Customer service turnaround time.

[Harrychl]

Welcome from Fort Worth, Texas where the West Begins..

You might want to check out Ranch Dogs thread, he had some 145 issues and dealt with customer service. Seemed like a very positive experience!

Got to be a world record. Got the 145 back on Friday...9 days door to door.

Turns out the magazine catch was busted. They replaced it and it is definitely a different shape. Took her to the range yesterday. 150 rds of white box and 20 rounds of RangerT, all through 4 different mags with no issues.

I'm a happy man.

Good to hear another positive experience with Taurus CS. Taurus will take good care of our Taurus pistols when problems arise.

Ugg...that's not what I wanted to hear. I think it's a magazine catch problem, so it should be an easy fix.

Where in E. TX. I spent a few years in Houston. We're in NE now.

I had the same problem and had mine back in 10 days

Well, it looks like I might have to send the 145 back to Miami. Went to the range yesterday and after about 50 rds had a FTF. Tap, rack, bang, except there was no bang..again. It looks like I have an issue with the firing pin mechanism now. After unloading, the it felt light when dry firing. Took it home and couldn't figure out how to take the firing pin mechanism out. I bathed it in hoppes and used a very small brush to clean it as best as I could, then let it drain and dry. The firing pin drop feels harder now, but I'm not optimistic. Going to swing by the range after work. Right now, I'm not very happy with this gun.

Does anybody know how to take the firing pin assembly out of this gun (Gen 3 145 pro). Not much on the interwebs about the gen 3. I would like to at least see if it's damaged before I send it back. There is a chance that the firing pin channel is just gunked up.

Thanks in advance.

I carry a "mouse gun" (Ruger LCP) all the time during my winter visit to the southwest. Love it. I find the only problem is while
driving. You won't be able to get it out quickly, so I leave it out but concealed under something. It's a point and shoot with a laser.

Removing the striker assembly is very simple and easy. It took me less than 5 mins the 1st time.

You can also find some video on removing the striker pin on YouTube.
