Catastrophic failure with a Beretta 92F Need some info. on the 92F

The F model has LONG been discontinued. Replaced by the FS. The "F" model hasn't been made since the mid 1980s. What does this honestly have to do with anything.

I already stated above that: "Guns are like cars - there will always be lemons. I can find catastrophic failure threads on every brand - Glocks, S&W's, Berettas, Rugers, etc."

I just found your thread about your new Taurus elsewhere in the forum...

In your own thread, I gathered the following info... Let's see - you own a Raven, a Hi Point and now used Taurus. You have owned that used Taurus less than a week, and have somewhere around 1 box of ammo through it. In that time, you've sought out this thread...

You've replied and insulted all of us that do not really like Taurus, and we have some reasoning and facts to stand behind. You admit to not being that knowledgeable about guns in your other thread. Some of us have been gun buying and shooting for years. Hell, I've been in non stop gun buying mode since 1993. Yet, you - the guy with the Raven, the Hi Point, and the 1 week old Taurus, comes to tell us all how full of it we are on a thread you didn't even start...

Now, a nice person would have said - "I just bought a Taurus, and so far, it works great. I hope to prove you guys wrong about the quality - it was all I could afford." But you didn't do that. In fact, you are nasty to no one in particular on your own thread you started yourself... Seems like you just want to argue, any place and anywhere. You have gone digging on this site - to argue with people who do not have a good opinion of taurus - when you have only owned a used one for less than a week....

And, you now call me a gun snob? Yes, I am probably a gun snob to someone who has a Raven, Taurus and hi point... And, I will probably always be one to that person.

You like your Taurus. Great. I am happy for you. But, (on your own thread) you even state that you don't know if you paid too much for it...

Don't have much money? Fine, I get it... You probably could have saved and bought a used Glock, S&W, used Beretta, or used anything that is of a higher tier than Taurus. But, you didn't. And, you have what you have. Make the best of it. I hope your gun continues to work.

But now you are insulting all of us who do not agree with you - that Taurus is the most fantastic thing around. I would invite any future members who read this thread to go follow up on your own thread you started.

Taurus owners want to dispute my suggestion that they look elsewhere - go ahead. But a guy who has owned a used Taurus for less than a week (and who is rather nasty about the whole thing) really has nothing much to contribute here....
