I sure appreciate how honest you seem to be. Getting harder to find nowadays!
Thank you so much for that.
I was lucky to find one at bass pro 2 days ago it fell behind a shelf they said it’s been out of stock for 2 months plus crazy!! Paid 280$ for my tx22
I'll agree with you that Taurus beat Glock to the party. I'm also so partial to my TX22 that the G44 has some *serious* shoes to fill.
You might look into the Galloway +3 mag extensions. I let another channel borrow my TX22 for a video and they were all about the combo.
@timmybmn I seriously want to shoot them side by side.
Purchased two of the +3 and works great
@@richardmeche2786 Awesomeness. Keep in mind that you might give the mag spring about an inch of stretch in another thousand rounds or so. The extensions are pure magic outside of that.
Yeah Glock isn't very innovative these days. I mean I respect what they did back in the day but in the last two decades they have been content to follow. I will likely buy a 44 at some point to compare side x side but it has an uphill battle to win me over.
if you have a pistol that shoots where you aim and doesn't often malfunction, what the hell difference does the brand make?
Ain’t that the truth brother
Glock catching up..truer words never spoken
Thanks. That's the way I see it. Since the turn of the century they are always following and not leading. I say that as a user of their products but facts are facts.
I carry OWB also because the older that I get, the more of ME there is in my waist band already :)
EXACTLY! I wish I'd have said it like that!
...our muscles got bigger....
Thanks for another good visit with you at your range. Great shooting Buff!
Buffalo, you possess some mad marksmanship skills!
Enjoy your videos!
Thanks for that! I am glad you enjoy them!
Thank you - follow ups on issues and accessories are valued highly!
I didn't get notified of this video till I was watching it. But I enjoyed it so much I might watch it again from the notification. Great video Buffalo Thank you!
Awesome Larry, you know I appreciate every view I can get! ;)
I always appreciate your honest and thoughtful videos
Love my tx22. Just got more magazines today and next trip to range will be soon
Richard Meche sounds great!
Thank you!
Just picked my taurus up yesterday!! Very happy!!
Great job I’ve subscribed better than other 22 channels no ads on shirts and great info about Taurus I bought 2 they have really set the bar high as u have stated sr22 is great one too
Just recently came across your channel and I’m really enjoying your reviews. Great job!
Gun snobs are really missing out on present day Taurus pistols. I think they're the best company going right now, as far as bang for your buck. I understand how hard it is to get a sour taste out of your mouth with a gun company. I'm that way with Ruger right now. I've been horribly burned on the last 2 new Rugers that I've bought. They're a joke, to be honest. It's not just me having problems with them lately... Seems like every time Hickok goes to do a video with a new Ruger, it's nothing but problems, and malfunctions. Whether it's the Ruger 9mm PC Carbine(at least one malfunction per mag), or the Ruger 556(he said that it was so unreliable that he couldn't even do the video with it), it seems someone at Ruger has dropped the ball. They better get it together. They won't make it long on "past" reputation. Especially with companies like Taurus stepping up their game these days.
....own "several" TX22s...they are super...don't buy one.....get several ;) Man, they are F U N .....
@@rickthompson1422 I got one 10 days ago and got to know it twice already, I also ordered two extra mags that are yet to ship...... I want to get another one just for the 2 mags..... no green splatter anywhere......
Jamie Sloan I also got burned on my last Ruger. Total lemon. I sent it back to them and they literally put it back in a box and send it right back to me in the same condition. Said they cannot duplicate the problem. It still won’t even make it through a magazine. I’ve tried every reputable ammunition out there from Remington,Winchester and federal. I’m done with it I will never trust it again it’s a paperweight
I have a Walther PPQ 9. It’s awesome, so I bought a PPQ 22 to use as a cheap trainer. It’s complete crap out of the box. I cleaned it and took it to the range where I tried five different brands of ammo and it choked on everything. I couldn’t get three consecutive shots off without a malfunction, even with Mini Mags. I cleaned it again, took it back to the range with a couple different rounds and same thing. Contacted Walther and to their credit they arranged for a quick return, but after a month, no gun and no real explanation but that they need to replace the barrel but have none in stock. When I asked for an explanation of the defect and an update they basically sent me a copy of their original assessment. I guess I’ll have it sometime this decade. In the meantime I bought a TX22 so hoping it’s as reliable as the reviews all claim.
Update: The TX is a great gun. It’s accurate and eats up everything with no issues, so far. I added a fiber optic front sight which was the only upgrade it needed.
