I just bought my GX4 ($345) and I can not be any happier with my purchase! Straight out of the box and it grouped flawlessly! It does favor low left but a tight grouping. A lil adjusting and it should be just fine! Very lil snap in the recoil. This is my 3rd Taurus...PT 24/7 G2, G2C, and GX4! I may be a lil biased tho...I am a Taurus so...😀
I bought a .9mm bore laser sight from Amazon and my X4 is pretty much dead on to the top notch ! I also own the Diamond back DB9 which was marketed as the smallest .9mm out there and man is it snappy lol ! But it feels half the weight of my X4 ! The Taurus is a pleasure to shoot comparatively lol !
My Gosh, Taurus came out and challenged all the Mico's and kicked butt! I own many, but from day one saw this was special. Obvious the engineers took a whole lot of time and got real serious about developing a gun that would take on all of them and win. Man they did a great job. It appears they took the best from all of them and put into one gun. And NOW the Toro is out. And not only that but Taurus has a receiver out already cut for optics for $149! Folks there is a new Marshall in Town and his name is Taurus!
Veridian E series has a laser custom fit for the GX4 and is all I need for this carry pistol ! Looks great tight fit and easy to sight in ! I am popping steel plates at 15 yards with no problems ! Works great for me !
Thanks for great informative and entertaining review. Adding you to my regulars, do not know how I have missed your channel. Will also wait for the Optics ready GX4 but am fairly excited. Love my TX-22 and looked like Taurus used the same design language with this. Has great ergos and I shoot it very well. Thought they screwed up with the G3 when they kept old G2/Millennium design. Current carry is a Hellcat, and I love it. (Replaced 1st gen crappy trigger with a much better Apex.)
Taurus is about to be the Kia of the gun world. Stinger and Telluride are great buys. This pistol seems to be one too. Not letting go of my P365 W RDS though.
A comparison to the mossberg mc pistols might be interesting. Price vs value and performance. I like the fact that Taurus used extra long rails for the slide to ride on.
Only drawback between the 2 that I found Jim is that the mags are not interchangeable between the larger and smaller versions on the Taurus but they are on the MB pistols ! The MC2C and the MC2SC !
I just bought the gx4 pretty darn nice gun for the money. My only complaint is when I have it holstered in the 4 o’clock and sit down the the holster pushes the clip release and pops the clip out.
Taurus is a great company making great reliable quality guns and are correctly priced and so innovative, unlike glock afraid of changes so afraid to make mistakes
@@TiberiousGib 'Got it - I agree. I have the G3c and love it so when they released the GX4 I felt like, hmmm should I get it to? So. . .not the case for now - cheers and thanks for the reply
I not comments to knot Taurus 9mm's. But being a 380 ACP person, Taurus has a no compete clause with Smith & Wesson M&P Bodyguard 380 ACP.. Brokered by Beretta USA. So I picked up a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus 15+1, Walther PPK clone with a "Frame Lock". I them Pick up A Bersa Thunder 9 ultra compact 13+1 So I shoot a friends Springfield Armory XDE-9 9mm, with 1 9rd mag & 1 8rd mag. But if your looking for a budget 9mm, the Kel-Tec P10 & a trigger spring kit from M-Carbo.
Awesome review! This comes out after I just got a Hellcat. Lol. First thing I need for it, is an apex trigger for sure. I run wml on my pistols. No accessory rail is a bummner for me. Still looks like a solid lil gun. I have Taurus’ 1911 and TX22. Both great guns!
I carry a Walther PPQ SC which probably has the best trigger out there on a micro 9. This gun however has an excellent trigger and frankly after shooting the GX4 - I can’t see anyone in the market that can beat this gun feature wise for the price. One helluva gun from Taurus….might have to sneak one into the safe………
I don’t have access to a G3c or a g2c, biggest difference is going to be the thickness. The G2c is similar to the Glock 26 thickness while the GX4 is similar to the Glock 43x thickness.
Great review Tiberious G. I am curious, at what point subscriber-wise did vendors start to reach out to you? Or did you make first contact? Thanks for any info T.
Ok I can answer some questions he couldn’t because I have this firearm they do make +2 mags and yes they are Glock sights your welcome and it is a great conceal carry gun shoots great
