clip, but I’ve learned to not call it that it’s not the proper term and I do love the sound of the M1 grand when it empties ! But cheers and thank you for the advice I take everything into consideration!
I have two their awesome. As you can see my profile picture and I'm getting two more in three weeks
I just ordered mine yesterday. It's my first weapon. I'm excited about the mods.💨💨💨
Ayyyeee, yeah modifications is always better !! Let me know how it goes !
Where'd u order from👀n how fast did u get it
My First Gun I Ever Bought & I Fell In Love🥰
There's also Mec Gar sig p226 18 Rd mags I believe that wrk perfect and you can buy the covers 3d printed specifically to cover...NEVER JAMS... there's videos with links..chekit out if u want...loved the video
NewsWithStyle much love for the info ! I appreciate it ! Checking this out right now !
@@SwiggOfSauce here's the link I watched th-cam.com/video/pklJiTjZMlc/w-d-xo.html God Bless
Good video man! I love my g2c never had a single issue with it! I found that my canik tp9sf 18rd mags work just fine in the taurus also if your into that type of thing
Colonel Sanders no way a Canic mag works in the Taurus as well ?!?
@@SwiggOfSauce yes sir ,its more of a novelty for me to use the 18rd mag for the taurus but yeah it runs just fine, I guy on eBay sells 3d printed pieces to take up the gap of the 18rder
I bought a brand new glock 27 2020, stove topped & failure to eject first 1,000 rounds. First 1500 rounds on G2C ran flawless.
Just order my G2C. I can’t wait to add these mods, this was so helpful.
I’m glad this video helped you out brother ! This is the best time to do upgrades, prepare your new baby with some new parts ! Lol hopefully things are still able to be sold online, due to virus pandemic, please stay safe and take care brother !
Swigg OfSauce You too man, be safe. I subscribed, keep up the good content.
Olight pl mini 2 or baldr mini. Definitely smaller, lighter and more reliable lights. Plus they adjust to the gun better than the one you have. When you get around to upgrading of course:)
Plus, they are very affordable.
I have all the same upgrades plus keep tinkering's trigger I gotta say tho the Spartan lasermax fits this gun like it was specifically made just for it, looks awesome!! I also have the p365 and m&p shield 2.0 but I don't ti could live without the g2c just beautiful gun. Yours looks awesome son.
Martha Fisk wow you have an awesome collection, one day I will catch up to you ! Thank you for the kind words ! I love this setup and it is such a beautiful gun, hopefully there will be more after market support for this gun in the future ! This was my first handgun but this is the gun that made me fall deep in love with firearms and the whole safety and training culture ! 🇺🇸💯 god bless sir !
Had my G2C for about six months, and I love it. I did all the exact same upgrades to mine. The stainless steel guide rod from Lakeline makes the gun even better at handling the recoil. I've put 2,000 rounds through my G2C without any problems or malfunction. It's a all around great gun especially when you do the upgrades. I did replace the stock trigger with a Asmund Short Stroke Trigger from Galloway Precision. This is a great self defense gun , and great for EDC!!
Demetrius Moultrie I agree 100% I’m so glad I chose this gun as my first gun it has by far made me very happy ! I’m glad you love it as much as I do ! Keep on shooting brother and stay safe ! God bless !
I have a g2c love it without any upgrades its my daily carry with a good leather iwb holster. I also have a S&W SD40 with a few upgrades, but its more for home defense .
Love how you have one dedicated for carry and one for home defense! Beautiful choices as well ! Thanks for the love brother and please stay safe !
@@SwiggOfSauce I just upgraded my home defense to a ATI bulldog 12 ga bullpup
Well done on the video! I, too, am a G2C fan! I bought my first Taurus back in April of 2013 (a PT24/7...I'm a Taurus so I was being purposely cheesy but little did I know how much I would love the gun!) ...but never shot it until 2 months ago! (Long story short...I am a golf head and a photographer so time was limited!) I saw the G2C loved the way it felt in my hand and treated myself to an early Christmas gift! I have researched this gun for countless hours, watched damn near every video, and couldn't pass up on the price!! ($189..new ootb) I plan on upgrading mine as well so I truly appreciate what you've done with yours! Take care and stay safe out there!!
