    This confused me, why would you buy a pistol you believe is so poorly constructed that it wouldn't stay on paper out of the box?


    Thats my same question. With other 1911's out there in there in the same basic price range, why not get one that has more proven reliability?

    Oh damn did my watching skills suck. I just saw the hammer at a quick glance and thought 1911

    1911Dave doesn't know what a 1911 looks like.....

    I bought the PT140 instead of the PT111 because it was the 40 cal version, and a new release from Taurus.
    I just like 40 cals, I also have a Beretta PX4 storm in 40 cal.

    There were no reviews or even videos of the PT140 to be found anywhere

    The other video was removed somehow when I setup my new youtube channel, but I have a copy of it.

    That's fine, my point is, if you expected the gun to be wildly inaccurate, why would you buy it? I wouldn't buy a car I expected to throw a rod.

    The PT111 was not that far off, and correctable with it's adjustable sites

    Now my pt140 was dead on, and needed no sight adjustment. I just wanted to make sure it was not like some of the PT111's, Plus Taurus has a life time warranty on any of it's firearms

    I bought the Taurus PT140 for use by my main enforcer who takes care of all my slack. Enough Said :-)

    Because that's what he wanted. Why does it matter?
