  1. The 700's
    I have had some problems with FTE, Stovepipe. I noticed that my barrel moves away from the chamber slightly, the barrel does not stay in one position. Is this normal? On my other pistols, there may be a slight bit of movement, but not much at all. Most move about the width of a piece of paper...
  2. The 700's
    So after fooling around with a 38 spl. revolver and a 380 auto, I decided that my 709 is the best combo for me in regards to size, weight, capacity and punch for my EDC piece. So I have the all black model and I noticed the front of the gun is sharp and so are the areas near the ejection...
  3. The 700's
    I know Glocks get modded all the time but never much about any other pistol, at least not to the extent of a Glock. Anyway has anyone done anything to their 709's? I read where someone put a Tru Glo tritium sight on theirs but I don't see how it's done...does not look like much is holding the...
  4. 24/7 Series
    For the purpose of choosing a conceal carry pistol I bought a PT24/7 G2C and a 709 and took both to the range today and shot a hundred rounds through each to see which i like. I found the obvious difference. The 24/7 G2C holds more rounds, is fat and recoil less than the 709. The 709 on the...
  5. Taurus Product Problems
    I have been looking for a PT709 slim mag. On EBAY they are now over a $100. I contacted Taurus and put I'm a backorder to be told they have no idea when mags will be available. The gent I spoke with said they have had a lot of calls on this. I contacted an aftermarket company that is well known...

  6. The 700's
    Does anyone know what the problem is with getting magazines for the 709 or 740 Slim? I called Taurus last October and placed an order for 2 spare 740 mags. They said it would take 6-8 weeks. It has been six months. I was on Taurus' Facebook page, and they are still today telling people 6-8...
  7. The 700's
    I was cruising around the internet earlier and somehow managed to make a wrong turn. I wound up on LaserLyte's website and decided I may as well look around while I was there. Lo and behold they have a trigger guard mounted laser coming out that will fit both the TCP and the slim series by...
  8. The 700's
    I just got a 9mm 709 Slim :). I really like it. I really want to find either an aftermarket magazine that holds more rounds & fits this 709 slim (preferably flush or an extension magazine) or any magazines from other Taurus guns that wills fit the 709 slim that hold more rounds. Please let me...
  9. The 700's
    Just got back from my first trip to the range with my new Blue Taurus 709. I was very happy that i had no problem other than a few failure to feed issues. First I put 50 rounds of Federal American Eagle through it. There were no problems at all and the gun is very accurate. I had no problems...
  10. Concealed & Open Carry
    Hi guys! I just found this blog and man am I excited! I recently purchased the Taurus pt709 slim (not the G2.) So far, the only accessory i have purchased is clip extension from Pearce Grips. I was curious if anyone has any advice on additions to my slim... 1) Do they make any...
  11. Taurus Product Problems
    I Purchased a 709 Slim with the expectation that I could reverse the mag release for left hand use as the Taurus website states. Upon looking at the owners manual it also states that the mag release is reversable, but with no instruction on how it is done. However, when contacting Taurus to find...
  12. The 700's
    Just got back from the Academy in Lewisville, TX. Got the very last PT709 (black). Cardboard box, 1 mag, $299.00. Place was a madhouse - had several boxes of Monarch steel hardball ammo in 9mm, but that was it. Picked up 200 rounds for the range trip Monday. :cool:

  14. The 700's
    Hi everyone, I picked up a used 709SS off of gunbroker for a potential carry weapon. $250 shipped, no FFL fee ( I know a guy). So i'm pretty happy about that. 2010 model. Checked it out and it looks pretty good. Tiny holster wear mark, but the feed ramp looks well polished. Dissasembled and...
  15. New Member Introductions & Site Guidelines & Rules
    I've had a .38 revolver for years but I'm now in the market for a nice but inexpensive consealed carry weapon. Bass Pro Shop has a new Taurus 709 on sale right now for $349. I went in last night and held it, small but nice. I immagine it feels even better when loaded (more balanced). I have...
  16. Concealed & Open Carry
    I thought that I'd write up a review on my SHTF Gear Holster now that I've worn it for about six months. Initially I was very impressed with the look of this holster; it looks similar to other IWB holsters on the market but much more professional and higher quality with its kevlar stitching and...
  17. The 700's
    Long time lurker, first time poster here. I fell in love with my 709 from the first time picking it up a year ago, but unfortunately it hasn't been one of the good ones. In fact it's heading back to Florida for its second vacation next week. But I'm not here to complain or vent, but curious...
