Pretty windy out this evening, glad I shot a box of ammo through it at lunch.

Really impressed with the trigger. I don't do any aftermarket triggers on my pistols and have Ruger, Smith and Wesson, Glock, Sig, so that's what I've got to compare it too.

Functioned 100%, appreciated the fact that it grouped my brass nicely. I didn't clean or lube the pistol. Just shot as is out of the box with exception of adding the optic.

It disassembles and reassembles easy, mags drop freely, empty or full. Hopefully the wind dies down for the weekend, I want to get some rounds through it.

Just wonderin g if anyone out there has found a Red Dot Sight that will Co-witness with the G3C TORO??

Attached is a drawing of the footprint of the holosun K optics. This should allow you to modify the plate 4 front. I did the modifications for mounting my 507K, but found the taurus plate with only one fwd lug and two 8-32 screws did not hold my optic even at 20 in/lbs torque.

Should be 6-32 screws.

Picked up my first Taurus pistol this morning. Wanted to try something with an optic and the new sccy isn't available anywhere I have access too, nor is the Max-9, so I decided on the G3C.

For an optic, I went with the holosun hs507k-x2.

Taurus includes 4 adapter plates, and 3 different types of screws(1of each, I guess as an example??)

The optic came with two pair of screws, neither fit the G3C. I took the one example included with the G3C to the hardware store and bought a pair of stainless screws.

The G3C manual says plate #2 fits the hs507k. I've got to assume they are referring to the original, and not the x2 model, because of the x2 wasn't close to their plate. I went with plate 4, removed rear lug on plate and made the one front lug shorter since the holosun has a shallow hole.

Fit and finish ony G3C is excellent IMHO. If it's not too windy this evening, I'll see about sighting it in and testing it out.

The screw threads are 6*32, I believe a half inch long, but I didn't pay attention to length other than to match it up with the length of the screw on the left in the manual. I held my soldering iron to the head of the original screws for minute and they came right out.

Hey man I want to install the HS407K x2 which is the basically the same as the 507 you installed... I was wondering how ward was it to modify plate 4 to fit? And what tools you used for it. I just ordered a dremel for something else and I'm wondering if that'll do the trick. Thanks in advance.

You have to use a modified plate 4. Front lug is shortened, rear lug needs to be removed. Only the 1 lug and the screws hold it on. Check to make sure the plate snaps into place otherwise the plate moves on the slide. Mine would not hold aim, so I pulled it off and put in on my CZ P10c OR.

I contacted Taurus regarding support for the G3/G3c TORO plates to mount RMSc and RMRcc smaller footprint optics. Their response was no plates planned at this time, now only the GX4. Have fun!

Sorry, haven't yet figured how to delete this reply, so I edited it.

Thanks for the reply.. Damn I was falling in love with that Holoson. I'll start looking elsewhere. I might have to get the Romeo zero I guess not the look I wanted but I guess I'll save money

If you are looking at the Romeo 0, you might want to look at the Swampfox Sentinel as both have the same footprint. Optics-info (see link) has some good red dot sight mount information that may give you some insight regarding optics having the same footprint. optics footprint info

Thanks that Optics-Info site is a great resource!!

Hi everyone! So I got a Taurus G3 Toro & RITON OPTICS 3 TACTIX MPRD 2 3.0 MOA RED DOT which is Shield RMSc Type Footprint. I used plate #4 with the type "C" screw that came with the G3 Toro. Everything fit perfectly. Just wanted to inform if anyone gets the Shield RMSc Type Footprint optic it should fit no problem.

Lookin good. Just picked up a g3c toro but with no optics plates. Anyone know where I can get just a plate 1 to run a vortex venom?
