Miami, FL-(Ammoland.com)- Taurus USA sets the new standard for concealed carry handguns with the introduction of the new Taurus G2C series semi-automatic pistols. These streamlined, performance-driven autoloaders strike the ideal balance between comfort and confidence in both self-defense and target shooting conditions.

Chambered in .40 S&W caliber, the new G2C pistol is built on a rugged polymer frame that includes aggressive stipling, ergonomically placed along the grip to ensure firearm retention and to maintain positive hand alignment for optimal accuracy. The compact profile (1.25″ wide x 6.25″ long x 5.0″ tall) combined with the 10-round (.40 S&W) capacity magazines’ contoured grip extension delivers a solid, comfortable hold for small- or large-hand shooters.

Operation of the G2C is straightforward, thanks to a striker-fire, double-action trigger system that includes restrike capability. A manual, external safety is located conveniently above the thumb for quick manipulation in stressful conditions. The reversible magazine release is also ergonomically positioned for rapid, one-hand mag drops during tactical mag changes. Integrated into the G2C frame is a Mil-STD 1913 Picatinny rail to accept an accessory light or a laser.

The G2C is available in either the 9mm Luger and the .40 S&W G2C and both models are offered with either a matte black carbon steel slide or with a matte stainless-steel slide. The slide contours blend with the frame to promote a smooth, snag-free draw and re-holster. Precision-cut slide serrations provide a no-slip grip when charging the pistol. Topping the slide is a fixed white dot front sight and a dual white dot rear sight with elevation and windage adjustment.

Developing a handgun with the ideal mix of solid, reliable performance, an ergonomic design suited for a wide range of shooters, and a compact, lightweight profile that wears comfortable and “prints light” for everyday carry is no simple matter. The new Taurus G2C series checks off all these “must-have” boxes in single pistol platform…and raises the benchmark in the CCW arena.

Is this pistol California compliant??

Jimbob

Yeah.
They screwed people like me out of a .40 & .45 in their recall, by only offering a 9mm (PT111G2, then a G2C) as a replacement.
Not that they are bad pistols, but I did not need another nine.
Figured something like this would happen once the recall started winding down.

I own two of these in 9mm that I picked up for $200 at Cabelas of all places. Fantastic shooters. They are surprisingly accurate for a 3 ” barrel. The trigger definately needs work though. Long travel and not smooth at all. Overall, the features these firearms have compared to price is terrific. Accuracy is good, reliabilty… don’t know yet. I won’t carry until I have a few more rounds downrange.