I'll wait for the GX4 T.O.R.O. They probably did this by design, they sell as many as they can with out the T.O.R.O. system then get the same people to by with it.
There is already a 13 round mag with grip extension available. Extensions I think are also being offered for the standard 11 round mags. Hopefully Taurus did not copy the P365 mag like Springfield did or SIG might file another lawsuit. If they made a manual safety version then I might consider the GX4 sometime down the road given the lowest price point of any micro 9. But I don't need it since I already have a micro 9 so probably not going to get one. Those longer rails do make a difference in felt recoil just like the P365 I agree.
Great review. Looks like a beefed up Taurus Spectrum which is a good pistol as well, but in .380 ACP. This one looks like a winner. The sights are Glock compatible.🎩☯️♠️
Man, all these companies coming out with these micros...I already have the p365, the hellcat, and the 43X. Not sure I need another. S&W, Ruger and Tauris are a little to late to the game.
You probably don’t need another .... but the S&W is a bit cheaper and higher capacity and a better trigger so I’m choosing between the S&W Plus and this GX4.
definitely a ton of these reviews dropping today. As far as this gun, meh. I have a G2 millenium so Im not a hater. But this gun doenst do it for me. Its just a hair worse than the P365 in a bunch of categories. No extension on mag, barrel shorter, a little bigger in most areas. No night sites, etc. It is less expensive. No rail. But you do get 1 more round. But coming to the market this late with your gun and having a chance to see what everyone else has I would expect something new or better. Its a nice value gun.
I'll also wait when it has a better version with manual safety, rail, optics ready, and 13 round mag extension. And since its very new, just waiting on word in terms of reliabity and how it handles firing HP rounds.
Yeah, late to market...now that everyone's bought all they want and guns just ain't selling anymore, right? :-) I got a feeling if you put this in a display at $350 or less, with comparable P365s and Hellcats going for $150-200 more, this should sell just fine.
It looks like the finish durability is not the best. Already shows signs inside the slide. But the most strange is the barrel. Is that from using or just a not a great finish? ruclips.net/video/wU6UnV8HjHM/видео.html Now taking a better look it can be powder residue.
I was liking this video until you started talking about it being better than everything except the shield plus. Pretty sure that's the free gun talking. Lol
1. It’s not a free gun, just a loaner. 2. I was talking about the trigger, I like the trigger on the GX4 better than the Hellcat, G43x and Ruger Max triggers. 3. Overall the P365 is still the best micro 9mm in my opinion. Second would be the Shield Plus and third the G43x in MOs.
@@TiberiousGib ahhh. Well it seemed like you was talking about the guns in general. With that in mind I agree. Although I'm currently at the 43x being the best but that contingent on having the s15 mags/ mag release and boogeyman customs flat trigger. I don't do much stock reviews. Lol
I don't see a point in this pistol unless you can get it for actual msrp....it has no extended magazines, no optics cut, and so many other proven micros out there that are better!
You lost me right away at saying this offering from Taurus beats the Sig 365, Hellcat, and Glock 43x?? To state the only one that beats it is the Shield? I've seen several of these reviews and I've really yet to see one where it doesn't come from the perspective of a "fanboy". There are some serious cons with the Taurus GX4. Not optic ready, no rail, you need a tool for breakdown!!, etc. This is a great offering from Taurus for the price. Add in the price of night sights, and optic ready slide competitors have already and the price advantage begins to wane. Not to mention the lack of a standard rail forcing purchase of proprietary accessories and needing to carry a tool just to break it down!! To simply "dis" the competition destroys all credibility of the review.
Sorry my friend you need to listen closer....in the middle of the review I said the Taurus has a better trigger than the Glock, Hellcat and Ruger. At the end of the video I said the P365 is my favorite micro 9mm, 2ndnis the Shield Plus, third is the G43x MOS AND 4th is the Taurus.