Finally got the PPQ22 back after 3 months and it’s improved but still picky. It likes Federal copper plated (not Auto Match) bulk ammo.
Bluegrass and bullets, made my morning. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I bought the front sight you have. I should get in a week or so. I think I paid 20.00, I think I got free shipping. I will have to look back and find out. Free shipping has a nice ring to it. At least for me. I am careful. I have been screwed by a 20.00 item and 7.50 shipping. If I look around, it can help. This is similar to the HI VIZ sights. I like them as I usually shoot during the day. These really light up nice. Tridium, well I do not find it super great. They need to absorb light. That does not help at night for me. Thank you-great video-God bless.
I put 550 rounds through mine in the last 2 days, running drills on my range. I absolutely love mine!!! Excellent training pistol, if you love to shoot, but can't afford to run 9mm all of the time. My sights haven't caused me any problems at all. I guess I was lucky. Plus, it runs like a dream, with any kind of "bulk" ammo. I've had mine since they first came out. I can't say how many rounds I've put through it. I stopped counting after 10,000. lol It's been near perfection, with reliability. I'll have maybe one, or two per range session. That's "near perfection" with bulk 22 ammo. My trigger breaks just under 4lbs. It's gotten better with age. Anyway.... I could talk about this pistol for hours. I'll stop now. lol
I've heard a lot of testimonials just like this one Jamie. That tells me that Taurus got this pistol right. I was never a big fan of Taurus but they have opened my eyes a bit the last couple of years. I think I will try one of their revolvers next as I have never owned one of theirs.
I can only speak from my personal experience with them, in the last 3-4 years. Zero problems.
Lots of reports of bad barrels with this gun. Apparently you got a good one.
Same Same, only I have not put that many rounds through it.
I am trying though!
Hard to find ammo these corondays..step up with the 'thunder' production, Remington?!
@@sidneyschatz5233 I own two. My experience has been perfect with both. I've got ten thousand thru the first TX and about a thousand thru my newest one.
Thanks Buffalo! I notice that the same sight aslo fits the PT111 G2, G2C, G2S and other Taurus handguns. Great info.
You're very welcome Gary. I never noticed that about the other models but I see it now...
@@buffalosoutdoors A Taurus TX22 is "on my list" for this year, if I don't get distracted by random acts of falling in love with other guns, (Or BCA uppers) or deals "I can't miss", and I would add one of these sights to it. But when I checked out your link, I saw that it fits the PT111 G2, which I already have, and I ordered one! Thanks!
Dude, you are obviously a great marksman and I love your videos. Thanks!!,
Howdy Buffalo
Because of you I just purchased The TX22 first 100 rounds went almost flawlessly but did have a few failure to feed but turned out to be my fault. Got it all squared away and so far so good. Thanks for your Awesome channel both of them keep up the good work.
Seems like that there is only a few channels that when they demonstrate accuracy they do it past 15 yards with a handgun. Yours is one of them, Paying attention to the sights is the most important thing in handgun shooting. -Dave
Thanks man. You're absolutely right about the sight!
Timmy I find that highly annoying. I try to always angle the camera to where the target is in the frame with me. It's not that hard to do. When I see the guys with the camera on them and not showing the target at all they automatically lose a little street cred.
Dang nice shootin Buffalo, as usual....I really need one of them TX22’s in my life.
Thanks! I can't speak for all of them as I only have the one sample but it's been a really good pistol!
Fine shooting, sir. Like you, my old eyes have trouble with low quality front sights anymore and $25 for fiber optics is the way to go. Now if there was an automatic gun cleaner for rimfire, I'd be set.
Wouldn't that be nice! ;)
OH BoY ! I just cant wait for the comparison showdown video. Sig vs. Ruger vs. Glock vs. Taurus. Who will be most accurate, most reliable, best features etc. I'm getting all giddy just thinking about it.
It's gonna be an interesting year for the .22 pistol market!
Tandemkross has a FO sight for the TX22, also.
Nice looking setup. The chickens must have thought you had the feed bag with you. :))
I guess they did! They sneaked up on me!
Thanks for bringing us along
You're very welcome!
Nice shooting! The malfunction most likely was the fault of the ammo. I don't think that any 22 lr ammo is perfect. Thanks
Thanks! I agree, bulk .22lr can isn't the most reliable. This was the first time I shot the truncated cone style bullets through this pistol too.
HA!
Thank you Buffalo.
