 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in after range down today. We're looking at the new Taurus TX-22 competition Very unique. See it is optic ready. Let's take a few shots in we'll talk more about it. Nice. I Reviewed the initial Taurus TX-22. I really liked it and It had great ergos. This has great ergos. It ran so many types of ammo and This lower here the frame is essentially the same. It's got a single action four pound trigger that has a Pretty short reset right the initial pull and then you're looking at a reset Right there. It is striker fired 16 round magazines and a five inch barrel optic ready on the hood of The barrel which is really nice that it has two mounting plates in which you could Mount nine different optics the most popular ones now what I have here is a vortex venom, but check out that slide cut see that the barrel is exposed and Not only is that burrata like but also with the disassemble You pull the barrel out of the slide that way that way you can get the barrel out. No, it is a threaded barrel already mentioned five inches aluminum slide, which is Very interesting same as the other, but it does keep the weight down. Let's try it again Try my luck at some one-hand shooting here that Keeping the gun out there for a little while And the dot shakes around and then the longer you keep it out there the more tired you get with it And then the dot really shakes around I had one shot left. You'd think I could have just taken that shot but what I like about this gun is That it is very accurate much like the original. It's got a five inch barrel and the availability to put nine different optics on there is Pretty interesting. It does have an ambidextrous Thumb safety there. All right, which is good with a single action gun, you know a four pound trigger That's good. And then that frame grip texturing is really nice. You get a good feel for it Not much negative to say about the Taurus TX-22 Competition it's got a nice wide trigger guard there a two-slot pick rail and it is It's pretty light and it disassembles Pretty easily pull a slide back a little bit these takedown levers just like that and then Up I forgot pull the trigger first Then do that and it just pulls off like that very simple Operation very simple Disassemble and then to put it back together you get it in that position and pull it back and you're good to go So there it is. Let me go ahead and load it up and we'll take a few more shots All right TX-22 competition. Let's go ahead and shoot from 25 yards here Dead trigger. Oh It didn't load and that's it. It's a sharp little plinkster and It I don't know if I mentioned this but it's striker fired. So not only does it carry 16 rounds and Have a single action trigger that measures four pounds But also is striker fired which is very unique with 22 long rifle pistols So there it is Taurus TX-22. They did a a genius job Figuring out how to mount nine optics on a barrel hood something that I haven't seen before But they created a very cool looking and very nice shooting handgun and The MSRP on this is 484. We'll see what the gun stores are selling it for I would guess initially You know you look at gun broker and some of those other sites I would guess initially it's gonna be over 500 but give it some time and We'll see I would I would also guess once things sell down probably mid to lower 400s will get you the TX-22 competition and actually I think you'll like it It's pretty cool gun.
