Anybody have any info on this new offering? I saw them talking about it on Guns & Ammo TV, they mention an MSRP of $500.00. If it's a decent pistol that is a steal for a 1911-style pistol.
I just saw this pistol on TV where they were showing it at the shot show. You're right
now as soon as I can wipe the drool off my face, I'm calling the gun shop and order one.
Looks very nice. Stainless, ambidexterous safety (which is good for us leftys), good sights, and a bunch of other offerings. Taurus rep stated that they have about $800 in what you would pay in custom work into these pistols at a MSRP of $499.

RE: 1911-style Taurus?
My dealer didnt have a whole lot of details for me, I do know they are offered in 45 acp for sure. I have a strong feeling taurus will offer them in other calibers too. Any ideas on when they will be available for ordering? earlier i mentioned i had oredered one i should have specified Im actually on a waiting list , so once they are available to be ordered my dealers knows howmany to order. I cant wait im soooo looking forward to having that gun in my hands.

Dang that thing is loaded with features. It also looks to be very well finished. I hope the insides look as good as the outside does and it shoots as good as it looks.
HDW, is that price retail??????
I just may have to snatch one up when we get them.