You're very welcome!
I think malfunctions are gonna happen with pretty much any 22 ! 😊
You just had to go and remind me that I've not been out shooting for a while now didn't you !
Well guess I better git it done !
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
I think you are correct! ;) I am actually glad it malfunctioned on camera. I like to show that sort of thing when I get the chance. Have fun at the range!
Damn, You are an excellent shooter Sir.
Thank you!
Fun factoid, tx 22 AND mag fit in my TREX Sidecar P220 holster, now I don't recommend any one carry a .22 but damn if that wouldn't be my choice , 40 rnds of .22 AIWB.
i just got one last week. put probably around 500 rounds through it already. probably less than 10 malfunctions, which can be attributable to 22 being 22. i got a glock, but i wanted something i can shoot for cheap. and this is a great investment.
After watching this video, I am putting a TX22 on my to buy list. Now, if I could only shoot it as well as Buffalo, I would be mighty pleased with myself..
New Sub.
Lakeline also sells a red dot mount that fits the Taurus tx-22. It replaced the rear sight with a little file work. Mounted and ADE Red Green Dot from amazon. It works great. Bought mag extensions and a holster from Galloway Precision. Mag extensions work great holster is garbage with their fabric clip. I like your holster but no room cut out for a Red Dot. Love the TX 22.
Looks like a great little 22. Nice shooting too!!
Thanks!
Bought a 44, don't love it.
Bought a tx22 today, it feels a lot more like the 19x than the g44 does
Just a FYI on the holster: ordered this holster shortly after this video came out. Great quality holster I must say. Just recently I have drilled two holes to install two, pull the dot belt loops and removed the previous belt clip to make a very nice IWB holster for this firearm
Heads Up... the Lakeline LLC steel buffer assembly feels great on this pistol too! I was amazed that the little bit of weight it added made that big of a difference for me. As for the sight... my old eyes like the green color better.
8:32 Oh look, a semi full auto pistol. Or is Buffalo's Outdoors channeling his inner Miculek? 😂
HAHA~ I sure have fun trying!
Nice & short and to the point. Awesome shooting as always. Be safe & see you next time.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hey Buffalo. I saw this video and got my own TX22. I enjoy the firearm. I noticed that bulk hollow points from Herter’s misfeed a lot on this gun. CCI mini-mag solids feed perfectly. I enjoyed the video. Nice jacket, by the way.
Best gun channel on RUclips!!!!
I love my tx22 I was so impressed with it and I went out and bought the Taurus G3 may do a review on it tomorrow and by the way that was some impressive shooting
The G3 is garbage!
Thanks BO. Great job. Good info. Nice shootin.
Chasing or choking chickens is generally a young man's sport. *:D-)*
Kinda funny you should mention switching to outside as you get older. Now that I pretty much carry a compact 9mm all the time I've gone the other way. I've found it more comfortable to carry IWB with a decent leather holster. Good shooting of course, always fun to watch. Take it easy man. *:)*
EDIT: Couldn't help the first part
LMAO! Man I wish I'd have said I'm going to choke these chickens....that would have been hilarious!
Seems like a quality gun and you certainly do shoot it well, now you got a me wanting one
I can't speak for all of them but this one has been very reliable and shoots straight. ;)
Well get one brother..! I did, its bad ass..!
Wow you are a Great shot!!
Thank you!
Still getting caught up on your videos, great as usual. I have a TX 22 and love it, big improvement was a lakeline recoil spring.
Yep, some good fun out there and nice shooting....Good stuff....
Thanks!
Good stuff buffalo. I have the same front sight on my g2c. I’m using the orange. I also blacked out my factory rear site By putting an oil based flat black paint in the dots.
Wow I can really hear when you hit the plate. That's better than you can tell when 22 Plinkster shoots. Hope you become just as successful as him!
Buffalo is the man... !!!!
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words!
Buffalo is the neighbor/friend/cousin/brother/uncle...I wish I had.
That right there is the best compliment a man can get! Thanks buddy!
I put the Green Fiber optic sight from Taurus on mine and its very good cheap upgrade. $19.00
Nice video. I dont have a 22 pistol like this one. I have the single action and a Browning semiauto but nothing like this. Might give that a try if its priced good. Thanks Buffalo
Thanks! I really like those Brownings! They are very accurate.
Got me a TX22. First impression? Absolutely love it! I need a holster for it though!