Greg Williams thank you so much for your love and support ! That is the exact reason on why I made this video because I know there has to be other people out there that feel the same way I do when I purchased this firearm, countless videos and searching high and low to see why this gun was priced so low and I’m very happy with it like you are ! Please stay safe as well brother and happy holidays to you and all your loved ones !
Great gun. I’m getting the sights, recoil and striker guide, all from lakeline as well. Thanks
I agree bro. Went to the range and after all the upgrades this gun is beautiful ! I honestly like this stock trigger more then a glock !
I installed the Lakeline recoil spring and firing pin sleeve. It makes a big difference I really like it better
smokin truker I’m glad you like it as much as I do ! It really changed the guns overall feeling !
@@SwiggOfSauce I really like the skeletonized straight trigger from keep Tinkering it matches the trigger I have on my Ar-15. I also built that to
smokin truker ive been looking into that trigger, someone has told me about that trigger and I’m planning on replacing the trigger as well ! Are you gonna post a video on it ??
They have to make an aftermarket match grade trigger for this firearm and a threaded barrel and it would definitely become an industry standard
Do it For Exposure That is definitely all they need and That would be the last upgrades I’ll buy for this gun if they have it lol.
Do it For Exposure I wonder who will be willing to do such work ? I want to get it threaded for compensator or muzzle break. Would be neat
Erik Rodriguez that’s all I’ve been waiting for ! That’s all I need and my G2C would be complete lol
BladeArtist 205 there are still no barrels available for the G2C. But I did upgrade my G2C Trigger to one of Keep tinkering’s SAO triggers. ! Here’s a link ! Stay safe and thanks for stopping by bro !
th-cam.com/video/L5sJEZjKIx0/w-d-xo.html
I also own a G2c but this is like tricking out a 94 Honda Civic ...it already does what it needs to do for the price
qbanz although this is true there are others out there that might want to have some fun and add some attachments to there gun. I made this video and will be updating it with a red dot just because I want to have the G2C with all the extra parts just so if some one wants to pick and choose the part they want, they can apply it to there gun, I mean they do not have to do everything like I did I’m just being extra to be honest ! Thanks for stopping by god bless !
Swigg OfSauce lol I feel you...because I did kind of want to do some mods , but didn’t think it would be worth it because eventually I’m gonna trade in. Also my first legal. Good to see how beautiful the gun can actually look...all I did was order a green beam/ light combo as well from amazon ... I’m gonna trade up to G19 though very soon
qbanz this is a great first gun bro i wish you luck on the upgrade to the Glock 19. ( heard it was beautiful, I am interested in the G26.). I personally decided since this gun is my first ima keep it till I’m old. I want it to be loved because this gun got me into guns lol
Swigg OfSauce not even hating tho ...you are GONNA hate this vid in a few years when you realize you didn’t need half the shit you bought bro lol
qbanz I bet I will lol but I will also have a good laugh when I look back on this ! Lol
I bought a g2c fully upgraded in gold from a pawn shop every things gold accept the polymer frame i love it aint seen one like it yet and got a 32 round mag from taurus
Eric Tukes woah is it possible to show me this masterpiece?? I would love to see it !
You can't say that w/o having pictures.
C Lh exactly brother gotta back it up lol
I'm about to get this gun for my birthday as a gift. Your video really made me appreciate the gun and love the work you did too it. Simple stuff for a first gun. Keep up the great work.
Oscar A. I appreciate the love ! I did this video because I know there are many people out there that’s like me ! I mean Who wouldn’t want an affordable gun that also has cheap upgrades and is also an awesome reliable gun ! Taurus has really impressed me with all there latest models recently. Happy birthday brother ! Hope you have a blast with the G2C Like I am everyday ! Cheers 🥂
I just ordered another G2c. On this one I'm gonna do Galloway precision trigger. This allows you to keep your safety trigger as well. It is a flat faced trigger
smokin truker nice brother ! Hey let me know how it feels after installing! I wanna know if it would make a big difference, was planing on getting that same trigger ! If you make a video let me know I’ll check it out bro ! 🥂🥂
I put a galloway in but didn't like it much. I did get the keep tinkering psuedo back strap sao trigger in and it feels great.
chanceymikew you and smokin turk persuaded me on the keep tinkering thanks guys !
Keep tinkering has a new video up on TH-cam showing his new triggers. Check him out see what he has added
smokin truker on my way to check it out now thanks !
Very nice video.
Awesome upgrades
John Johnson you’re an awesome person for giving that compliment thank you and god bless !
