the general wisdom here is that taurus guns are hit or miss. i purchased a pt111 9mm a few years back and i have to say its a fun pistol to shoot. easily concealable if i like although for that im more a revolver guy. never a jam with round fmh although it does not like hydra-shock and/or hollow points because the flat nose does not guide the bullet up the feed ramp into the chamber, then again i did not try all brands of jhp. for what it costs i think its about what a 9mm should be, rather small, holds 12+1, shoots well with proper ammo but maybe i just got lucky when i bought mine. good advice would be to thoroughly check the one you intend to purchase or maybe look elsewhere if you intend to use hp rounds like you should with 9mm. trying to find hp ammo thatll cycle well in a finicky gun can be time comsuming and expensive and you may very well spend more than the difference if you had bought a glock 9 or a beretta or so forth for the 400+ range
