    New guy from Orlando, FL with a broken PT140...

    Hey everybody,
    I am new to the site. I am an almost 34 year old male from Orlando, FL and I have a PT140 as my carry gun. I recently had an issue with my 40 at the range and when I thought I fixed the problem, I found that something else was wrong. Taurus is sending me the part I need although I don't know that I will be able to replace it. This is very upsetting as I have only had my gun for about 9 days. I think this site is the only thing good to come out of the whole experience so far. I have been looking on the threads to try and find the answer to my problem, but I haven't had much luck yet. If anyone wants to help the new guy fix his gun, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome from Kansas
    Thank you, to all who serve; past, present and future. It is people, like you, who are willing to serve that have made this a great nation. I pray for your safety, your family, and the leaders that make decisions that affect you. I will always pray for and respect the office of the President of the United States, I don't have to like the person elected. Until he comes, or calls me home, here by the power of Christ I'll stand.

    Welcome from East Texas to the best gun forum on the internet.

    There's a thread in the Milpro section on a detail strip of those guns. I think it's a sticky.
    Always remember to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle your targets
    Reduce them to shreds
    Reuse shoot them more than once
    Recycle whatever is left over

    Welcome to the Forum from North Texas! You said you had a problem but didn't say what your problem was. And why didn't you send it back to Taurus in the first place? The PT140 has a Lifetime Warranty, don't ya know.

    Welcome from Northern Illinois!

    What broke, how did it manifest itself and what part are they sending. You're so close the turn time on MIA doing a repair could probably be measured in hours (they have gotten MUCH better from times past).

Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the new wonderful good society which shall now be Rome's, interpreted to mean more money, more ease, more security, and more living fatly at the expense of the industrious." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero
