![]() ![]() Soon, Taurus offered the PT-92 and PT-99 - solid guns at affordable prices. Seeing opportunity, Taurus bought the Beretta plant, tooling and designs, also neatly inheriting an experienced workforce skilled at building Beretta pistols. Meanwhile, the current ownership of Taurus had purchased the Taurus brand and assets back from Bangor Punta. Beretta was required to open a factory in Brazil and use local labor. In 1974, the Italian gunmaker won a contract to produce pistols for the Brazilian military - with certain conditions. The partnership produced a series of handguns like the Model 82 six-shot revolver, a close mirror of the popular S&W Model 10.Įnter Beretta. As sister companies, S&W shared American gun designs while Taurus contributed design, manufacturing and fabrication experience. In 1970, mega-conglomerate Bangor Punta, then owner of Smith & Wesson, bought a controlling interest in Taurus. Over its history, the company developed some interesting partnerships, resulting in a flood of classic guns offering similar, and near identical designs, at more affordable price points. Founded in Porto Alegre, Brazil back in 1939 and known officially as Forjas Taurus (Taurus Forge) the company manufactured tools and dies until its first revolver offering in 1941 - the Model 38101SO. Seeing an opportunity for a fresh approach, the GLOCK pistol was born - you know the rest of the story. Gaston Glock didn’t know diddly squat about guns but did know a thing or two about materials and engineering. The story of successful gun companies emerging from some material or fabrication expertise in an unrelated field is not new. You’re probably familiar with the company’s more popular handguns like the Millennium Series, PT-24/7, Spectrum, Judge, Raging Bull and a slew of other pistols and revolvers. So, what is this gun I’ve seen brand-new on the streets for about $250? The Taurus G3 polymer-framed striker-fired pistol. We’ll have to see if this bold strategy pays off! I’m just kidding - I’m always happy to save two cents here and there. Why the 98 cents? My guess is they’re trying to undercut all those models tagged with a “.99” price suffix. This issue’s cover feature is an eminently affordable gun with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price starting at just $327.98. Whether or not you’re in the frustrated “it’s out of my reach” camp, we’ve got some delightful news for you. I’ll drool over pictures of a Bugatti Veyron any day of the week even though the odds of me owning one are about the same as Nancy Pelosi speaking at the next NRA Annual Meeting. On the other hand, it’s fun to see and learn about top-shelf products, even if they don’t rank equally with luxuries like food, water and electricity on the family budget. Seeing expensive guns made of unobtainium feels like watching someone else scarf down a bone-in ribeye served on a sizzling steel plate - with a side of Brazilian rolls dripping with butter. Magazine includes sleeve that acts as a filler for the gap between frame and base plate of magazine.Sometimes we at Handgunner take a little heat for highlighting guns requiring a letter of credit from a Swiss bank to buy.
