Anyone have one or experience with one local gun shop ha them for $200 right now wanted to see if it's worth the money
 
My wife carries one. She loves it, got her a Crimson Trace for Christmas. No problems at all with function, but she has pretty small hands. I shot one mag out of it and gave it back. My hands are too big and my fingers got pinched. But for a backup, for the money, its a good little pistol
 
I have one that goes everywhere with me. It is small, but that's why it's always with me. I have had 4 friends buy one for themselves after shooting mine. I have only seen one of them have any type of problems and that turned out to be some flashing on the magazine follower that was keeping it from feeding correctly.

You gotta take them for what they are, I know there are more expensive .380's but I have had no problems with mine. Mine is surprising accurate once you get used to the trigger pull on it.

200$ is about the norm on them, I paid 190$ plus tax for mine about two years ago.
 
I have one that has over 2300 rounds of cast bullets through it without a single problem. It is twice the gun the Ruger LCP is and I'm a huge Ruger fan.

I got one. Thought about getting the wife one too when I found them on sale. The only problem I have had is with hollow points when I release the slide on the first round. Sometimes it hangs a bit and others it doesn't. While firing I've never had it hang with any ammo.
 
The slide return spring is very stiff on these tiny guns. I have seen several ladies who could not rack the slide on one. They are reliable and more accurate than they should be for the size. It is probably the most popular hideout gun sold at the local Academy- I worked the gun counter there for about a year. For $200 it is a real deal.
 
nice little pistol didnt fit my hand well and even then it was more accurate than expected i now carry a sigp238 in my back pocket but would have no problem trusting the taurus as my backup as well
