Taurus 24/7 OSS .45 cal.
 
I just bought a taurus 24/7 oss yesterday and have seen today that the 24/7 pro has serious issues with magazine feeding/jamming. Does anyone have the 24/7 oss. If so does it have issues as well? Any intel is appreciated.

I would send it back ASAP. Taurus has an no questions asked lifetime warranty, and will fix or replace free to ensure your satisfaction.

Does it have the same problem as the pro model?

I was just nervous cause I haven't had a chance to shoot it. But I shot about 100 rounds through it last night with no problems except the aim point is alot lower than I would like. Other than that it handles real good!! I'm not regreting buying it yet.

You may be flinching, which will most likely cause a low poi. Purchase or borrow some snap caps, have someone load yourmag and have them watch as you fire. When youpull the trigger on a snap cap, yourfirearm should not move at all.

An incorrect grip will most likely result in a low poi.

If you are using abullet weight less than 230 gr in a 45 ACPthis can also cause a low shot (Taurus usually use sights for the heavier bullets). A heavier, slowerbullet will usually have a higher poi than a lighter, fasterbullet. Try shooting from sandbags (your wrists should be resing on the sandbag and not the firearm) and check your poi. You can also have someone who is well experienced and a good shotfiring a polymer handgun shoot your firearmto see how it shoots for them.

Do you have a NRA gun club in your area (they will be listed on the NRA website)? If so, I suggest taking the NRA Basic Pistol. I don't know how other clubs work, but at my club we work on not just safe firearm handling but also improving the accuracy of the students. I work as an RO for some of the courses at my club. Once the studentsdevelop safe habits we work on improving their accuracy.

I've had a PT 24/7 PRO in 45 acp for about 6 months. 1 magazine was ok but the other one wouldn't feed any round after the 1st one chambered. Dealer replaced the faulty magazine and I haven't had a problem for the last 500 rounds.

I should have mentioned that that faulty magazine would work ok as long as I didn't put more than 4 rounds in it.
