I like your review, good stuff. I hate to be so 'anal' but the 'clip' as you call it is a misnomer made famous by bad Hollywood movies. That is a magazine - not a clip. A clip does not have springs and is what you'd find in say, an M1 Garand. Then you have what is called a 'charger' or stripper clip which is found in say an SK. Good video, I have a SS PT111 Compact Pro.
I have this exact model PT-140 and mine has been nothing but great. I only paid $296 total because it was used and the gun has been fantastic and is seriously my favorite handgun right now and definitely the best deal I've ever gotten on a gun.lol I plan on using it as my CC piece.
Great vid, I just purchased a Glock 27 and it is too sweet, however I have been in the market for a second 40 cal. sub-compact. This gun seems appealing as an EDC/CCW what's you thoughts in comparison?
I have just purchased this weapon in April 2011 and the saftey flaw associated with the saftey/trigger pull, HAS BEEN FIXED!!!! I can pull the trigger all the way back (before point of fire), engage the safety and the firearm WILL NOT FIRE!!! Problem solved!
The trigger travel before she goes "boom" is waaaaay to far. Jimmeny Cricket that's a long trigger pull. I could wash the car and drink 5 beers before someone trying to kill me could get a round off. Ate the 1911's the only handguns you can buy these days without a 18 mile trigger travel? I think we have a conspiracy at work here.
i also own the same gun.i like it but had issues with the firing pin when it was brand new it was broken already!! sent it back to taurus and they fixed free of charge(minus the $58 for overnight shiping there that is mandatory but....)now im seeming to have trouble with the front sight set screw loosing up after about 150-200 rds but overall i think it is a very nice gun. who knows i might have got the "lemon". if u have any tips for me id be glad to hear them.thanks
Besides having to pay for shipping, the lifetime repair policy is a great perk to the Taurus firearms. It's good to know they will fix any defects for Only the cost of postage.
I haven't experienced any problems with the sights. The pistol should come with a set of wrenches for servicing your gun. Every time after going to the range, clean the gun free of gun powder, apply oil, and tighten the sights down tight with the supplied wrench.
@bigbanks2305 Hey that was 2 months ago but before you pay the shipping try some loctite on the screw. I havent had the problem but it has worked on other thing on other guns for me
I've shot 400 rounds so far with my Taurus PT 140 usually Remington 180 grains, one or two boxes of Tul ammo. The gun ate everything with no jams, no problems whatsoever. I'm really happy with the gun, it's my shooting that I'm trying to improve most.
I've realized that I shoot more accurately with one hand. Practice makes perfect.
I actually won this gun last night at a NWTF Banquet.
I really like it. I haven't gotten to shoot it yet but I love the size of it. It fits in my hand perfectly.
I like your review. :)

Good review. Liked the break down and reassembly and showing how it shoots over time.
