Been reading about the Taurus Millenium Pro PT-145(.45ACP)... Anybody here on the forum have this little gem, or have used one in the past? Looking for reviews and see how you like it as a CCW pistol, and how does it shoot?

 

Thanks!

I am not familiar with that pistol, but I would be leary about using a Taurus as my primary or CCW Pistol. Their QC is hit or miss( but the people who sent their lemons back to Taurus received them back in good workig order ), and their CS people suck to deal with( from experience )As a range gun sure, but I would no go Taurus if my life depended on it.

I have one in .40 and right out of the box the mag kept popping out when firing it. Called Taurus and was sent a new mag catch 3 months later. Installed it, put a mag in and it wouldn't come out. Had to send it back, came back two weeks later fixed and has been fine since.

Taurus blows.

I would have no qualms carrying on or depending my life on my Pt1911.

 

Has been super reliable in the 200 or so rounds I have put thru it AND I have heard of very very little issues with their Pt1911 series.

 

Some of the others, absolutely!

To each his own. My brother owns a PT99 and a Judge (which I fought hard for him NOT to get). The 99 works well, but it's also super broken in.

Thanks guys... Appreciate the feedback on this. Any advice on a good CCW chambered for .45?

Dude I love my pt145pro never had any problems whatso ever and it's accurate. Can only speak about my experience

As you can see in this thread, Taurus is hit or miss. They make some great pistols.... Taurus PT1911, the Beretta Clones, and the Judge.... and they also make some mediocre pistols....

Depends on what you're looking for and how much you want to spend.

 

Tactical tupperware, there's Glock, SA XD, S&W M&P, FN.

 

Single action - a myriad of 1911 platforms

 

Metal in a DA/SA look at CZ or Sig.

 

You just happened on one of the less desireable choices. There's tons of reliable .45's out there. I advise that you handle and shoot as many varieties as you can before deciding.

 

Adios,

If you want a nice CCW'able 45, I would look at the Baby Eagle/Jericho 941 Semi Compact 45's. Steel frame so a pleasure to shoot. Based on the CZ design, very accurate, polygonal rifling. Right around the $450 to $500 mark.

i have a Taurus M85 (38 special snubby) and I love it! I'm waiting on a Taurus Judge as I write this. I have no problems trusting a Taurus with my life, but I have to run a lot of rounds down range to make that assesment. YOu should too. Good luck bro, and Pizza Bob is right (again). Shoot a bunch of 45s and see what you like.

max, they no longer import the baby eagle, you would have to find one in stock or used.. great gun though..