I have well over 5000 rounds through my g2c completely stock. I just started my upgrade I got the lakeline striker guide spring and return spring and fire pin housing. Waiting on my trigger and fire sights. But the shit I already changed fires better than my wife's glock 43x
david sero Damn ! That’s a lot of rounds ! As you should brother ! Small upgrades to this G2C dose wonders ! Especially he trigger by keep tinkering !
good job bro 💯💯😱turn is blues show love no haters for 2019-2022 some Dallas to Fort Worth to H-Town you will be blessed💯💯
Michael Williams thanks bro appreciate the love stay blessed !
The 32 round mag for that little pistol is impractical my friend. Get a couple mecgar sig p226 mags. They work perfectly in the g2c
Jason Wold I’ve seen that on TH-cam somewhere, I wanted to ask you if you had experience with those magazines ? Like would you have to configure the p226 mag to make it fit in the G2C ?
@@SwiggOfSauce I don't own one yet but from what I understand the fit with no modification needed.
Jason Wold awesome thanks for the heads up ima go grab me some mags now lol
The g2c is aweasome. I also have the g3 which is my EDC. Both are excellent guns. Put a 1000 rounds down each and never one failure.
I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but you can run P226 mags as back-ups mags for additional capacity. The G2C accepts P226 mags so they'll run the 20 rounders.
Alexander De Santis thanks brother ! Actually in this video or comment thread I don’t believe it has been mentioned. But actually I have made a whole video dedicated to that on my channel ! Those mecgar mags for the sig p226 work awesome ! Stay safe out there and god bless !
Good vid. I liked it but the audio sucks. Had to playback certain parts a few times to hear some good input I was interested in. I just bought the G2S yesterday. Love it. Identical guns just holds less rounds than the G2C.
ambioris puntier nice I feel like the G2S is a nice and small conceal carry gun ! And my bad about the audio I’m working on those edits and let me know how I’m doing on some of my newer videos ! Thanks for stopping by brother and happy holidays !
Does your laser still work? I've been thinking about buying one but i read the reviews on Amazon and ppl are saying theirs went out...let me know
jamardns77 so mines still works amazing the lights and laser has been kicking like a champ there is an internal battery so it’s rechargeable via micro usb ! But I’ve charged my light/laser thing once in the past 2 months and it’s still going good on a charge ! Just don’t leave it charging over night that can eventually kill the battery !
@@SwiggOfSauce thanks bro
jamardns77 anytime bro ! Need anything just let me know !
Swigg OfSauce Where Can I Get Mine From For My Attachment
Just got this gun yesterday as my first firearm! Can't wait to get on the range with it.
Yea keep tinkering does a good video of just the back strap. It's a nice trigger
Update, I'm in love with the trigger brother check out my latest video, I chose the Straight SAO trigger shoe. Let me know what you think !
Pretty similar breakdown Except on the Glock you don't have to pull the trigger , My Taurus 24/7 G2 C breaks-down the same way as the G2 does , you have to dry fire it to break it down
James arwood yeah after dry firing the release slides off ! Love the simplicity!
Looks great! I love the G2c! God bless you and yours :-)
The Kentucky Patriot thanks for coming and checking my video out this is why I love the gun community! God bless !!
You did right with your upgrades. The best upgrade is the Keep Tinkering Single Action Trigger. The trigger safety is a weak point on that gun.
A youtuber name is Keep Tinkering has made custom triggers for the G2. So far he has 4. Sold on ebay for 30.00 each
smokin truker I think I’ve seen these triggers you’re talking about. Have you tried them out ?
Keep Tinkering installed the trigger I bought from him! The stock trigger sucks big time, at least mine did. Mine hung up, didn’t fully reset each time. I sent it in to Taurus and it came back exactly the same! Having the upgraded trigger from Keep Tinkering made my G2C perfect! Love shooting it now! He has several triggers for the G2C on EBay! People will tell you to leave the trigger alone, but lots of people upgrade their guns with different triggers all the time! Huge improvement to the stock G2C trigger!
hb2553 ok I’m next definitely need a trigger upgrade lol
@@hb2553 when you have someone willing to do the homework and testing and then the blueprint of a product it's done really good and not just a simple add on. Its function truly works
smokin truker Very true! I tried to install the “Keep Tinkering” Curve SA/DA trigger I bought from him and lost a little spring, a little ball bearing for the safety. I’m no gun smith so I shipped my frame to Keep Tinkering and he installed it. He’s a great guy. Got it back fast and now I love shooting my G2C! So unless you’re an experienced gun smith or at least have a very good working knowledge of triggers etc I wouldn’t advise taking on trigger work yourself.
