Off topic, but that statement is not true. Cheaper helmets have been found to offer more protection than more expensive ones. In their tests, the $80 bargain helmet was the best protecting helmet.The Annoyed Man wrote:Honestly, I think it would be difficult to find even a used pistol from a quality maker in caliber 9mm or greater for under $300. That said, how much money one is willing to spend for a pistol is analogous to how much money one would be willing to spend for a motorcycle helmet... ...the operative question being, "how much is your head worth?"

Back on topic, Taurus has come a long ways in quality in their semi auto line. I've owned 2 of the 24/7 series in 9mm. Keltec also offers the PF9 and P11, both in 9mm. I owned a PF9 for a while and I had no problems with it. I sold it when I picked up my LCP.
