I originally got the TX-22 as a range gun to train newbies with and have fun with but after seeing how accurate and reliable it is I started using it as my daily carry, I could carry a 9mm or a .45ACP but honestly accuracy and speed is more important to me and it's less heavy making it easier to carry, it's less disorienting and loud if I ever did need to use it in self defense, it's easier to rack the slide if needed and holds 16 rounds, Ammo is cheap and I can shoot it more and overall it's my favorite gun I own.
@@titusandrew946do you use the mag loader or finger holders on the mags? I have to use the mag loader or I’ll get nose dives . I was worried at first but thankfully I found that out the day I got it and instantly corrected the issue for me
I’ve put more close to 3,000 rounds through my Taurus TX-22. I love the feel of this gun as well as the great trigger. It is a ton of fun to shoot and relatively inexpensive to buy. Bravo Taurus.
I love my Taurus TX22. I have right at a thousand rounds through it and only 2 issues and both were ammo related. The first five hundred rounds was cheap range ammo I inherited from my Dad and it was about 30+ years old and stored in his toolshed for most of that time. Ran like nobody's business except for the two failures to fire. Thanks for the video.
Quality firearm - Mines been exceptionally reliable. No problem carrying this, 16 reliable rounds of 22 is gtg in my book. Light weight is a major bonus.
This was my first pistol (bought it for a new shooter class), never a issue with the gun, It had/has the best grip I have handled of the pistols that I own. I regret trading it. I may just do a repurchase of this one. 👍
Love my TX22....as far as a "carry" gun, not what I bought it for...It's a plinker out on the property and cheap to buy at that! I have ran all kinds of .22 ammo thru it with no issues...great review. Gun channels crack me up when they all want to show us the gun is "cleared", like it gives us piece of mind... makes me feel so much more safe at my kitchen table that it is not going to discharge and go thru the internet to shoot me 🤣
It is kinda funny but it’s a good habit and it’s sort of a subliminal reminder to viewers to do the same when handling their guns. Can never be too careful with our firearms.
This is THE best .22LR pistol on the market, bar none. When loaded with GDHP-SB (Gold Dot) ammo it's quite capable of being a self-defense option!! I wouldn't want to be shot by it!!!
I have a Taurus TX 22 and have found its performance very good with a wide variety of 221r ammunition. I might mention that Taurus has just released its newest 22lr semi-auto: Taurus TX 22 Compact. So the concealed carry size issue may be mostly resolved compampared to its bigger brother! I will find out soon since I recently ordered one from Bass Pro. While the compact version is very similar in design, there ae a number of design changes. The Compact version supports 10 and 13 round magazines (comes with 2 magazines) and apparently will also support the 16 magazine from the larger TX. It seems the size will be very similar to the S&W M&P 22lr Compact.
Absolutely love my tx-22. I bought it about a week ago and ran 525 rounds of blazer 38 grain through it. I had one failure to feed at a little over 400 rounds. Other than that, I had no issues at all. I bought it as a range gun and do not intend on carrying it. Very happy with my purchase. Thanks for your review
I started out looking for a TX22 but couldn't find one that wasn't asininely overpriced then out of the blue they come out with the TX22 Comp and I found one for a great deal and I just love everything about the pistol.......It looks good shoots lights out with the ammo it likes and comes with 3 16 rd mags.......One of the best pistols I own.
I replaced the front sight on mine with a green fiber optic. I absolutely enjoy my TX22. Thing just runs. CCI, Winchester, Federal, whatever it just runs.
@@mishagofman1706 never even heard of it. Looks to be a defense ammo. I tend to only buy bulk though, so that would explain why I hadn't seen it. CCI and Winchester hollowpoints ran just fine though.
And Taurus has solved this problem with the tx22 optic ready compact now! 13 round mags, and the 16 rounders for the full size are compatible. P.S. I carry my full size easily...not that much different than my 9mm shield plus.
I loathe Taurus, but the TX22 punches above it's weight. At six K rounds through mine I have to concede it's a good gun. Fun to shoot, as reliable as any twenty two except perhaps the MUCH more expensive Mark series Ruger's. I have the G44 Glock and the P322 Sig. I think they are both more robust than the TX and have other advantages. However, when it comes to making even the cheapest ammo go bang when the pin hits it, the only 22 I own that beats it is a Mark Ruger. Feeds better, goes off when asked... is easy to shoot. Not as accurate as the Sig... that fixed barrel and great trigger on the Sig wins there. But the gun costs a hundred and fifty more at the LGS in my area. On the other hand I had to buy a new barrel for mine after only 600 rounds. Warranty is sort of good, but shipping the gun back to them cost more than they wanted for a barrel. Besides that, the gun has been outstanding. The Ruger is better in every way, but at twice the price... Buy it if you are willing to possibly wear it out at less than 10k rounds. How many people really shoot that much? And for the price you can buy a second one.
