Re: Taurus Slim

I looked at one at a local Academy recently. Some kid behind the counter had one out and was looking at it. I struck up a conversation thinking it was a Kel Tec at first glance. My initial impressions as much as I handled it were good...lots more refined than a Kel Tec. About the same size as the P11 minus the horrible trigger pull of the Kel Tec...has the Glock type trigger safety as well as a manual safety...appeared to be a very light DA pull or single action on the first shot (kid behind the counter could not confirm).

The only negative I found was what seemed like a looong trigger pull...it seemed like I had to pull the trigger all the way rearward and into the grip before the thing would fire. It felt a little unnatural like my finger was actually having to curl backwards and my mits are not the largest. But, then again, I shoot a 1911 a lot and I'm sure it's just a different muscle memory.
