New carry gun!
Over the weekend I picked up a new Taurus Slim 9mm. So far like it very slim and easy to conceal unlike the brick I had before it. I do need to find the pinky extender though

Re: New carry gun!
Have you shot it yet? I believe there may be two or more variations of this gun, maybe an early version and a later version?

Re: New carry gun!
I just picked one up as well. I'm looking for a pocket holster for it. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but I love the size and fit of it.

Re: New carry gun!
I've had my PT-709 for about 4 years and I recently bought a set of 4 extensions for my mags. After about 2 weeks of carrying with the new mag extensions installed, I noticed that whenever I would sit down, the horn of the extensions pressed hard against the inside of my shirts, leaving a very noticeable protrusion whenever I stood up. I carry in an OWB holster at the 3 o'clock position and the only way I found to stop the printing was to move my OWB forward. I soon realized that this was an unacceptable compromise and I removed all the extensions from my mags. Thankfully, I was able to get ALL my money back by selling them on eBay. YMMV.The Mad Moderate wrote:Shot it today, shoots well but really want the grip extension.
