Got a couple of the new Taurus Curve pistols today. Before they arrived, someone from Taurus called us to tell them we couldn’t sell them, and had to send them back to the factory… due to issues they refused to discuss."

{——SNIP——}

"Went to Dick’s today to see the new Curve that they expected to receive yesterday and I was told that the Curves have been recalled because Taurus did not print the caliber on the barrels."

Ooops. I wonder if they had firing pins, triggers and all that other stuff with them. Apparently they had barrels...

I figured it was because they only shoot around right hand curves/corners.

Interesting little gun. Might make a decent BUG in an ankle holster.

That is an odd gun.. Just looking at if makes you think it must have feeding problems, curved and all..

That doesn't say much for their Quality Control people. At least it's better than having a functional problem. It's kinda ugly actually in my opinion. Probably wouldn't make for a bad pocket or purse pistol. Will be interesting to see how it sells and performs over time.

Maybe they recalled it before someone walking their dog
shoots the dog when they thought they were just letting
out some more leash on the leash device?? :-)

Salvador Dali is designing for Taurus?

The magazine isn't curved. They built a curved frame around a regular handgun...sort of...

Is this anyother gymicky thing like curved tvs? I see no point of it. And being left handed even less.
