I agree with
Swampwolf and others here re:
both brand sponsored and non-branded forums having value to offer, including taurusarmed.net
(I never said different)
I own 17 brands of firearms and have surfed branded forums on all of them, plus some, although currently being more interested in whatever brand #18 might next be. Just one of the reasons I spend most of my surfing time on THR and other non-branded forums.
OFF TOPIC,
not being about Taurus 445, which seems to have won high marks in this one
(I saw not one negative comment in text here on the 445, but I did not read all search links found)
from our esteemed unbiased brethren
over yonder
and with apologies aforehand to all poor schleps and pathetic people everywhere
Qwiks draw sez -
They've got one going now in the Revolver Department about the Taurus 445. The guy who started it said he would not take
any data from here because THR was better. I took it to task and then it turned out it was not a actual for real query. It was set up as
bait. Then the anti-group name called in and
lied all over again.
Some
poor schlep actually thought it was a legit query and tried to give real data. He was
cast aside by them. I pulled out quickly.
They all said that
gun specific data was considered as too biased and colored and therefore not relevant.
What horse hockey. Then they declared that
only THR members' "opinions" are what counts. No one else's does. I took on the absurdity of that and then left.
Real people with common sense will see things for what it is.
They are
pathetic over there.

Wouldn't that be just the same, biased?
As far as "THR opinions" being all that counts?
I need to copy that statement.
It will return again and again, thread after thread, over there.
Anyone who talks about "how many are made" or anything else supported by facts will be smacked upside the head by it.
This could be
FUN.

Set them up even more.
PS
some 'truths' in
Qwiks draw's public domain statement above strike me as just a tad skewed (some examples I highlighted in
blue),
I am probably just being a bit peevish and/or shamefully biased, but I do find it tiresome when so oft repeated by same posters here on THR
sorry about all that
do let us know how that 445 works for you, if you go for it
always interested in hands on user experience
in the meantime,

"Appreciate the info-will look at the Taurus site"
good idea... but do try not to get yourself smacked upside the head
