Thank you for your post. I've had my Taurus G3C for a couple of years. In fact, I'm carrying mine today. There is absolutely nothing I would change about it.
Damn it Terry! You keep making these Taurus G series vs Glock vids and Taurus might raise their prices on us 😂 Lmao once again this is a no brainer for me being the price difference
Love my G3C also love my glock...yes I have both....the G3C feels better in my med sized hand but what i really like is that a 17 round mag from a regular size G3 fits in my G3C perfectly, bought a mag sleeve from bloody wheels for $9 bucks to fill the gap and presto 17 plus 1! Which i think we all would agree that when going to the range the less time we spend filling mags...the more time for shootin!
The G3C found it's way into the perfect ergonomic pistol for me I couldn't find in the 27 or 43x though I love and own both. Mine has been every bit as reliable as my Glocks too
I guess I have become a Taurus fanboy I own some m&ps a sig but just picked up 5 th Taurus yesterday a g3c ,already had the spectrum,the g2 c the g3 and the g2s all great reliable fire arms
I have a G3C and I love it so far. I've put about 300 rounds through it with no issues yet and its what im currently carrying now. I'm not gonna say that I'll never buy a glock, but for now, they're not on my radar, especially for the price when there are so many other options that break down in a similar way for example, the Stoeger STR 9 MC is another gun I own that breaks down in a similar way and is also a great gun to shoot and it feels good in the hand. I got that for $350 with the $50 rebate. Can't beat that for $300.
Glocks are very good guns. There are just so many cheaper options that match them in performance and reliability like you stated. Thank you for watching
Had two issues with my G3c. Had a few light strikes with certain ammo brands solved by replacing with heavier striker spring. Rear sight drifted a bit, blue locktite and a punch got it back aligned. Shoots very nicely.
@slotcarfan the light strikes is odd. I have never had that. The sight is not odd. I had one a long time ago that the site was loose. I did the same thing to solve it
@@TerryBenton Taurus revolvers are pretty damn good too. I have the model 627 tracker in 357 Magnum and after hundreds of rounds I haven't had one issue with it. I carried the Glock 17 for years on the Sheriff's Department and I don't like Glocks at all.

@@allmightydollar6330 hey Einstein nobody's comparing Glock and Taurus. Glocks or just ugly and overpriced. I carried a Glock 17 on the sheriff's department for many years probably before you were soiling your diapers. Like a lot of youngsters you seem like a mouth with legs hahaha
@@allmightydollar6330 wow Glocks bee going bang every time? Does they really? You must bees an expert on Dee's weapons. How many days have you been shooting now? Hahaha hahaha
Glock at one time was capacity king,always had a few more rounds than everyone else. You think they would have been the first one to have FROM THE FACTORY 15 or even 17 rounds ( like Sig Macro) in the 43X. Then it would have made more sense.
I love my Taurus G3c, I’ve shot over 700 rounds and had the first failure to fire, it was the bullet, it’s eaten up everything I put in it!! Mostly 115 and 124 gr fmj bullets, my friends Glock 26 jammed a bunch of times with the same ammo I was using for my Taurus G3c at the range that my Taurus had no problems shooting! Needless to say I bought out the rest of his 500 rounds, so what does that tell you!!
I bought the G2c and i love it. I threw in a Lakeline barrel and it’s able to chew and spit out any ammo type i put in there. Also swapped the trigger.
@getdookied-on8136 I do not understand the barrel swap. The stock barrel does well with any ammo I put in it. I do get charging the trigger. The stock one is a little hard to get use to. How much did those upgrades cost?
@@TerryBenton the stock barrel had a hard time shooting hollows/hydras and i didn’t want to polish the feed ramp. Was around $150 after everything all said and done i got a steel recoil spring too.
This is a very accurate comparison. I own both and I actually prefer the G3C but the big difference is resale value. If you put $500 in a Glock you have $500. If you put $280 into a G3C plus another $100 to upgrade the plastic internals you have a gun that’s worth about $150. Aside from that the G3C is just as good if not better.
I usually do not sell firearms so resale value means nothing to me. I buy them for what I like and works for me. I prefer the taurus also. Thanks for watching
Check out lakeline, Ive put a threaded black nitride barrel in mine as well as stainless steel striker guide and recoil assembly. It only made it better. I had a 700 dollar budget and almost got a glock for 600 but figures I could pay half with the G3c and just put 300 bucks more into the gun and some ammo.
I’ve held at least 5 different hand guns and I can say with my chest that surprisingly the g2c felt the best. It shoots great and is half the price. Idk how anyone could go wrong with it
I have a g3c but Im a trucker and some places don't want me carrying. I need something really small I almost bought a one of those 2 shot derringers by bond arms but decided against it. Any advice on something really small?
TL;DR...I shoot guud with it and all my homies have a G3c. Look, my Sig P365 is my EDC, but just picked up a brand new G3c because of major deal ($236 out the door, but only two mags). 250 rds ran so far and no malfunctions. Doesn't give me tender spots after long sessions. I am in love with this little thing. Chunkier than my P365 and I can't pocket conceal with it like my Sig. Weirdly long trigger pull too, but you quickly get used to it. It is perfectly concealable otherwise. Taurus is trying to make up ever since they moved manufacturing to the States.
