    Never Leave Home Without It!

    I have been wanting a cool little pocket for years now, but kept putting it off till I got my CHL. I was looking at Derringers, Saturday Night Specials like Cobra .22s, everything you can think of. I went to Cabelas a couple of months ago and the sales man actually told me NOT to buy the TCP because according to him..."Its to small for you to shoot safely..." Well a few weeks ago I finally sucked it up and bought one and I am extremely glad I did. Talk about ultimate conceal ability...and this packs a little more punch than a .22 LR Mouse-gun. What impresses me the most about TCP is the outstanding quality. I have owned many Taurus products of the years..but this TCP stands out for its build quality. I went to the range and was very impressed with the accuracy...and zero malfunctions even during the 200 round break-in period. Its so easy to carry this, you could carry this in your under-wear if you wanted to and nobody could see it. As a newbie in the CHL world, it was very important to me to make sure the weapon I chose to carry would be concealed 100%. The TCP gives me peace of mind when it comes to conceal ability.
    I installed this nifty Peirce grip extension, and a Hogue grip is on the way...who knows maybe even a laser in the near future? This is a close range weapon and with 800 FPS the 380 acp will get the job done with the right shot placement. I bring it everywhere with me unless the sign says otherwise, gas-stations, grocery store, to check the mail, and even the movie theater. The way I look at it, its not only for my protection but the protection of the other citizens around me.

    LongTermGuy, ozzy and Qwiks draw like this.
    “I think the Taurus 24/7, in any version, is a gun you can stake your life on. I’m staking mine.
    And I think the Taurus 24/7 OSS is about to give the competition an interesting challenge.”

    I have the same philosophy, but I carry the PT-709 slim and the SA XDS. GLAD you are happy with your choice of gun, when you like it, you carry it, and that's what's the most important, caliber choice is always optional, carrying is not, it's a must.

    Congratulations on your CHL and your choice of a carry piece at least it is one you will carry all the time!

    Refer the "salesman" to that!! The "old dude" was using a Taurus 738.
