Taurus makes a quality gun I like them best for making clones of popular guns for a more affordable price. From my experience with a PT-92 and PT-99 they are perfect for IDPA shoots. I use a PT-92 and a Millennium Pro PT-145 for IDPA, My carry gun is the PT-145 cant beat 10+1 rounds of the potent 45 acp in a sub compact that holds golf ball size groups at 25 feet and fist size groups at 45 feet. You might look at Taurus' PT-24/7 pistols they are a great lookin service pistol and have alot of good features to look for when choosing a IDPA weapon. Im guessin you are primarily lookin for a 9mm for punching paper the 92 or 911 would be a good choice.