I got a holster from BigR that was for a Walther PPK 380, it took a few weeks to settle in completely, but it works great for open carry. And CC as well. It just lacks a strap to hold it a little more secure.
I have around 2000 rounds (purchased gun two months ago) through my TX 22 now, and it only fails due to ammo..and I pretty much only shoot cheap bulk ammo.
Caveat- You need to do a barrel cleaning about each 350-450 rounds minimum. Accuracy falls beyond this many rounds in my experience.
I am thinking the fiber optic upgrade is a good idea, as my eyes are not what they used to be..
Have fun with yours!
Papa Mac I bought one of them cheap holsters for now. It works. Decent retention. But I’m still looking for a good one considering this will not be a carry piece. I agree. After my first shots, which was about 250rnds, I noticed it gets quite dirty and grimy in there. So, I did notice how more maintenance will be needed. Or more often I should say. I noticed that some ammo is just bad. I havent had any issues with it either other than one failure to feed. I think The round wast seated correctly which caused the issue. Other than that, it eats up anything I feed it. And no, it wont cycle the CCI quiet subsonic rounds as many other videos have shows us. I Have a few boxes but its useless for this handgun. In conclusion. I absolutely love it! I picked up about 2000 rnds today to really shoot it and break it in! I plan to do a review soon. I’m very happy I went this this and not the G44. The trigger on the TX tho! Amazing!...
Nice shooting Buffalo and a nice Holster to.Taurus are priced lower but are very nice guns.Buffalo, keep us here in VA in your thoughts as we fight to keep are Second Amendment Rights!Thanks.
Been thinking of you guys often! I am not as totally aloof as I may seem in my videos. I just don't know how to approach the political topics without getting worked up.
I cant find the link in the description for the holster?
I like my S&W M&P 22C! Great little gun! I wouldn't mind having the Taurus!
Nice upgrade, great shooting.
Thank you!
Nice video👍 those are sweet pistols and you hit the nail on the head by saying they set the bar high.
Thanks! I am not even a big Taurus fan but after owning this one I am thinking of trying more of there product. I have never owned one of their revolvers. I may go that route next.
Ya i was the same way but I have a couple and some friends who have a few and I think they have came along way and are really bringing some heat to other manufacturers.
Man that was some nice shooting there Buffalo especially at that longer distance.....What was that 50/75 yards on a what 10" plate......I got a FDE one coming as soon as my LGS gets one in.
If you have a CZ P07 the TX22 will fit in that holster as well.
Thanks for that.
Somehow, the link for the holster you said would be in the description isn't there.
You a bad boy with them pistols!
Thanks!
If that were a Sig Mosquito, you’d have to clear the FTF FTE every 3-4 rounds.
The Stealth Operator Holster fits mine like a glove for a cheaper option!
Cool beans! I ain't very stealthy nor am I an operator....will it still work for me?
@@buffalosoutdoors yeah the stealth operator has fit every pistol I've crammed in it! You ain't got to be a ninja to use one and they are like $20 at Academy 😂👍🇺🇸
Thus far my favorite 22 pistol is the M&P 22
Two of my faves as well! I need to do a comparison of the two as they are very different yet very alike...
New Sub Buffalo. Thought I was watchin Hickok 45. Pick up my TX 22 on 2-11.
I wish my ar500 targets rang as good as yours. 80 percent are thuds instead of rings. Happy shootin.
Thanks for the update and information
God Bless
You're very welcome, thank you for stopping in!
I had to file the Lakeline front sight on my G2C. For the money, it should not have been that way. I am ordering the guide rod for my TX22 right now.
Wow my area doesn't have viper anymore, I love that stuff. Works like a hollow point on carp heads.
I bought several cases a few years back on a clearance sale. I like them pretty good. Thanks for tuning in!
Good video 👍. I would bet that the plastic front sight did not have enough cooling time in the mold. Do you have any problems with coyote getting the chickens
I bet you're right about the sight. We used to have a hard time with coyotes getting the chickens and lambs but ever since we got our Akbash/Pyreneese mix that lives with the sheep we haven't lost any more animals.
I love glock. I also have the TX22 and its a good little gun. It has an awesome stock trigger.
Thanks for the video
Nice holster
Thanks Trees!
My one request for Taurus: offer a 5" barrel version. Increase velocity a bit, sight radius a bit, accuracy a bit. Make one a little more of a duty gun, rather than compact-practice.
That would be a sweet set up!
And they have done it now. Check it out if you haven't already.