Taurus could murder the competition with a full-sized, optics-ready version of this.
Yup!
If that happens man that would be GREAT!! Right now that pistol with 11rd would be too small for my hands
Ah... yes. I can totally see that!
They have a 13 round mag available through taurus
Everyone and their moms are talking about this new GX4. I am also now seeing an increase in sig 365 videos. I think trying to counter the wave.
I'm so glad that Taurus has finally made a pistol without the safety switch
Me too!!!
I just bought my GX4 ($345) and I can not be any happier with my purchase! Straight out of the box and it grouped flawlessly! It does favor low left but a tight grouping.

Already bought mine and loving iy so far cant wait for aftermarket sights
Awesome 👏
Their website shows a 13rd mag and a pinky extension for the 11rd mag
Looks like they released those accessories after I did the review but thank you or
Letting me know.
Just picked mine up. Can’t wait to put it through the paces. Great content as well. Thanks.
Thanks 🙏
Thanks for great informative and entertaining review.

I’ve only been reviews for a little over a year, easy to miss ha
Good call on the Apex Trigger!
Added extensions to the factory mags and added two more extended ones from Taurus.
Excellent 🙌

Agreed and agreed!

First time watching one of your reviews. Very good!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for another great review!
I plan to buy the Shield Plus to replace my original Shield 1.0.
Great choice!
Please do a review of the Mossberg MC2C and the Arex Delta M Gen 2. Love the channel and reviews
Thank you, I’ll see if I can get my hands on them
Good review. You should have more subscribers.
I’m working on that 🙌
I just bought the gx4 pretty darn nice gun for the money. My only complaint is when I have it holstered in the 4 o’clock and sit down the the holster pushes the clip release and pops the clip out.
That’s not good!
When I get mine in a week or so i will see if I can design a baseplate extension that can be 3d printed. Doesnt seem to be too hard
Let me know 🙌
@@TiberiousGib will do!
Would be great to see an installation of night sights video for the GX4.
I had to give it back to Taurus 🤨
Taurus is a great company making great reliable quality guns and are correctly priced and so innovative, unlike glock afraid of changes so afraid to make mistakes
That’s a fair statement
Need more Shield Plus. Especially a comparison between that and the XL which I'm trying to decide on myself.
I’ll see what I can do
Excellent vid my dude. Subbed.
Appreciate that!
Great review! ✌️
Thank you again 🙏 Jordan > Lebron 😂
Nice review.
Thanks 🙏
Good review man!
Thanks 🙏
Great video
Thanks 🙏
Excellent video - can you do a video comparing the GX4 against the G3c?
I don’t have either pistol, I had to send them back to Taurus. The GX4 is much slimmer but you might shoot the G3c better because it bigger.
@@TiberiousGib 'Got it - I agree. I have the G3c and love it so when they released the GX4 I felt like, hmmm should I get it to? So. . .not the case for now - cheers and thanks for the reply
This hasn't cme to my country yet, hope to see them soon, very interested in getting one.
What country?
Great job Ti
Is was a great perspective

My GX4 hasn't been shot much yet. If it continues to be reliable it'll be alright.
Fair enough 🙌
This thing looks legit 👌
Lots of value for sure
What?? thats cool man, I want one now, miss my G2C very nice improvement that I see...
Taurus is definitely making huge improvements with every new pistol they come out with
Awesome review! This comes out after I just got a Hellcat. Lol. First thing I need for it, is an apex trigger for sure. I run wml on my pistols. No accessory rail is a bummner for me. Still looks like a solid lil gun. I have Taurus’ 1911 and TX22. Both great guns!

