The entity which is handling the claims is Heffler, whose phone number is 1-844-528-0180.

I called them today and the recording states that 3 parties have disputed the settlement, so it is not yet finished.

I was considering turning in my PT-111 for the $50 gift card at the Fort Worth PD gun buyback, but I will just hold onto it, in hopes of getting a new G2.

As soon as AndyC began this thread, 7.28.15!, I stopped carrying this potential time bomb and moved to other pistols.

The link above says that reimbursement may be made "up to $200".
I wonder what determines any individual's exact reimbursement.

With regards to getting your mags back, I don't recall if it was Taurus' site,
or someone else's, but some manufacturer states that magazines will not be returned
due to the patchwork of laws regarding different states' maximum magazine sizes.

States with restrictive mag sizes usually limit it to 10 rounds, but I believe NYS
has a 7 round limit. IIRC, a 10 rounder in NYS is OK as long as you only partially
load it with 7 rounds. Thank goodness we don't have that nanny state nonsense here.

At such time as I call the claims number above, I will post the substance of the call
on this thread. Don't hold your breath for my entry. You are free to go the fridge
for a cold beverage. :-)

My most recent call to them was on 8/28/15, and at that time they still had
no details on what the settlement will give to those of us who have the guns on the list.
The rep said to call once a month and/or watch the Taurus website for details.
Thanks for nothing.

I don't see any sense to sending my pistol in just to be checked. I don't want it checked.
When the settlement is finalized the best case scenario for me would be to get a check,
which I can then use to buy another Springer, Ruger, or something else "non-Taurus".

If a check is not in the cards, I would take a new Taurus G2, but I'd rather have the cash.

WinoVeritas:

So if your MilPro's are to be replaced, can we assume that they will be replaced by G2 models?

If I can't get the $150/$200 cash, I would settle for a PT111 G2 in FDE (Flat Dark Earth).
I would prefer the cash in order to buy a different brand of pistol.

IIRC, the G2's don't have any problems with the manual safety.

Comments?

I just got off the blower with Taurus Customer Service...not happy.

The agreement has not been finalized. The rep has no idea when it will
be available or any details.

So I guess that carbon fiber gray and black full size M & P I yearned for
Is a lot further from my grasp!

Andyc:
Thank you kindly for this link. I still have the 1st handgun
I ever bought - a PT111 for $279.99. For me, getting even $150
for a problem gun is fine.

That $150 or $200 will get me partway to a new pistol.

Decisions, decisions....XDS? XDM? LC9S? Rock Island 1911? Springer 1911?
Ruger 1911?

I could go on and on!