Cool ass video of simple upgrades that make you edc weapon look cool but not jeopardizing reliability !
Uriah Hurst amen, appreciate the kind words bro ! It’s my first gun and I just love how perfect she is after minor upgrades. Thanks for watching bro and god bless !
Could you post the links to the parts? I just bought this weapon.
Se7vinDeadlySins yes of course brother here you go ! I hope this helps you out ! Let me know if you needed anything else !

wot dephoque you are absolutely correct ! Sorry about that mistake !
Se7vinDeadlySins i
The first thing you need is good instruction and a holster. Anyone with any experience will stress not to carry that without a holster!
FitTango as of now I completely agree ! I now carry a Glock 43x with a kydex holster that covers the trigger. I still own the G2c but I’ve taken off the techna clip and throw it into a leather holster now ! Thanks for the heads up but I 100% agree don’t risk putting any firearm on your person without a holster !
Oh! BTW, I subscribed!!! I work in the oilfield and I don't have time to make videos! Keep it up! Oh! And for people that may not know! All Taurus handguns are +P rated! Gonna get a laser for one of mine!
Luke Tilley I appreciate the love ! And I didn’t know that until now ! Thanks for the knowledge brother ! Yeah bro love how the G2C has a small attachment rail for light or laser options so handy !
Luke what do you mean by +P rated?
Maurice Wiley I’m talking about different ratings of basically power of the round. So if it’s. +P or just P the +P are more kick more so found in self defense style rounds. So if your gun can shoot light ammo or strong ammo, it is a good reliable gun that will shoot any ammo in its caliber platform. That’s a good thing ! So the G2C in this video dose just that and it’s at such a good price you can’t go wrong. Hope this message helps brother ! God bless stay safe !
@@SwiggOfSauce thanks my dude. I have one it handles pretty good.
@@kingw1280 Anytime bro im glad you like it as much as me it handles like a dream ! thanks for stopping by bro !

Haha gun people can be crazy and psycho. Just ignore any negativity. Trolls are everywhere. But we really are good people. Congrats on your gun and I love how enthusiastic and happy you are with the pistol. I just got one too. And I have a bunch of firearms😂 I digging it too🙌🏽 especially the price. Can’t wait to see you get more Firearms!!!
Apollo Toys and Fun Roar!!!!! Thank you for the love ! I like how you can feel my enthusiasm! And I’m already working on building my collection ! I added a few more guns to my collection after posting this video ! I’m so excited and can’t wait to share here on youtube !
Keep tinkering just added about 4 more styles of triggers for the G2c so now has I believe 7 now
smokin truker I like that curve SAO short stroke or pseudo blackstrap !
you said carry mag but I notice you have fmj rounds and not hollow point,!!! dont forget collateral damage is higher with fmj
slowdeaths00 thanks for the heads up ! But of course those FMJ are just for the range I should have explained in the video ! But I do use 124 gr Hornandy self defense rounds !
HST all day !!
James arwood good choice !! Lol
Yes I know in Florida if you get caught with FMJ bullets in ur conceal carry and ur not at the range you will get into trouble they want you to have hollow points
bass guy19 yes because fmj can penetrate where the hollow will expand and stay put in the target so point is you won’t hit innocent bystanders. The carry mag was being tested the next day at the range so I had filled it with some fmj rounds, lol. All my carry magazines for my guns have hollow points ! 💪💯
Just ordered my lakeline guide rod can't wait honestly nice vid
michael cordell the best feeling is when you order new parts for your firearm and now you just feel like a small kid waiting for Santa.. best feeling ever ! Lol hope it comes to your door soon brother !
Great video! i’m looking to pick this up as my first cc, are you able to comment links to the parts? , love the set up, i would like to add some that you have on yours, if you wouldn’t mind. once again great video!

I see a clip mounted on the side of slide. However, I didn't see a magazine inserted. Nice G2. I'm thinking of adding one to my arsenal.
Shane Beaudrot lol exactly. Also it’s never a bad idea to buy a new gun to help you protect your older gun lol !
