About the Gun

The striker-fired PT-24/7 pistol features an injection molded polymer frame, a frame-mounted manual safety lever, a visible/tactile loaded chamber indicator and a dust cover Picatinny accessory rail. Handling characteristics of 24/7 pistols are enhanced by ergonomic design attributes which Taurus calls 'Memory pads', consisting of various grooves which promote proper consistent hand placement for superior handling control. In addition, a secure grasp of the pistol grip is afforded by a high adhesion gripping surface. An option on selected basic 24/7 pistols and standard on Pro models is a soft, ribbed, non-slip, hand-conforming grip which Taurus calls the ‘Ribber’.

Production

Production of this firearm began in 2004 and continued until around 2010. It was part of a series designed for reliability and versatility, manufactured during a period when polymer-framed models gained popularity among shooters.

Analysis

This .40 S&W semi-automatic pistol offers a solid blend of performance and user-friendly design for shooters seeking a versatile duty or personal defense firearm. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges, while the ergonomic grip provides a secure hold, accommodating various hand sizes with customizable backstraps. Reliability is a strong point, with the firearm cycling smoothly through a variety of ammunition types under standard conditions. The trigger pull, averaging around 5 pounds in double-action mode, is smooth and predictable, though some may find the single-action pull slightly less crisp. Felt recoil is manageable, even with the potent .40 caliber, thanks to a well-balanced frame. On the downside, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome due to intricate disassembly, and sourcing replacement parts may pose challenges in certain regions. Additionally, some users report the weight feels excessive for extended carry.
