 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in sticking with the budget series and today we're looking at a Taurus Spectrum This is a weird-looking one. It has a gray frame with what they call a mint Rubber over mold they call it a soft touch because everywhere you grip the gun you touch that that rubber and actually Now that I've had it a few years. I actually like it This was released in 2018. It has a 2.8 inch barrel comes with a 7 and a 6 round mag This is a 7 round mag 380 ACP It used to be right around 300 dollars MSRP now It's 224 so we're actually seeing the price decrease unlike many of the other trends out there But it's made to be a pocket carry gun. It does have integrated sights there very small and And a snag-free gun all around so I'm pretty sure they wanted to Market this as a pocket carry gun right here is also that rubber Overmold is what I call it soft touch whatever you want to say I actually did not care for that when I first got it because I figured well, what if it wears out? Well, so far it hasn't now I will mention the double action trigger with restrike capability Is heavy closer to eight pounds But it does it does fire now it has been ammo sensitive since I've had it And it's been forever since I've had this out So I am going to take a few shots today when it was first released it was Very popular. It's only 14 ounces loaded with seven rounds. So that is pretty light So definitely a pocket carry choice. Let's go ahead and take a few shots I like it that they actually dropped the MSRP Picking up that front It's kind of hard to do picking up that front sight because it is so small check that out It is so small a little bit of nail polish would be nice I probably should have done that anyways But I want to quickly show you the disassemble It's pretty interesting. It has that lever right there vertical Line and all you do is put around it and move it Okay counterclockwise and off comes the slide from the frame. This is very light I'll put this nine millimeter round back But internally you'll see an uncaptured recoil spring steel guide rod and a 2.8 inch barrel I will tell you the current cost of 380 acp ammo is so expensive I called the local dealer before I came out here. I'm running a little low on 380 And it was 40 bucks a box of 50 and they are hard to find So as ammo is somewhat freeing up, especially in the handgun world The 380 really has not The trigger Has a full reset each and every pull. So that is worth Mentioning I'm not a huge fan of 380 But I don't mind it either. You know, you can pack seven rounds in a little 14 ounce pistol like this and throw it in the pocket Better than your 45 at home. So the torus spectrum Many people love it Many people don't But I think it's all right. It serves a purpose, you know for an msrp of 224 I think that's a great deal For a handgun that fires and fires pretty straight too. I have to mention for a 2.8 inch barrel I'm certainly not complaining and I think this is A pretty cool handgun all things considered If you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate the thumbs up button.
