I just stopped by my local Gander Mountain and checked out a new Taurus 738 TCP they had on sale for $199. The trigger was decent (long but smooth) and the fit and finish looked very nice (actually better than my KT PF9). Since I don't own a micro .380, the TCP would fill a niche in my collection quite nicely.

I have never owned a Taurus product before so all I really know about them is what I read. As many of you know there seem to be lots of people who love them and an equal number that are devout Taurus haters. I had a bad experience with the aforementioned KT PF9 so I'm a little gun shy of mini polymer handguns...so any input from owners of TCP's would be greatly appreciated.
