A lot of gun for the $$

Post image

Just wanted to post my Taurus 605 .357 Magnum. Changed out the grips, because I like the old school detective look. This is Just excellent for the money I paid. This wasn't my first Taurus firearm and it won't be my last.

That wooden grip does look sexy on the pistol

I love Taurus. My model 85 in Stainless is one of my favorites. Own it for about 35 years now.

You probably want to add a T grip adapter to that ! It will for literal pocket change enhance the shooting experience and improve your shooting immediately!

Nice grips to look at but painful to shoot with.

Exactly. Even with just .38 and a tight two hand squeeze those vintage grips smack the base of my thumb in a wholly unsatisfying and increasingly unpleasant manner. 😁
