I'm not a huge fan of either, but between the two, I would probably take the Taurus

I am assuming you asking the concealed carry question because you are going to rely on the tool to perserve your life. I would ask you, how much is your life worth? I have had a Taurus PT99 and loved it. I traded it and bought an HK. I carry a Glock. I want to make sure the tool I am carrying does what it is supposed to do. If you are sure that you can trust either of these two tools, then the price should not matter. I hope you are not using price as a means to figure what you can afford. But of those two, I agree with Reaper because of the history I have had with the Taurus company.
sorry for the lecture...

I say save up and get a HK, Glock, Springfield XD(m),or something along those lines. Taurus and Kel Tec I would look at for a possible back up piece.

I am glad your glock goes bang 100% of the time. Just point it in the right direction 100% of the time. LOL

yeah, the "how much is your life worth" is a valid question, but the fact is that if you don't have the money to drop on a Glock (don't overlook used, though), then you get what you can. I have had two Taurus pistols and both were wonderful guns. My PT92 had close to 15,000 rounds through it with two malfunctions I can remember, both of which were simunitions I fired without the adapter. Get the Taurus, feel safe, trade up in the future if you want. You will be fine with a Taurus, don't let the gun snobs convice you otherwise. I'm a Glock guy, it feels great, shoots great, and stands up to my dremel tool like a champ.

If you can't win their hearts and minds, then expose their hearts and minds to open oxygen. WHEN IN DOUBT, THIRTY OUT!!
