I had to send my 650 CIA SS back. The gun was brand new with less than 100 rounds of 38 special Winchester White box run through it at the range. Firing pin assembly needed to be replaced. Taurus sent replacement parts twice but they sent the wrong parts both times due to a glitch in their computer. Last customer service person I spoke with was going to get the correct parts and call me back. Never got a call. Sent the gun back to Taurus at my expense. They had it for eight weeks. When I got it back, they had replaced the firing pin, spring, bushing, and retaining pin. The firing pin would stick and not retract on its own. I guess the gunsmith didn't check his work before they sent it back to me. I fixed the sticking problem myself and then traded it in on a Smith & Wesson 340SS that so far has been absolutely reliable. Would the Taurus have been ok, and not had any more problems, had I kept it? Well maybe, but "maybe" isn't good enough for a carry gun. Lost around a hundred bucks on the trade plus the thirty six bucks it had cost me to ship it back to Taurus. Not bashing Taurus, just stating facts.
