Taurus PT145Pro - opinions?

[K7lvo]

I had a chance to take a look at a PT145Pro today. I like the way it feels. Asking price is $360. I'm looking for information, thoughts, and opinions on the gun. Thanks.

I bought a PT 145 Millenium Pro for my son and he loves it. When I was researching them, everybody said the millenium Pro was good, but the plain old Pro wasn't. I can't remember why. I don't personally own a Taurus. I don't have anything against them. I just don't happen to own one.

good gun but trigger pull is no good very hard to get use to long pull and hard trigger

The PT145 is a good gun for what is designed to be, the long hard trigger pull is best for a concealed carry gun, the short barrel is nice and small but not best for accuracy. I like the XDs.45 better for all the reasons i like the PT145.

Also look at the Taurus PT24/7 G2. I am leaning toward that over the 145 pro.
Just feels better to me and holds 12 +1 rounds.

Thanks for the input!

I thought the trigger pull was pretty nice, but I don't have a lot to compare it to. I wound up buying it for $330. It is the Millenium, with the stainless steel slide. I took it to the range an put 50 rounds through it, more to test function than anything else, and found that it ate a mixture of ball, semi-wad cutters, and hollow points without a whimper. Again, not trying for accuracy, I was able to hit an 18" plate at 100’ about half the time.
