I'm not huge on Taurus pistols, but I got offered this and some cash to pay off a debt I was owed. I put a couple mags through it and I actually like it.

    That generation of the millennium pro pistol is so new that you may have trouble getting an opinion. I know that those are pretty inexpensive.

    Bsides a few revolvers I have a Taurus 24/7 compact in .45 acp. The .45 has been flawless as has been the revolvers.

    I hope the internet haters keep going so that the prices stay down.

    I guess I don't know what's not to like about Taurus.
    Every one I've ever handled or fired has been top drawer, including an auto loader or two.
    Arrivederci gigi

    I have a few Taurus guns. The only one i got rid of was a 24/7 longslide that had hiene sights.

    The gun shot great but that was the only gun with that sight in my safes. So i traded it for a gun that had 3 dots.

    2 dots i just do not shoot well.

    The Taurus pistols have been 50-50 very good or very bad.If they were bad,and you send them back for the lifetime warranty repair,for the most part came back as bad,or worse than when you sent them off.Take your chances.

    I have no experience with Taurus firearms, but hey, if it works and you like it, sounds like a winner to me.

    My experience has been limited and does not include a Millennium, but it has been positive with revolvers and negative with semi-autos. My now gone 24/7 was a jamomatic. I have not had to send one back for service, so I cannot comment on that.

    Supposedly that is one of the most reliable pistols that Taurus has made. Rumor has it Sig 226 mags work in it.

    I actually bid on one on the auction side, won it, then had the seller send me a Ruger LCP instead. Gave him few more $$.

    That's interesting about the mags. I will have to look into that.

    I appears that it would be a lot more comfortable to shoot than the Ruger LCP.

    I have an LCP and this is definitely more comfortable to shoot.

    The LCP conceals a bit better though.

    We sell lots of G2's, no complaints. Nothing but praise so far, looks like Taurus got it right.

    I put 20 more rounds of 124 grain fmj ammo down the pipe today. I'm impressed! I think you are right.

    get back at the 500 round mark, i dont consider that even broke in, but i have seen problems arise around the 500 mark, i personally wont consider carrying a gun until it has 2,000 through it with zero malfunctions

    Valid point. I'm just impressed by the feel and function so far. Like I said, I've never been much of a Taurus pistol guy.