@@SwiggOfSauce - I like the way you think. Now if I can convince my wife of that.
Shane Beaudrot lol that’s the only way to think. 😂 see the wife part I wish you luck on, I recommend hiding it in your gun range bag so she won’t notice ! 😂😂😂
@@SwiggOfSauce -Sshhh! Don't tell her but I recently bought a S&W .380 ez. She hasn't found it yet. I've actually been carrying it concealed at church. U am part of a concealed carry safety team. Sad huh! That We need to carry our firearms to church.
Shane Beaudrot it is a sad world but hey at least I’m glad there is someone like you that is carrying to protect the lives of the good guys lol. Your wife doesn’t need to know ! Lol your secret is safe with me good sir ! Lol
All you need is some good self defense ammunition for home and personal defense I personally like speer gold dot or federal hst !!! But there alot of good ones I feel like using ball u might over penetrate and not in a good way player !! . IJS I never had a Taurus Fail Me Doe ...
Appreciate the advice but I’m now using hollow point federal I believe ? Not sure ima going to check tomorrow and let you know ! But the rounds that are in my magazine at the time was just some range ammo lol and so far mines has been holding it down bro lol
Roy Ayers been definitely using both of these at the range recently to test and has been great now of course I only let off about 20 self defense rounds, I dominantly use Fiocchi for the range because it’s affordable and good ammo. Stay blessed !
Roy Ayers cheap and reliable is all you need ! 🇺🇸
Great video! Just picked up the stainless steel G2c for a range toy. Thanks for linking all the parts in description!!!!
LORDAK you are very welcome my friend ! I went the extra mile because I want every to enjoy there experience with this gun as much as I do ! Honestly this gun right here has opened the door for me into the world of target shooting and collecting ! Cheers brother !
I sincerely hope that someone has told you (and you have learned) to get a holster. Never should a loaded gun be outside of a proper holster (covering the trigger guard completely and made of a hard, non flexible material) unless it is being fired. No hate bc I considered one of those clips when I first got into guns. I have since learned that it is extremely unsafe to carry a gun like that. Please DO NOT carry like this anymore. Somebody’s going to be hurt.
James Woodson have already ordered a kydex holster since the video and will be doing an update video ! I have been a little worried about that exposed trigger so thanks for the concern god bless !
like the cop at his sons little league game when it went off into the bleachers cuz of his techna clip xD
OSK_Haru I didn’t hear about this, I’m looking that up lol
I was thinking the same thing when I seen that clip. Definitely dangerous
what about people who pocket carry ? they use no hustlers the gun has a thumb and trigger safety idk I think that's a great way to carry with our printing just keep the safety on..
Hey there.. what's the name of laser light ? Hilight pxl? Ive looked on ebay and i coudnt find ..I think I looks great thinking about getting one ..
Thiago Freitas yes of course brother I’ll send you a link to make life easier ! Lol it’s a great light and laser combo that has recharging capabilities!

Pistols don't use "clips", they use magazines!
Steamboat_16 they definitely do ! My bad for the mistake, I definitely learned from the community here after posting this video. I’ve grown a lot and definitely have corrected myself since posting this video, thanks for the advice brother and stay safe ! Happy holidays !
Have you shot your handgun with the light/laser attachment ?
I have had a bad experience with a different laser that looks similar but kept falling off or got loose as I unloaded the magazine!? Please send respond. Thank you ! Great video!
Redman sanchez yes ! I have shot it with this light and laser and it has never got loose or fallen off. It is secured by screwing it onto your bottom rail perfectly ! Thank you for the love much appreciated brother !
Redman just ordered a light and laser for mine. Would you lmk if it's this one?

Taurus G2C will be the next gen 3 glock
Steven Stime give it some time I can see it going towards that route ! It’s already so popular, reliable and cost effective ! I can see more companies making aftermarket parts for this Taurus G2C in the future !
@@SwiggOfSauce do they make a .40 yet?
Steven Stime yes they do ! They have the Taurus TH40 it’s a 15round 40. S&W and it sells for around 380$ on the Taurus website. Check them out bro !
