Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the new Taurus GX2 Toro?

The Taurus GX2 Toro is an optics-ready version of the GX2 pistol, featuring a slide directly milled for Shield RMSc footprint optics. It maintains the original GX2's affordability, with an MSRP of $299, making it a cost-effective option for concealed carry.

What makes the Taurus RPC PDW unique in its segment?

The Taurus RPC PDW stands out with its roller-delayed blowback action, which significantly reduces felt recoil compared to standard blowback systems. It also features a non-reciprocating ambidextrous charging handle and a 32-round magazine, positioning it as a capable PDW.

What is the intended use for the Taurus 22 TUC?

The Taurus 22 TUC is designed as a compact, lightweight, and affordable .22 LR pistol for deep concealment, often referred to as an 'underpants gun' or 'Rule One' gun. The threaded barrel model is ideal for suppressed use in pest control, varmint hunting, or quiet plinking.

How does the Taurus RPC PDW handle recoil?

The RPC PDW utilizes a roller-delayed blowback system, which is designed to soften felt recoil by managing the bolt's movement more effectively than traditional straight blowback actions found in many PCCs.
