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’.

Analysis

This .45 Auto caliber pistol offers a solid option for shooters seeking a reliable duty or personal defense firearm. Its accuracy is commendable, with consistent performance at moderate ranges, making it suitable for both novice and experienced users. The ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip, accommodating various hand sizes with adjustable backstraps, which enhances control during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, as it functions well under diverse conditions with minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, requiring more effort than some competing models, and parts availability may pose challenges for repairs or customization. The trigger pull is smooth with a predictable break, though some may find it slightly heavier than ideal for rapid follow-up shots. Felt recoil is manageable, even with the potent .45 Auto round, though it may feel pronounced for shooters unaccustomed to larger calibers.