I'm my opinion. 90% or higher of reviewers or one timers who want to share their opinions are all one sided about the G2c. You cant do that. Your comparing a 200.00 weapon to a 500.00 plus weapon. It's not fair to do. The G2c and S models are a firearm that stands alone. Proving a whole lot wrong. Meaning you dont need to shell out 650.00-700.00 for a quality weapon. Taurus is proving alot to everyone. It's a simple fact Taurus is gaining alot of ground and alot of respect from the world. If you look at it as a G2c and not competing to other models in a open mind. Then and only then can you honestly compare it to another weapon of your choice
@@SwiggOfSauce hope you're right about the aftermarket support, but I have the 111G2 and LakeLIne is pretty much the only vendor I've found offering anything. I added their SS return spring/guide rod, fiber sights, and the stainless firing pin sleeve (not sure what they called it) which turned my $200 PT111 G2 into a nicer piece with a ttl of $300 in it. it's a great little gun but mine took some work to get the trigger broken in. early on it was terrible I couldn't trust it not to hang up completely during the trigger pull. after break in and some polishing, it's like butter. Not sure if the G2C are as bad given they removed the security system.
The clip is going to be my first upgrade. It makes the most sense to me over a case for similar reasons.
clip no clip.... please say magazine...
I promise this is my first and last time lol
Swigg OfSauce I’m sorry I bet I wasn’t the first to say that lol. But great video I just bought one and your video helped me find what I kinda want for mine
Neo Overby lol no need to apologize but you are welcome sir ! I tried my best sorry about clip tho lol
Only assholes get triggered at clips/magazines...... honestly I think clips are for pistols magazines are for rifles and even then-WHO CARES!!
Gorilla UMP lol if it fits it fits 🇺🇸😂
Hey, I’m in Philadelphia as well. Which gun shop did you get it from? I’m looking forward to making the g2cmy first carry weapon as well.
Check out locks gun store in northeast Philadelphia! The best store ! Tell them swigg OfSauce sent you and they will show you mad love !
Stop calling magazines clips
Rowan Murphy since the posting of this video I have already stopped and corrected myself. My apologies I made a mistake and now learned ! Thanks for watching and stay safe stay blessed !
Clip 🤨
@@175Vegas we need more gun owners in America, in today's climate we need all the support we can get, it's cool to correct people but let's not be aggressive or anything, to scare away new gun owners
Clips, bruh clips. Watcha gonna do?
Luh Vegas right. Clips my guy.
What's the belt clip thing you have on there ? And where do you get it from? I'm a small dude so that would work alot better for me(carrying) then a big ol holster
Edit .. nvm I watched the video and found it... how does it hold up? I have a lil punisher skull slide cover on mine now.. does it hold up well with "use"?
Don't call it a clip.
ZZ Top I’m sorry, you’re right. Magazine would be the correct term if you’re referring to that. My bad !
Does it really matter??? He calls it a weapon also, I call it a tool!!! Does it really matter???? You probably drive a Chevy and you probably think it's a real truck??? Does it really matter????
@@SwiggOfSauce
Don't apologize!!! You do you Brother!
Luke Tilley you are the man thank you ! 💯💪🇺🇸
@big sack
I looked up big sack on TH-cam and it came up all kinda stuff. Can you be more specific? Thanks!🙏🇺🇸
Hey brother! Can you Make an update video of your Taurus g2c? How is it running for the time being and did you face any issues with it? In the range? Problems with ammos? Any failures?
Can you compare the reliability to Glock?
I’m Super curious how it’s working out for you.
Thanks 🙏🏻
G. Puga yes of course ! I am working on that video now, also working on pumping all types of content related to guns ! But definitely if there’s is ideas for videos you want to see i will 100% work on an update video for the G2C !
G2c has been proven reliable just stay away from the flex tip by Hornady. My g2c had 2 failures with them but other than that it's ate everything else 800 rounds in mine 2 failures with the flex tip Hornady.
Jeremy Guenther thank you for the heads up ! That’s not bad with 2 failures with those bullets but thanks again for testing and passing on the advice appreciate it bro !
@@SwiggOfSauce naw not bad at all this is my 3rd taurus g2c I had the. 40 and two of the 9mm great guns
Jeremy Guenther great guns indeed ! I was just watching reviews on the 40 ! So awesome 👏
Magazine not clip and it's a firearm not weapon. Thank you good job on review
Georg Nassmacher thank you for the advice brother ! I am still learning everyday ! Appreciate you taking the time looking out for one another! Let me know in my future videos as well if there’s anything else I can improve on or could’ve said wrong. Again thanks for being patient and understanding and god bless !
d_tha_great 504 lmao ! Appreciate that brother I think I got a new name for mag lol
There always that one guy....
