Taurus makes great guns.. I have 3 of them with over 9,000 rounds through them. And zero malfunctions.. I just got a new sig and beretta and had multiple malfunctions with steel case ammo.. but the Taurus’s ate that same ammo with no problem.. they’re not just good for the money they’re better than most stuff on the market

I bought a GX4 and picked it up early May. I've had nothing but feeding issues with multiple brands of ammo, and the front sight came off within the first 50 rounds. Sent it back to Taurus who replaced the sight, barrel, and recoil spring. Took it out last week and again today and still having multiple feeding issues. Today I shot around 344 rounds and had 63 failure to feeds or failure to chamber the first round. I will be sending it back again. This is a bummer because I have a G2C and have not had any issues with that. Also bought a TX22 the same time as the GX4, and that has worked fine except for some ammo issues.

One of the best guns ever designed in my opinion. Hope to get one myself one day soon. Not a huge fan of the G2/G3 series. I think they're good guns and don't dislike them. I just think there are many other better guns... but the GX4 really is an excellent gun in my opinion. Love the Stamped Stainless Chassis design and wish more companies did that. Like the full length rail also. Can't say it's the best trigger design or anything like that... but it definitely works and is a safe, reliable firearm. (so there's no complaints about that). My only worry is the finish on the slide. I don't know if it's common, but I've seen some with a lot of wear compared to other guns. (Like, a man will have a 1yr old GX4 that he's carried a lot and a 5yr old P365 that he's carried more than 3x more... but the GX4 will still have far more visible wear).

@@arkansasoutdoorschannel1867 I worry about rust... but as far as I know, the color wearing off doesn't mean that the finish/protection has worn off. I just like to know my guns are protected though.

Always keep up on oiling and maintenance... but then just out of nowhere I'd have seriously rusted parts that were just oiled like 2-3 months before.

I bought my GX4 for my NEW EDC in June 2021 and have had 0, No, issues to this date and have run over 2,000 rounds. Wasn't looking for a firearm that was Optics ready or had a 'rail'. I wanted a small 9mm that would be the best for self defense, concealment, yet have quality and be dependable. I wasn't going to be in any shooting competition with the GX4 as I have other firearms for that. Purchased the GX4 at my local Scheels and got the last one in stock at that time - 329.00. Received the pinky extensions (2) for the two 11 rd mags that were included and that completed the grip for me....good to go with my pinky on board. Of course my 13 rd mag has the extension. That's all I needed to do to get the GX4 the way I wanted it on my hip...or wherever I carry it. Recently upgraded to the Tru-Glow sights which is a great add-on over the factory sights. Also have now a Viridian Red Laser which was an easy mount not having a rail.

Waiting for my GX4 I wanted to buy originally because of how it felt in my hand a year ago already but waited for glitches and factory returns to decrease. You can't beat the current price plus a rebate. Dealer convinced me a few weeks ago going for the GX4 the M&P Shield Plus is better. I wanted a pocket carry which the Shield is not and I overlooked to my regret. Its trigger also bites me. I only use my guns for range purposes. Shrunk some electrical shrink tubing amount the trigger of the Shield+. It is not a recommendation to you as it could jeopardize the safety of your gun. Just something that works for me. If you want a friendly trigger, feel out the Caniks. My best gun by far is a TP 9 Elite SC. It is not SC. It is a full size compact just as the Shield is not a pocket carry bur a concealed carry gun. 3 very different sizes. Remember that carrying a prayer is more important than carrying a gun.
