Howdy Amigo!
I ain't sure of the astrological implications of me (a Leo) owning a Taurus, but I surely do love my Judge. I run both .410 and 45 long Colt through that revolver and enjoy shooting the gun. However, due to it having a large size, I don't see it as a carry weapon, unless I choose to carry it openly. Concealment would be an issue with that particular pistol.
Like so many others in this thread, I have a Springfield Armory pistol for conceal, but don't have a permit yet. On my list of things to do. So I open carry my XDm .40 everywhere I go in Colorado. It is a terrific weapon and fun to fire at the range. Being a compact, it is a good gun for conceal carry. I also have a full size Ruger P94, and it is a great gun too. The accuracy at 5 yards and 7 yards is hard to beat.
But when it comes to a carry weapon, my choice is the SA XDm .40 and what I wear every day.
I'm pretty impressed with the Beretta Px4 Storm subcompact I bought for my wife, and it is a great gun too.
Somebody suggested going to a range where they have a variety of pistols to rent and try different guns to see what works best for you. However, the Taurus is a great gun and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Good luck on your decision,
Happy shooting.
Blessings,
M-Taliesin