I live up above you in Wilpo (Williamsport) pa. Good vid on the G2C I got one about a month ago. Stainless on black. Put a talon grip on it and got a 15 round extended mag so far and a kydex holster. Idk what else I’ll do yet. Maybe some sights but the stock ones aren’t bad
That is all you need. ! I bought some things just to go to the range and have fun with, just glad we have this bad boy to defend ourselves during a time like this !! Please stay safe and god bless !!!
Magazine kid 🧒 but it’s a shooter my brother has one ☝️
David 8719 lol thanks for the correction ! Don’t worry ! I’ve learned the lesson through the comments ! Lol but yes I do really like this gun overall so perfect !
Clips or mags. Both the same shit
with that clip you cant carry with one in the chamber. the safety switches off vey easily on the g2c and g2. why fiber optic sights if you already have a laser. one or the other is fine but both seem redundant. get a holster thats not made of kydex, they have plenty options out there and should find some generic ones that will fit with the light/laser as well.
AEtheGOD true thank you for the advice this gun has now been repurposed into a range and home defense gun. I will be carrying something more sleek since now this gun has a red dot on it. Check the update video and let me know what you think, it’s on my channel !
clip and bullet... really bro... Magazines and round
Frank Lu lol my bad bro, I was a noob at the time of posting this video but it’s ok, I’m showing I’ve learned a lot since uploading this video, it was my first one and I was learning everything off this G2c, check out my latest videos to see if I changed lol
Potato potato lmao
Daniel Ramirez exactly ! Lol
If you want to get rid of the safety trigger. That's the little extra piece built into the trigger I'd go with keep Tinkering. That eliminates that.
smokin truker I really appreciate that ! I’m definitely checking out keep tinkering’s triggers. You’re the best bro lol.
Check out Asmund short stroke trigger for full video on the Galloway precision teigger
Swigg OfSauce The keep tinkering trigger is the best mod you can make for the PT111 g2. I couldn't believe the difference, turned a good pistol into a great pistol, I recommend the S.A.O. version.
Chris Mcleod I am definitely doing this I really appreciate the honest opinion you have in it it literally made me want to get it really bad I will be doing an update on this Taurus with more upgrades and I will post a video about it !
$300 in upgrades on a $200 gun???
cheitner the amount on total upgrades I did to this gun is close to correct. Also keep in mind you can do a few of these upgrades if the budget isn’t all there. I just did the most upgrades I could find because I had money left over for accessories rather then spending the full 500$ on a glock or something as my first purchase. So if the budget allows then do any upgrades that fits the budget ! Thanks for the topic that got me thinking !
Swigg OfSauce
Glock $500 ,1000+ for upgrade , apex, truglo, trijicon Rmr, cerakote, custom slide with cutout, the rmr plate, streamlight,
Plus the Glock Tshirt, bag and hat! And the magazine pouch and stickers, hair gel, facial & perfume, new tacticool watch, paracord bracelets 😅😅😅🇺🇸
Just busting balls!
it’s a joke 🍻
We all support the second 🍻 cheers
Yea I got both skeletonized triggers. Love them both but the back strap little more since I got big hands I like the feel of it
smokin truker I have small hands 😅 would the back strap be good for smaller hands ??
@@SwiggOfSauce th-cam.com/video/rCWLNAqzdpk/w-d-xo.html
I didnt have a issue with the Trigger what so ever but I wanted to put my twist on it. And customize it.
that moment when yt'ers are too stupid to realize that they can demonstrate a flashlight/laser without shinning it at the camera.
AEtheGOD lol sorry about that I forgot I even flashed the camera ! My bad I am an idiot at times 😅 sorry if it hurt the eyes because it messed me up lol.
racketyjack it wasn’t polite of me I should of definitely warned my viewers. But at least you enjoyed it brother hopefully the video helped you out !
Great video. I work security and I'm going to use this gun with a couple extra mags. Do you know where I can get a decent mag holster for my duty belt. I would get the ones you have, but they're for inside the waist and I need something to put on the outside of my belt.
Jordon Crews thanks for the compliment bro I try ! And I in this configuration I have not found any holster for out the waistband that would fit that laser, hey when I do find something I’ll let you know ! God bless bro !