@@TerryBenton agreed. I also own a Taurus TX22 which is Guns & Ammo 2019 gun of the year. It is the most reliable .22LR pistol that I have ever owned or tested.
Great presentation You may have missed your calling as a captain on a commercial airliner "We're cruising at 500mph at a height of 32 thousand ft. If you look at the window,, you can see My huge yacht😅"
Having issues with my G3C ... running Super Val reloads 1 × 9mm Luger 115 gr. FMJ "Certified Select" and with a full mag the first round will jam. This happened with all three Taurus mags a few times. I've read others had the same issue with the g3c and it was solved after polishing the load ramp. But as of this time I don't feel comfortable carrying it for self defense. Also considering a Ruger Max 9
You should never Carry any gun that malfunctions amd you are not comfortable with. My guess is it is ammo related but I would definitely tey the feed ramp polish.
@@TerryBenton ... I polished the feed ramp to a mirror... 1000 rounds later and she's running like silk. My only issue is even with loctite the front sight comes loose.
Owing the g2c & g3c for almost a year I’ll keep my Taurus in front line I like Glock however I like many others as well But g3c vs 43x I’m going g3c holds more better grip and u can drop a flat face trigger unit that breaks crazy good
They gone bomb on me in the comments but the Taurus is better 😂 I have both 43x 10 rounds that’s trash g3c 12 +1 smooth recoil 43x snappy I don’t care 🤷🏾♂️ it’s trash 🚮 to me lmaoo but I love Glocks
@@TerryBentonI already did. Now I have both!😂 Got a 15 round mag too which is legal where I live. I like both… the 43x is way more comfortable to carry in my opinion and it’s lighter. The G3c is nice as well though and was my very first firearm. Honestly it’s hard to choose which one to carry as a EDC. Right now I like the Glock better. Even though it’s boring looking… My G3c looks prettier honestly lol.
Right now my daughter is trying to decide on which of these two. I've told her that the lighter 43X will be harder on her arthritic hands and even worse since she recently broke some bones in that hand. I was leaning towards the Ruger Security 380 for those reasons, but she likes the G3c and so we will probably go with one. I'm even considering the 40 S&W - maybe.
The taurus DOSE not have glock style sights on it will taurus sights fit on a glock and will glock sights fit on a taurus yes but the sights on a glock are very different than ones on a taurus I have tires on a chevy that will fit a ford that does not make them chevy style tires
I always laugh when I hear the prices of guns in the US because they are dirt cheap. All handguns are illegal in the UK, you can't even get a license for one. You could get one anyway if you knew the right people (by which I mean the wrong people) but it'll cost you between $3500 and $10,000 equivalent and risk a minimum 5 year jail sentence. I watch these videos to see what I would get, if I could get one. For now I'm happy with a pointy stick, and I don't really need a gun because even criminals don't bother to carry them as a matter of course here. If someone came after you with a gun here it's because you're a rival criminal. It's just not worth the jailtime to bother with them. Still, good to know that if I had a choice I'd probably pick the G3C.
@@TerryBenton You can apply for a shotgun or rifle (.22) license, but you need to demonstrate why you need it and even then you can be rejected for all sorts of reasons, and the final decision is up to the police who take the view that if you want a firearms license then you are the type of person who shouldn't be given a firearms license. They do generally allow farmers to have a shotgun license. You also have to agree to let the police access your property at any time and without notice to allow them to check that it is properly stored and they can also check the rest of the property to make sure you aren' leaving any ammunition around, which essentially means a full search. For 99.999%+ of people, it's not worth applying. You also can't carry them, open or concealed unless you are going to a documented pre-booked appointment to hunt, visit a range or take the gun to a repairer. When you transport it, it must be in a lockbox with the key being transported separately. It's a very different country to the US, where you have bears etc so people don't need guns to defend against wildlife, so criminals can't misuse them, so civilians don't need them to defend against criminals. The vast majority of police don't have guns either. TBH I'd love to have a gun, but not at the cost of everyone else being able to have one too. I'd want to be the only one, because you can't trust other people with your life.
I have both . And the 43x will always be better. My opinion. It’s slimmer than the g3. You can run 15,18, and 20 rd mags in the 43x . It’s way more customizable than the g3 is. And to me shoots better than the g3 . And the fact that 3 brand new g3/g3c mags crapped on me at 200rds , I’ll stick to Glock reliability for edc.
I own the g3c I have also owned a Glock 45 I wanted something more compact for ccw, sold the 45 and got a g30 .45 auto. My opiniop, best ccw. However I like to fluctuate my ccw so I picked up the g3c and my thoughts on it after a couple thousand rounds. It comes out of the box better than a Glock and for the price, Damn. Glock is the Gucci of the gun market people pay for the name alot and Glock knows it. They make a $12 pistol and sell it for $600. However comparing the g43x to the g3c, Glock now makes a gen 5 g43x and it is MOS. Shield Arms makes aftermarket metal magazines that hold 15 rounds flush in the gun. And even 20 round mags that only extend out slightly. And with all the aftermarket parts for Glock. I would choose the g43x in fact I'm thinking of buying one lol. I still love my g3c and it's use will be a range gun and or training gun.
