Took my 2 day old PT 24/7 PRO DS .45acp to the range today and documented everything...3 different kinds of JHP ammo had endless trouble. FMJs fed much better but even they had a few FTFs out of the total 117 rounds I fired. So I do have this magazine problem but I've noticed that the last 4-5 rounds in the mag feed ok. So spring tension and probably that crappy follower is what's causing the play on those top rounds. It also doesn't help to have that lame feed ramp angle.

@flamengishta yep. Bad magazines. Call Taurus and they will have you send them in for replacement. No big deal but takes a few weeks.

can you give me advice what handgun is the best for us law enforcer especially here in tropical countries..thanks and more power...

[merddyn2002]

just my opinion, I would either carry the Taurus OSS .45, the Springfield XDm if you can find it in .45.

[SirSmok3Alot225]

i cant find the newer ones (with thr orange followers) anywhere! I even bought extras from Taurus and they were the same ol' factory mags

[AmericanMade72]

@SirSmok3Alot225 Cool, thanks fer answering. I called them today, they gave me the info of where to send it, I sent it today. Let's see now, should be easy to track because today is the first. It's gonna take a week to get there, then maybe 3 weeks more to get it back I fear. Where do you buy GOOD mags? I hate to wait a month, I only had the one mag!

[SirSmok3Alot225]

@AmericanMade72 just the Taurus Customer Service number in Miami 305-624-1115. Tell em your mags wont cleanly eject, and won't 'snap in' easily. They'll take yours apart and rebuild them and if that doesnt fix the problem they'll send you a new factory replacement. One of mine was refurbished and works flawlessly and the other had to be scrapped so they replaced in entirely. Out of the 6 mags I own now only 2 were fine out the box! The rest had to be sent away :-O ..at least they're very fast!

[AmericanMade72]

Dude, thanks for this vid. I figured out everything you said in this video on my own, but was I was not sure of was that if this was a major problem with all the 24-7 guns. As long its just the mags, and they take care of it, I'm cool. I bought one used today for $255! I figured a little fidgeting would uncover a hidden gem.

@SirSmok3Alot225 What number did you call?

[SirSmok3Alot225]

@SirSmok3Alot225 answering my own question.....YES they do..no hassle, and they're quick! Gotta love Taurus

has anyone ever told you that the manufacturing problem here is your face. anyhow i diagnosed this by looking at you. the angle you were born at has created you as an obtuse invertebrate from the misfeed that happen when you were exiting the birth canal. the only thing more obtuse than your body is your mind. Your head looks like a watermelon i want to see explode in slow motion. sorry i got side tracked, there is no cure for you. where do i send for a new one