@@SwiggOfSauce thank you so much
Jordon Crews anytime brother ! Still on the look out ! Lol
You carry for protection. Not for show and tell. Carry a weapon that WILL GO BANG EVERYTIME WITH NO MAYBE'S. Carry a Taurus revolver .38 Spl + P or a .357 magnum. Don't jack with something that may not work when you need it to save your life carry something that WORKS 1000%. Get a revolver by Taurus.
Jan Hollon I was looking into the 357 by Taurus that looks awesome I did pick up a NAA 22mag recently and it is a nice small little revolver ! I will be doing a video on that soon !
You ain't lying I got me the 38special.model 85 I love that thing I also have the pt111g2
Andres Camarena that’s a great combo right there ! One for light clothing and one for when it’s colder outside ! 38 app are great from what I’ve heard !
What is a guide rod for? I am also looking for my 1st pistol an thinking about getting this one as well. Where did you get yours? If online where did you use an how much?
brad Locsta thank you for commenting ! But I am happy to explain what the guide rod is and also happy to let you know how to purchase this weapon for a good price. Ok, so the guide rod upgrade I have linked in my description is basically helping reduce recoil so when you shoot the weapon it recoil much less ! Also i bought this gun in a gun store in Philadelphia. You can go to any store and I guarantee you that you will find a Taurus G2C for around 300$. If you chose to order online I recommend Palmetto state armory, there website has hundreds-of cheap options where you can order it to your local FFL dealer and you can wait for it to go to the store of your choice and then go and pick it up when it is shipped there, this method however do take time for it to ship. Although this way of purchasing saves you a few bucks it just takes a little longer to wait for shipping ! I hope I’ve helped you out with some of this information ! If you need any help let me know ! I love helping people out when they are getting into there first gun ! I am a new gun user myself but I am learning everyday because I love it so much ! Cheers !
You can get a G2C under $200, maybe $190. They have had a $25 rebate, so as law as $165. Try kygunco.com. transfer fee to whoever they ship it to for you to pick up and sales taxes.
If this is your first handgun, I'd suggest looking at a revolver. Maybe a .357 Magnum with a 4" barrell. You can shoot .38 Special and save money on ammo, load .357 when you want to.
Revolvers are much more reliable, less issues, excellent first handguns. Try Taurus or Ruger revolvers. Smith&Wessons are great but too expensive. Or Charter ArmsNJ or Rock Island Armory. Lots of good used revolvers to be had.
Keith Graham awesome bro thanks for sharing some insight ! Going to be browsing these websites sometime today lol
If you guys are new shooters, congratulations! Sport shooting is a lot of fun and you can watch your skill level improve dramatically, it gives you immediate feedback.
If you don't mind, let me make a few suggestions. #1 is always safety. If you don't have someone to teach you, look for a range with an instructor. A lot of videos will give you tips.
Second, I wouldn't necessarily start with a 9mm. Most shooters will wind up buying multiple firearms, and a 9mm autoloader would be a good second or third purchase.
Personally, I think a revolver is a good #1 gun and a wise purchase may last you a lifetime. I've got my first rifle from 48 years ago and my first handgun, a Smith & Wesson Model 27 .357 Magnum with a 6.5" barrel I bought when I was 14.
Everyone needs a .22Long Rifle (.22lr)! That's the caliber of bullet, not a gun. All the techniques apply to a .22 that apply to any other caliber. But a .22 is cheap to shoot! You can buy ammo for it much cheaper than anything else.
A good first autoloader could be a Ruger. I forget the model number, it kind of looks like an old German Luger in profile. You can go to their website, or any manufacturer's,to look at everything they make.
If you buy on-line there are lots of sites, peruse a few and you'll find several that are consistently well priced.
Good luck and good shooting!
Keith Graham hey thank you for the advice you are wise and wish you was my trainer to be honest. You are right I’ve already created a list, the 357 magnum, and a 22lr rifle of some sort are already on my list ! I’m also looking into a pump shotgun maybe a maverick 88, because of its price and high ratings. I’m very into guns and respect anyone that take the time to practice safety and safe shooting habits to protect the ones they love is inspiring. God bless and thank you again for the wisdom and advice I will be referring to your comment often !
That's a monstrosity😅
....nah, seriously its badass
513to205nbak lmao thank you bro it is extra but it’s my first love so you know I have to go hard on it 😂 just wait till you see the update video I just got a red dot optic on it 😂😂