In all the rounds I've put through my g3c have all been brass cheap stuff. No jams or jelly from it definitely wouldn't put it past a reliable ccw. It eats hollow points no issue as well
G3c has a couple people making triggers and barrels fot it. Slide can always be milled for 100 or so and can accept 10,12,15,17 rnd mags or p226 mags. Still cheaper than Glock. Buuut as much I like g3, have 3 of them, Glock has better CS and they are mil proven. G3c is street proven though 😂
I know the G3 alone is similar in dimension to the 19 but the G3x wouldn't compare to the 43x or 19. G3 grip length with a 3.2 inch slide of the g3c. Longer then the 43x in height and shorter than 19 in length.
Ok. If we are being honest, a glock is a "budget gun" also. They are cheap too. There are only a couple of hundreds difference in price. Both are bottom end budget guns that go bang every time.
@TerryBenton any gun under 400 considered budget my guy yeah you can catch used glocks for that price that doesn't mean it budget just means a good quality glock for the low
@TerryBenton BTW Taurus have bad rep muy buddy got a Taurus shit be jamming glocks go bang everytime never had a problem with glocks talking from experience glock haters

I have both . And the 43x will always be better. My opinion. It’s slimmer than the g3. You can run 15,18, and 20 rd mags in the 43x . It’s way more customizable than the g3 is. And to me shoots better than the g3 . And the fact that 3 brand new g3/g3c mags crapped on me at 200rds , I’ll stick to Glock reliability for edc.
Good information. Thanks for sharing
With the G2/3 series 'C' Taurus you can run 15 and 17 rd mags, in addition to standard 12 rd. I carry a 12 rd in in, plus second 15 rd mag.
I own the g3c I have also owned a Glock 45 I wanted something more compact for ccw, sold the 45 and got a g30 .45 auto. My opiniop, best ccw. However I like to fluctuate my ccw so I picked up the g3c and my thoughts on it after a couple thousand rounds. It comes out of the box better than a Glock and for the price, Damn. Glock is the Gucci of the gun market people pay for the name alot and Glock knows it. They make a $12 pistol and sell it for $600. However comparing the g43x to the g3c, Glock now makes a gen 5 g43x and it is MOS. Shield Arms makes aftermarket metal magazines that hold 15 rounds flush in the gun. And even 20 round mags that only extend out slightly. And with all the aftermarket parts for Glock. I would choose the g43x in fact I'm thinking of buying one lol. I still love my g3c and it's use will be a range gun and or training gun.
In all the rounds I've put through my g3c have all been brass cheap stuff. No jams or jelly from it definitely wouldn't put it past a reliable ccw. It eats hollow points no issue as well
Funny thing is I carry the G30s. Slim slide 45acp. 10 rds. Thanks for watching
@@Fastasfffboiii they never malfunction. Great gun
G3c has a couple people making triggers and barrels fot it. Slide can always be milled for 100 or so and can accept 10,12,15,17 rnd mags or p226 mags. Still cheaper than Glock. Buuut as much I like g3, have 3 of them, Glock has better CS and they are mil proven. G3c is street proven though 😂
The Taurus g3x would have been a better comparison to glock 43x.
@THORR-mh9px I am not very familiar with that one. I will look into them. Thank you
@@TerryBenton I have them both/ would like your opinion. Great video!
@@THORR-mh9px I will definitely look into it.
The Taurus g3x is a better comparison to the GLOCK 43x. Not the g3c.
Why is that?
I know the G3 alone is similar in dimension to the 19 but the G3x wouldn't compare to the 43x or 19. G3 grip length with a 3.2 inch slide of the g3c. Longer then the 43x in height and shorter than 19 in length.
100% Taurus.
I agree now
Stop comparing budget guns against heavy weights glocks go bang everytime taurus are guns for first time buyer's go to the range and practice guns
Ok. If we are being honest, a glock is a "budget gun" also. They are cheap too. There are only a couple of hundreds difference in price. Both are bottom end budget guns that go bang every time.
Bad grammar and bad point.
@TerryBenton any gun under 400 considered budget my guy yeah you can catch used glocks for that price that doesn't mean it budget just means a good quality glock for the low
@@allmightydollar6330 ok
@TerryBenton BTW Taurus have bad rep muy buddy got a Taurus shit be jamming glocks go bang everytime never had a problem with glocks talking from experience glock haters
My EDC ... TAURUS G3C 💯‼️
Good deal!!!!
No contest ♉️+ HST x Critical D🩸🐝=🚮 🤣,Smiths are as low as you ever go for reliable budget hollow eaters best out the OG SD9VE🪶👑 and 🛡+TS,but G26/23 the only two glocks you’ll ever need
I do not disagree
