The memory pads give you a good place to rest your fingers and thumb and also provide a good physical cue that you’re holding the gun in the right position. The gun is generally comfortable to hold in the hand and the aggressive grip texturing isn’t overbearing. The ergonomics of the G3c remain pretty much unchanged from the G2c. I have always been taught to rack a new round into the chamber if you get a “click” when you’re expecting a “bang.” Ergonomics Personally, I don’t find this feature to be necessary or even very attractive. Because of this, it turns the pistol into a single-action striker-fired gun but with a restrike capability if you happen to have a light primer strike. The trigger is a Double Action/Single Action trigger by nature but it does not have a decocking mechanism. Technically, the G3c is the exact same as all previous versions up to the PT111G2. The last thing I’ll say about the trigger is its odd mechanism. Not a deal-breaker though, especially for the price. While I generally like the feel of this trigger, I will note that the trigger tends to break much further back than I’d expect or prefer. The G3c not only has the safety sit flat with the trigger but it also is flat-faced when depressed offering up a much nicer feel without too much overtravel. One of the worst aspects of previous versions was the trigger blade safety poking your finger when pulling the trigger as it did not sit flush with the trigger. Previous versions of this double-stack 9mm pistols had a passable trigger at best in my opinion. Magazines Included: 3x10rounds or 3x12roundsĪdditional Feature: Picatinny Rail (Mil-STD 1913) Safety: Manual, trigger safety, striker block Operational Controls Finish: Black Teflon coatingįiring System: Single action with restrike capability As implied by the name the G3c is the compact version of the full-sized Taurus G3 pistol and the upgrades done to the G3 pistol are passed down to the G3c. While the G2c is the successor of the G2C, it is not without some much-needed upgrades. TFB REVIEW: The Brand New Taurus G3C Compact 9mm Pistol
