BigSkiff, Just wanted to thank you for the read on your Taurus tour. 1st thing did they let you test fire anything? It sounds like the new CEO is listening. You can definitly tell if a worker is uncomforable around the CEO or not. Cant wait to hear more.

Really great read and writeup. Glad to hear you were favorably impressed and had a great trip. Surely you're not out of pics yet?

BigSkiff has more to come. Like he said, it's a work in progress. I'm anxious to see more myself!

We all are waiting for the installments, that Skiff has for us. Just like Christmas morning???

 

[bmbroker]

Fascinating! I'm also getting educated. Hats off to ya for bringing this to us.

I think this report kinda shatters the old mind illusion that Taurus employees are sitting around making guns on a dirt floor with hacksaws and hammers. This looks like a top notch, controlled environment workplace that is set up to turn out some really nice guns.

I'm hoping that the new CEO takes seriously the need for improved quality control, customer service, and customer relations. I think this is what could make them turn the corner.

I love my Taurus firearms and can't wait for more.

Anyone ask them about email?

I didn't know they were making anything stateside. All the Taurus guns I see still have Brazil on the side. Is there a list of what they make here?

 

[btleslie]

I'm jealous. :hail:

Looking forward to the complete report. Did a compact 1911 come up in the conversation?

 

[pamswilley]

Impressed! Can I volunteer to tour the Brazil plant?

 

[BigSkiff]

Hey ya'll, I didn't do this all on my own Airwrench worked just as hard on this as I did! We both appreciates the comments!

Very impressive. I don't think I've ever seen a shop so clean (especially a machine shop!). Nice to see how things work down there. Wish I had their ammo fund

The BATFE has a minimum size requirement for imported firearms. This is the reason Taurus is manufacturing the small pistols stateside.

I too wanted to thank you BigSkiff! Great read. Lucky to have a knowledgeable resource like you willing to share with us!

Went over to THR - Powered by vBulletin and posted a link back to the thread about the Tour.

A mod over there got into the anti-Taurus thread and shut the idiots down by closing the thread. There is a pro-Taurus thread over there that just got started.
What's right with a Taurus? - THR
