and yes i dont use the safety in this weapon, and no i dont keep a round chambered, but im right handed and i use a crossdraw, wich infact i can draw and rack the slide in the same exact motion, with does not hamper my draw speed at all, actually i draw, rack the side and unload 2 rounds in under2.8 seconds. so for me........is not inversely applied reasoning.
I appologise to whoevers thread this is for this.........crap. my intent was to comment and inform on this weapon. but once again someone has hijacked it for their own personal agenda. again i am sorry for this.

there was nothing to clerify or cite grape. i said it flat you. the safety malfunctions. it does not work, it is dangerous if you do not know of it. i also cited how to have it repaired.jay75009 wrote:That's right, you don't like to be asked to clarify things or cite - you call that harassment and then attempt to insult.Grapeshot wrote:lol theres no negligence...........i don't use a safety on any of my carry guns, they all have them. but i personally dont use them, just another button to slow me down in a SHTF situation.Well it may be all over the web, but two large FFLs I spoke to said they have never seen one that would do that; nevertheless, what shocks me is that anyone with knowledge that their gun was malfunctioning would state "I carry my 745C daily ............ no real problems other than the safety."
You admit to carrying a gun with a malfunctioning safety on a public forum. Wow - evidence of negligence doesn't get much better than that! Should you have a SHTF moment, a good prosecutor would have you for dinner.
Agree that anyone, yourself included, that has a malfunctioning gun should have it fixed. Taurus has a superb life of the gun warranty - get it fixed yesterday.

Yata hey
#2 taurus is sending me a new safety latch to install myself.
#3 i dont keep a round in the chamber anymore. because of this so there is no issue.
.
i posted to let others know about this very dangerous issue, if your aware of it, you can avoid it, dont harass me because i attempted to help people grape. careful.........your charachter is showing.
The 745C is the little brother to the PT 24/7 - the safety on both models block the striker as well as the trigger, so there may be other issues with one that responds as you describe. Quite surprised that Tauras didn't want you to send it back for a full check up and repair.
You may chose to carry sans the safety engaged for the sake of speed - that's your choice, not one that many would recommend though. Then you don't keep one in the pipe for safety's sake - all on your daily carry. One choice for speed and one choice for safety, but inversely applied reasoning IMO.
I would temporarily retire the broken gun until fixed and carry one that works properly with a full, ready load as it was designed to do, but that is just me.
To all other posters/readers: It is highly recommended that any malfunction, damage, breakage and/or safety issue with your gun be corrected before you trust your life and the life of others to that particular personal protection tool.
