    The issue is almost always lip wristing. They need a firm grip to properly cycle.

      First order of business is to thoroughly clean the weapon.Taurus ships their guns via ocean containership,and thus they pack their guns rather liberally with oil.What then happens next is the owner buys the gun,takes it directly to the range,and wonders why his piece won't function properly.

      After that,the next suspect is a worn or defective magazine.

      The 1911 may have been in wars for 100 years, but Masetro Bartolomeo Beretta was arming the world 400 years before John Browning was ever a wet dream.

            The magazine ejection issue. That is a real one.

              From my experinces with the one I own has seen between 500rds to 700rds through the pipe. I got it used so the total round count is unknown. No problems at all with all kinds of ammo from cheap steel cass rounds to premium HP defense rounds. Great little pistol for the money. Very reliable, light in weight and concealable that holds 10+1rds of 45acp.

                I bet you end up liking it. I picked up a PT-745 last fall and have been pleasantly surprised with how good it is.

                With factory ammo mine runs 100%. I had read about burrs on the magazines so I cleaned them up before ever going the range...

                  I took it to the range yesterday and it ran flawless but since my das who never goes shooting would get a failure to feed on the last round some times but i thimk it was his grip becuase i would not have the same issue. Over all i like it.