Best value for a sub compact pistol
Micro compact review please. 365, hellcat, shield plus, max nine, etc.
I’m trying to get my hands on a Ruger to mark that happens
The trigger pull on my brand new GX4 is the stiffest trigger I’ve ever had. Still trying to get used to that.
Wonder if something is wrong with it?
@@TiberiousGib I’m gonna get it tested for the trigger pull weight next time I go to the range.
please, compare with g2c.
I don’t have access to a G3c or a g2c, biggest difference is going to be the thickness. The G2c is similar to the Glock 26 thickness while the GX4 is similar to the Glock 43x thickness.
great review now i "need" two of them and several magazines ;-)
Hahaha yes you do
Yours is the 20th review of the GX4 I've seen in the last few hours.....; Taurus clearly wasted no effort in getting review samples out there!
Hahaha I figured they would get a ton of them out for reviews.
@@TiberiousGib I've not seen this many reviews since the releases of the Walther PDP or S&W Shield Plus!
Great pistol. You save money because customer service is not included in Taurus's overhead tho
🤣🤣🤣 I’ve heard that before
Taurus has come long. Ever since they moved to Georgia. Can wait to see 👀you clean this 🔫 pistol.
Take care
You are absolutely correct!
Come...long
That is a sweet gun.
Indeed it is
Great review Tiberious G. I am curious, at what point subscriber-wise did vendors start to reach out to you? Or did you make first contact? Thanks for any info T.
i reach out to companies all the time, most of them ignore my emails hahaha I started the relationship with Taurus through email originally.
@@TiberiousGib thanks for the insight. I’m going to have to start have to start pushing myself to do the same. Take care
When will the gun be out? Sorry if i missed that
Next month, think I forgot to say it
Very nice bro!!
Thank you my friend 🤙
Not sure if someone asked this already but where can I buy that t-shirt from?
It’s from Shall not comply, link should be in the description of the video
what kind of bullets does it use
9mm rounds 👍
Ok I can answer some questions he couldn’t because I have this firearm they do make +2 mags and yes they are Glock sights your welcome and it is a great conceal carry gun shoots great
When I did the review they did have the +2 but they do now 🙌
Is this just the next iteration of the g2c/g3c series?
Nope, it’s more of slim micro pistol. Think more p365 / Hellcat
I'll wait for the GX4 T.O.R.O. They probably did this by design, they sell as many as they can with out the T.O.R.O. system then get the same people to by with it.
Taking a page from Glock
Very nice
Thanks 🙏
Compare it with the glock 43x
I was thinking that
There is already a 13 round mag with grip extension available. Extensions I think are also being offered for the standard 11 round mags.

I will look into the mag extension, thanks
Maybe taurus will put some rail and thumb safety
I hope so on the rail but I’m
Not a big fan of safeties on striker fired guns
Great review. Looks like a beefed up Taurus Spectrum which is a good pistol as well, but in .380 ACP. This one looks like a winner. The sights are Glock compatible.🎩☯️♠️
Thanks for watching
I think it’s be good to see a torture test. Putting 10,000 rounds through it like they did on the hellcat.
That would be very interesting!
And expensive
Cool gun, buti I prefer my awesome optics ready flat dark earth Hellcat anyday.
Need an optic! ALWAYS
Man, all these companies coming out with these micros...I already have the p365, the hellcat, and the 43X. Not sure I need another. S&W, Ruger and Tauris are a little to late to the game.

@@chaburchak I have no doubt it will sell just fine. Like I said, it doesnt do it for ME.
I wouldn’t rate it higher than a G43x.. difference in opinion is all.
Absolutely, the G43x in MOS is one of my favorite Glocks
Babish has a gun channel??? (I kid but can't be the only one to think it, lol)
I actually had to look that one up hahaha

I was shooting really cheap ammo but I think it’s the finish.
Every video I've watched on this gun has slide wear all over it lol I pray they make a stainless model.
Imagine the frenzy if this was cut for an optic. Missed the "cut" by not including.
I bet you they will put out an optic cut version in 3-6 months

You can't beat a taurus 🐂 when it comes to any gun
Any gun? How about a belt
Fed Machine gun 😬
I don't see a point in this pistol unless you can get it for actual msrp....it has no extended magazines, no optics cut, and so many other proven micros out there that are better!
I’m going to assume it will be available for below the MSRP....$340ish?
My dislikes…take down screw…no optics ready…non-adjustable sights.
Agreed, can’t be to harsh for the price and I think Taurus will make an optics ready version soon???
Maybe if it had a manual safety.
Good chance Taurus will come out with a version with the manual safety