I had the sig P322 and I was not impressed. Great trigger and ergonomics but I was getting constant FTFs, three or four per magazine. The only ammo that didn't cause problems was CCI mini mags, but they're twice the price. I was very careful how I loaded it, making sure the rounds were sitting properly in the magazine and it still didn't matter. I gave up on it and ended up trading it in for the TX 22 compact
I'm glad they made a Compact that's Optic Ready (and the ejection port has been expanded). I do think for the large size of the grip, they could redesign mags to hold more rounds; however, 13+1 isn't bad. I would have preferred the P322 be a bit smaller overall (closer to a 365XL) and hold 15 instead of 21...but I do love they have 25rd mags as well.
Mine came in today.pick it up in the morning. Ive been having problems with my arm muscles, dexterity. So this will work just fine.i guess put alot in the same spot with the 22.thanks for the video 👍
I really like my TX22, got it when it first came out. I usually wait a year or two to make sure there’s no quality issues but it’s been great. I heard they have 20 rd mags now supposedly. Got a small can on the way should be a blast when that gets here! 👍🏻
It's simply the easiest handgun I have ever operated. With federal punch or any CCI, the gun is extremely reliable. Mine doesn't like remmington thunderbolts, but I think the magazines needed cleaning.
My 1st Taurus will be this TX22, I predict! Its really nice that it holds 16 and has the treaded barrel adaptor. Now that the shipping companies are doing their worst with firearms and parts and accys, I am gonna find one locally.
Thanks for your low key, thorough, objective style. I’m a new shooter and bought one to practice with because it’s similar in size to my EDC. I’ve had trouble finding ammo it likes but think I’m on the right track.
Great Video. I have bought 3 TX 22's. I have had a feeding issue with one of them. Probably had 7 miss feeds in a couple hundred rounds. Waiting on my super lube to come in so I can take apart the mags and clean and lube them. It's a dry lube. I also have a tube of semi chrome coming so I can polish my feed ramps. but it could of been the Winchester M22's. I hear that is pretty bad ammo. But my HK 416 22 rifle took them fine. Thanks William
I don't think this was made for a carry weapon, more of a really nice backyard trainer that you could run 1,000 rounds a weekend for $70. Really get pistol handling down, and learning the sight picture, and still getting a few mags of your 9mm carry gun to put what you learn on the .22 into practice. Without spending 4x the money on 9mm. I believe even the most budget minded people should be able to practice and defend themselves. The real reason this gun exists...it's just so cute and fun. Lmao
I have one and I think it's a good gun so far.i think with no.. recoil compared with the bigger calibers and good bullet placement and good reliable ammo I think it would be just fine in changing attacker's mind.
I have the Taurus 942 3 inch barrel Revolver 8 shot. Shoots great. I keep it at bedside. Taurus also makes a lite version of 2 and 3 inch barrel 942 as well as 22 magnum versions.
great review. Ive been looking for the perfect way to make this my everyday carry. I have a Sig P365 that is great, but ergonomics and recoil+ accuracy make this a great gun for me. With 16 rounds I can hit almost anything, so stopping power isn't necessarily my biggest concern. My challenge is finding an IWB or Pocket Holster that fits my cargo shorts life style. Thoughts?
Have Ruger SR 22 in 3.5 and 4.5 barrel. Have Sig P-322. I would it at least is on par with them. TX 22 is a winner. Had Glock 44 but it was disappointment. Traded it passing on that it was a problem child., got less than half of what I paid for it.
TAURUS has really redeemed themselves with this and the G3C series guns. Haters need to give these guns a try, you will be pleased with performance. Taurus had some poor performers in the past that really smeared thier name with alot of people. This TX22 in particular is a "Track star".
If you are using the gun in a defensive role spend the extra couple of dollars...I can find regular CCI target 40gr .22 for 10 cents a round, velocitors or stingers for 20 cents a round...of course any brand bulk ammo will be less expensive, and that ammo fine for range work...but don't jeopardize real life to save a quarter (.25 cents) on ammo...
As for bulk .22 we like the cheapest brands available, noting that certain guns seem to prefer certain ammo brands...our .22 autos (both Rugers) run Remington Thunderbolts beautifully, so we keep a good supply on hand...other folks will mention Blazers, Aguila, and Federal...if any of these brands really, really makes your tx22 sing start buying...
