How to make threads like this as useful as possible: Just add your own opinion, and your own experience, and let the reader make his/her own choice.

Trying to tell someone else what's best for him, just because you happen to like it, is arrogant, fatuous, and foolish.

I carry a 605 all the time. Solid revolver. Love it.

What do you think of the Taurus PT-1911. Last Friday, I bought one as my first gun.

How should I take care of it, so that it will last forever! What advice can you give me.

My gun dealer said it was a good gun and that I will never have any problems with it.

This Saturday will be the first time I've fired any gun.

Taurus, S&W, Ruger, Glock etc etc........Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota, etc. etc...........Harley Davidson, Suzuki, Honda, Victory etc. etc...........It''s your choice. If it functions, you like it, then there it is....YOUR choice

Good choice for a pistol. As you are a novice I would hope this Saturday shooting would be with a trained instructor so that your learned firearms habits are good from the start.

Have fun shooting.

Saturday, I'll be taking the NRA First Steps Pistol Orientation course.

Good job. That should get you off on the right foot in your shooting interests.

Althouth Taurus is a brazilian company people here don't like to use. Normally we prefer Glock or Imbel. Particulary I have a Taurus Pistol model 639 .380. Very good gun for defense, but I not reccomend If you use for the sport. The quality is not so good.

In my opinion The Taurus don't invest so much here because the government put a lot barrier for people buy and have a gun here.

Love my little 85Ch revolver for a pocket gun. Also have a PT-945 which is very fun to shoot and 100% reliable.
