OfflineI know there's still a large anti-Taurus following out there so you guys can pass right on by this one. Here's one of the first ones off the line for this year's intro. â the mod. 992 .22lr / .22mag DA convertible. The cylinders swap out with a push of the button â a real slick set-up. As soon as I find a way to ditch the ugly rubber grips and get a set of targets it will be a decent trail gun.Â

Harly, I've never been a fan of Taurus based on all the negative information about them on the internet with that being said this model makes me want to give them a try. Â
One of my pet peeves about them (and many other manufactures today) is the use of extra large lettering all over the gun. Â Wonder how easy it would be to remove on a stainless gun?
Neat gun, let us know how it shoots and holds up.

I don't disagree with you one bit on the graphics. They could have left off the TRACKER lettering and put on a set of decent looking grips and the gun would be a whole lot more tolerable. It's got some potential though (it's the only DA convertible on the market). Good idea about buffing out a SS one â the laser etching isn't very deep but it might be a little tricky to match the finish. I'll check it out when the stainless guns start shipping.

OfflineTaurus's biggest problem is a pretty poor Customer Service reputation (deserved or not, they're out there as pretty spotty). I've had 3 Taurus guns, two PT1911's (good guns) and a used .22 revolver that was pretty marginal, and was part of a trade-in on my 722. Actually, the poor little Taurus didn't stand a chance when the 722 came up on the radar.
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
