Taurus PT840 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Nice pistol, operated flawlessly. Trigger pull very smooth, even in double action. Will carry without safety on and hammer forward. Recoil was very manageable, with quick sight realignment. Fits hand great with supplied grip inserts. Magazine release is s

The finish is a little sharp. Like on the beaver tail, where theres a channel for the hammer when it's cocked, has sharp edges that may be too uncomfortable when it's pressed on your skin. Serrations on the slide are a little rough as well. But the gun sh

Had several questions about this pistol,Derek answered all professionally and honestly,received Taurus quickly and without any fuss.Took gun to range and ran several boxes of various loads including handloads and wadcutters all fed without problem and sho

I have a Taurus 24/7 in .40 SW. Great gun. Decided to get the 840 to have a firearm with a hammer and see how I liked it. Wow. An even greater gun! 3 backstraps which should fit just about any sized hand. And it is as comfortable as the 24/7 even thoug

I owed a Taurus PT 709 and had no problem at all. So I took a chance on another Taurus. My first impression after 20 shots was, WOW. The PT 840 was one of the most accurate gun I have ever shot. At 7 yards, I made one big hole with my first 20 shots. The

After lots a reading about different guns i went with the 840. I love it. Shot 130 rounds through it with no jams, no problems at all. Local gun shops wanted $520-$550 for this gun. I ordered it tuesday night and had it in my hands at the range on friday

I got a $375.00 DUD / WONT FIRE!!! I did extensive research and saw the writing on the wall, but I hoped against hope that I would get a good one out of the box. I was not so lucky... The weapon feels ok in hand, the finish is not bad at all, however i ha

Placed my order on 1/26/2011 and received it 1/28/2011. WOW!!! Very fast service... I was very impressed with the ordering and tracking information that is provided to the customer. Gives you a good peace of mind after the order has been placed. The gun a

I have had this gun for about 6 months now. First the good: The price of this gun cannot be beat. I am left handed and wanted a full featured full ambi handgun and this is one of the very few that offered everything I wanted, and hundreds cheaper than the

Great gun @ great price!!!!! Msrp on Taurus site is about $650. Can't beat Bud's price. This is my first personal handgun purchase. Overall quality was bad at first because I ordered a new pt 840 but when I received it, it had a pt 809 clip in the gun and

Good gun for a great price. I will start this review like most others on this gun and say that it looked like a floor model/refurb out of the box. The top of the chamber was worn in like the slide had been racked numerous times, or shot more than once. Th

people give taurus alot of crap i think they make good guns i reaily like this gun i put 200rds in it fast shipping great gun what more can i say

Budsgunshop.com is the best. I didn't believe the discount on all this brand new pistols until I received my PT 840 in the box in 100% brand new condition. I can't wait until I purchase another gun from Buds. Thanks

First the positive: This gun looks absolutely bad-ass. A little heavy, but very comfortable, and the weight helps absorb some of that .40 cal kick. Really sweet trigger, smooth as butter even in DA. Shoots anything you feed it with no jams, right out of b

Buds was great, as always. Will do business with Buds again. On the other hand, the gun is a disaster. FTF with all brands of ammo I tried. Tula just didn't run in this gun, WWB had 1 FTF every 10 rounds, same with federal. I thought the issue could be in

This is a very good weapon at an affordable price. The only knock I have is that there wasn't a bore brush or cleaning brush included with the gun. Overall I am pleased with both Bud's Guns, the transfer dealer and the pistol. Now I need to put a thousand

This gun absorbs the recoil of a 40 cal better than any other I've ever had. Bud's price and service were great.

Ordered this weapon during the last snow storm, Buds managed to ship the weapon to my FFL, in super fast time, Buds is amazing, they really are, and FFLs like them as well, all around pleasure to deal with Buds. Now, as for the Taurus PT840; First, this

Wow!!! This weapon is absolutely freaking awesome!! Accurate, accurate, accurate!!! Comes with 2 magazines, magazine loader. Absolutely beautiful weapon. As usual Buds has great service! Would I recommend this weapon......ABSOLUTELY!!!!! After 350 rounds

Very nice shooting gun. Very consistent right out of the box. The only thing that would make it better is if the magazine for was a little tighter.

I ordered this pistol a week before christmas with hope it would be here in time and sure enough, it got here on christmas eve. I was impressed with how quick it had gotten here! Thanks Bud's. As for the Taurus, i was aware of many past issues with their

Got this firearm exactly a week after ordering on Christmas Eve, so I am very pleased with the turnaround especially over the Christmas holiday. Just had the 840 out for the first time today (New Years Day) and put over 300 rounds through it, my word is t

Buds service was great. As for the weapon it's pretty good no failure at 100 rds out the box. Fit is ok no t bad for the price.

what I thought it woulb be. darn nice gun for the money. 50 rounds out of the box and all 50 ran great. buds shipping is great. I will buy more guns from buds.thanks buds!

3rd Purchase From Buds All Were GREAT ! My 4 Star Rating Is Only Because I Did Not Get A Mag Loader In My Box But I Did Get 2 Mags And A PT840 ........... Gun Was Looking And Functioning Great 50 Rounds Fresh Out Of The Box And All Was Well This Is My 1st

Very fast shipping. Great item and price.

As always a big salute to Buds and the Shipping department. Ordered Sunday night and had the gun in my hands by Tuesday afternoon. When I received the Taurus 840B my intent was to shoot it right out the box, however it was literately drowning in oil, (thi

Very pleased with my weapon. Shipping was fast. Gun is awesome

The Taurus 840B is an excellent purchase. I highly recommend this gun to anyone. One cannot go wrong with the price point of this weapon. If you are in the market for a 40 caliber handgun, look no further, and give this gun a chance. This is my third Taur

Great gun for the money, buds was fast on delivery awesome service, thanks buds.

Very nice buy I had this handgun and a sccy cpx2 on layaway I paid them off on a Tuesday and they were at my FFL on Thursday buds layaway and shipping is unbeatable. The Taurus was dirty and oily out of the box I clean up and put about 100 rounds though i

This is a great gun no issues after 150 rounds of mix 165 and 180 grain gun feels great in the hand its a great gun for the money, the gun is also well balance in weight and size and recoil is very manageable just a bit more than 9mm but almost unnoticiab

This handgun, just like the PT 809, is a VERY ACCURATE handgun. So much that I bought 2 add'l PT809 models. I am so pleased that I bought these. People at the range are shocked at the accuracy of these models...and yes it's the gun and the practice that c

didnt like this gun should have never bought it . but thats not to u would not like it.

Great pistol for the price. I have spent a lot more on pistols that don't function any better. The accuracy and hitting power of the 40 cal is close enough to a ,45 ACP to go with the 15 rd mag capacity that tipped the scale to this choice. Once again, Bu

great gun sweet shooter a must have
