Bang for the buck its hard to beat. It is a large frame even with the smallest back strap. Good accuracy. Trigger is a bit heavy but nothing I can't live with. I've used various ammo from self defense loads to tula with no jams. Overall A+

Other than a rather heavy factory trigger pull (12+ #s), I have no complaints. Bought one earlier as a gift and had the trigger worked on and it is perfect. Very accurate!! Love this gun! As always, the transaction with Bud's was flawless!! I will buy all

This is a really nice firearm for the price. Comes in a case with two extra backstraps, a bore brush, and an extra mag. I love the feel and smooth action on this gun. Mag slides in like butter with one finger and drops straight back out. Ambidextrous safe

over all, i'm happy with this purchase, although i'm not a polymer fan...but the price and the fact that taurus has a life time, transferable warranty pretty much sold me this pistol...i've only got to shoot 170 rnds through it but with that no FTF or FTE

This is a great gun. I enjoy that the gun has a hammer. It is very similar to the 24/7 frame. The gun unfortunately doesn't like bulk reloads I got a lot of stove pipes but it eats federal AE. My 24/7 didn't like bulk at first but once I got about 500 rnd

I’ve owned two other Taurus handguns before ordering the PT840: the PT 111 9mm and PT1911 in .45. I’ve had great success with those but small issues with the 840. The major thing was the fact that the slide would not “slingshot” closed. Read up on it and

I don't quite get how Taurus & Bud's can make a dime on this pistol at $344! Well made, fits my hand well (but has multiple backstraps if you have extra large or small hands), fit and finish are outstanding for the price. Shoots about 3 inches low at 10 y