Taught ladies for five years, used bulk federal copper plated. I explained to them of stopages that could occur and what to do to clear and get the gun back into action quickly. Within a few practice sessions they cleared and reloaded quickly. Value of cheap ammo. CCI minimags proven performers, nose shape is important for anything you feed it. One thing I have learned the most is clean inside of mags at least 1/2 way down inside with a good bristle 32 or 38 brush. That follower needs a clear path. Carry ammo that you have proven WORKS 100% IN YOUR GUN. BE WISE.
I just got the tx22 compact. Most of the tx22 reviews are very positive and I figured they have it refined. I've put some 300 rounds through my compact mostly minimag and aguila super extra but some stinger and velociter. I've had 4 feed fails, 1 stinger 2 aguila and one if the others. They all jam feeding the bullet into the top of the barrel. Its irritating and certainly not worth tge $330 I paid. I bought into the hype. I'd give it a don't buy. He just mentioned tge Remington golden bullet. Just yesterday, 012723, one of those Remington blew up in my Ruger mark 2 target. Blew powder in my face, blew the entire end- the primer cap off, never found that. A box of 525 Remington golden bullets are trash! I was hoping, but I was taken on the tx22 compact. It's accurate, when it works it's fun, but I'm always waiting for it to jam. Good review, but I feel like they sold the junk of old days in the compact.
Well, not really. The same number of rounds of 9mm weighs way more. The 9 recoils way more. The 9 slide is way harder to rack and the mags harder to load. Context.
Your "Gun Snobs" have every right to stay away from The Taurus Platform because of their History of Problems in the past and this also applies to the Kel-Tec Platform with similar problems in their past. Having said this, I gave Taurus a Second Chance a while back with several models to the .380 and I soon gave up again with problems with these guns and I also gave Kel-Tec a second chance when the Ammo Shortage/Price Increase started to happen and I purchased my Very First .22 hand gun. I have to say that this Kel-Tec P17 has been, to my shock, a Great Firearm and after shooting over 1000 rounds with No Failures of any kind, I decided to buy another one and I now have Two Great .22 Guns. I'm sure Taurus has made a fine .22 and I wish them well but I will stick with my two Kel-Tec 22LR Guns which have proved to be Great Guns for my needs!
I am crossing my fingers. I just ordered a TX22 that I will pick up this week. I am a little hesitant though. On the taurus firearms forum, plenty of folks with issues and recent buyers too. I pray I have a good one. Glad its worked out for you.
Let me get this straight, a .22 LR as a carry weapon? Are you people NUTS? I think you better do some ballistic research BEFORE you decide to conceal carry this caliber.
Military testing shows that 22lr is definitely a lethal round. It always comes down to shot placement with handguns. I would trust a TX22 to be reliable for carry. But I don't carry 22. But if I didn't have enough money, this could be a good option because ammo is expensive.
One thing I like about this firearm is the indentations above the trigger guard are basically built in gas pedals and with hardly any recoil you can shoot it as fast as possible 🤌

I just watched a video of the tx22 with 37,000 rounds and still going strong, all original parts
I am crossing my fingers. I just ordered a TX22 that I will pick up this week. I am a little hesitant though. On the taurus firearms forum, plenty of folks with issues and recent buyers too. I pray I have a good one. Glad its worked out for you.
It was a good one so far, 300 flawless rounds through my TX-22.
A shooting channel video without any shooting ? Most folks would have to have a little range time to have a definitive opinion..
👍👍👍👍👍👍

I want trade my Taurus g3c for a tx22
Let me get this straight, a .22 LR as a carry weapon? Are you people NUTS? I think you better do some ballistic research BEFORE you decide to conceal carry this caliber.
Military testing shows that 22lr is definitely a lethal round. It always comes down to shot placement with handguns. I would trust a TX22 to be reliable for carry. But I don't carry 22. But if I didn't have enough money, this could be a good option because ammo is expensive.
It's a fun gun. Not a carry gun PERIOD. It does well with a can attached.
Lol, you know someone has this gun stuffed in a pocket...
Some of these are lemons just buy a sig322 for the money or a p17 they eat everything and way easier to clean
Not a good gun...constantly jams...always has since new..cleaned mags, different loads, doesn't matter...just a bad design..
One thing I like about this firearm is the indentations above the trigger guard are basically built in gas pedals and with hardly any recoil you can shoot it as fast as possible 🤌
Love the indentations!!!
