Bought from a friend, so he cut me a deal. Its a k frame, shoots very nice, I was impressed, hear all the taurus bashing but this is great, its an older gun i believes 80's manufactured.

I think Taurus actually makes good stuff, it's just that their customer support (at least in Canada) isn't so good.

At least they offer a lifetime warranty though, too many guns offer a year only. And Taurus doesn't require you to be original owner. Sure I'd rather have a Smith and Wesson but this was a very good deal.

I don't have a problem with Taurus, but with old Smith & Wesson guns floating around everywhere, I don't think I'd ever buy one myself. Regardless, 300 for a whole kit like that is a great deal, and you get to help your buddy out in the process. Happy shooting!

Looks like it was a great deal with all the extras. Enjoy.

Going to need accessories, I have 2 HKS loaders and will need more. Maybe some safariland loaders their supposed to be very good. Also, my holster is a little stiff. Its made for very secure field carry, i need a smooth holster for the range.
