I bought a Taurus .38 spl 4" barrel back in the late 70's. It was rough but shot good, I think I paid $75. for it FTF. I also had a Mod 85CH. Traded it. It also was a good pistol. I've had one of the 9mm's. Not a big fan of 9mm. Sold it. I've looked at several of the newer models at some gunshops and have not been impressed with the triggers. Seem a bit rough. I recently purchased an older 5 shot, 3" barrel, fixed sight, round butt, 44 spl. (Don't know the model number) It is the best Taurus I've owned. Action is smooth as silk and hits well with 44 spl SilverTips. (middle top row)
I'd say that the comment about "Hit or Miss" is accurate.