I GET PAID TOM. CANT WAIT JUST GOTTA HOPE MY GUN STORE STILL HAS LEAST ONE IN!!!!!!!
Tandemkross has some nice assessories for th tx22 including 5 round mag extensions that work flawlessly.
Please note that the Glock-23 has the same frame as the G-19 ... so..... if you have the 23, the 44 will feel the same - and your custom holsters (I recommend StealthGear USA) will fit just fine.
Funny you mention the 23, that was the first Glock I ever owned.
@@buffalosoutdoors The Glock-32 is another one with the same frame
Sweet shooting on a fun looking little pistol
Thanks!
Wow that looks fun....ka ding..,
Thanks BB!
All the best BuffaloMan in the new Year.Chickens - killed me to the point of laughing - they have to be Buffalo`s chickens and they have some nuts.Mad Kentucky Chickens,who don`t give dime, cause they know they are protected by You.Love the video as always! - this .22 - unreal,as shootings of Yours.All the best.
Glad you got a kick out of the chickens. They sneaked right in on me...lol
Great Shooting & Fine Review also TY
Cool!! Cousin Eddie started a gun channel 👍
Enjoyed the review Thanks for sharing
Great CONTROL,. Great vide,.
Excellent video and love the banjo. Glock is gonna have a hard time topping this TX22. Before this gun came I like alot had my doubts about a Taurus 22 pistol being this good. A buddy at work has ran close to 3500 rounds thru his in a short time. Asked him if he is trying to wear it out and he just said its just too fun to shoot. I have to get one but dang I want alot of guns. I have a problem lol.
LOL! I feel you! I have that issue as well! I have spent the last few days trying to decide on a good precision .22lr rifle. I've got it narrowed down to half a dozen models but now it gets a lot harder!
I got home from work early and this popped up. I clicked as soon as I saw it and I am still not first in the comment section :-(
Yes, me too, see above>
But you were oh so close! LOL Thanks buddy!
Enjoyed the video! For sure. Did you notice any change in point of impact with the new front sight?
Heard the Glock 22 cal. is junk, unless you run the high end ammo but there is all kinds of issues with the magazine loading properly and all kinds of other things.
What is the front sight? you spoke to quickly for me to catch it. I would like to change mine also.
Sweet shooter 👍
Thanks!
Glock basically said they couldn't insure Glock style reliability with more than a ten round capacity. Too bad. I love Glock, but I'll stick with my TX22 because I love the 16 round mags.
I feel the same. It's a shame they can't figure it out. I will most likely still buy the Glock at some point just because I have so many and do carry a 19 pretty regular. Maybe after I shoot one I will understand a little more about why they did it the way they did.
I was gifted the lakeline llc sights for mine for Christmas but it was front and rear (we didn’t know the ones we got were 6ocklock hold sights and I left a review on their site about them and told them they are just about useless past 10 feet. They pick and choose which reviews they have on their site. I tried to get them to exchange only the rear sight for the 12 o’clock or the “combat” hold but they didn’t want anything to do with it. I don’t think they are an honest company because of the fact they deleted my review of it and they also are not willing to help you if even all you wanna do is exchange a rear sight. They started to ignore me and all I asked was to have it exchanged. I still have the front sight on but I removed the rear sight because you cannot shoot at distance at all. They looked good but the function was worthless.
Thank you.. I have never had any contact with Lakeline other than placing my order online. They were prompt with the shipping and the sight worked as advertised so that's all I have really have to go on.
Buffalo's Outdoors like I said the front sights works fine but the rear is useless at any distance
Awesome review brother! Great idea with the fiber optic sight. I’d swear you have actual eagle eyes if I had to guess LOL I am *so* sorry about the whole Instagram and my technologically illiterate self. I have some pictures that I’d like to post up myself 🤯
No worries. I hardly get the chance to use instagram anyway. I use it when I can but it's not very often!
Thank you for being patient though! Looking forward to your next video! Oh yeah, did things work out between you and your camerawomen? lol
I had (have) the same issue with the front sight. I was able to tighten it. So far, so good. My biggest issue is the gun shoots about 4" high at 7 yards. Did you notice a difference in shot placement, when you changed sights? Thanks
That's some great shootin Buffalo. God Bless.
You are an excellent pistol shot sir. You made it look very easy but it really isn't. I am a big fan of your channel.
Nice shoot'n at 40+! Cease fire, chickens on the range!! lol! I actually like watchn chickens, they make me laugh. I guess Im just easily entertained! lol!
