No titanium The FS is a oxide finished carbon steel, The SS of course is stainless steel and BSS is black finish on stainless steel. along with some lower color options. No titanium. but a great little 380 none the less.

The FS sells in a good lgs for around $185 the SS 4260 the BSS $275

You can find out more about them at Taurus pistol section.

Only titanium I know of is double taps 2 shooter and some s&w custom revolvers. And like many small guns can be picky about ammo and even the shooters skills . Feed it well and run it a bit wet when new they work well.

Some may also have no idea when looking at them when it was made . The early models did have problems but were fixed IF the owner tried to contact taurus about the issue it would have cost nothing but a week or two. . The latest serial number will have a D in it . But the C and D tend to be very good .

We have 2 of them in the family that I broke in . Both have over 600 rounds with zero issues. Both are C series.
