Already have good experience with Glock 30 and was looking for another 45 compact with a smaller grip for wife (G30 grip was too big for her hands).
The staff at the range suggested I try the newer PT145 Millennium Pro (Does not have the
Pro on the left side of the slide). I did not like the DAO triggers of previous generation Taurus models, but liked the SA/DA (multi-strike) trigger of the PT145 Mil Pro when I dry fired it. During live fire, I was very pleasantly surprised. The trigger was very much improved (shoots SA all the time unless no primer ignition - then DA on second pull+) and of course, the grip was small enough for my wife - Yes, hard to believe the small grip for a 10 round double column magazine. FYI, it uses the same Fobus holster as the Springfield XD45.
Although I am a fan of Glocks, I find the ergonomics of PT145 Mil Pro better: Grip angle is more similar to 1911/Sig (I can point to any door knob and the Heine straight eight sights are always dead-on), magazine release can be actuated without adjusting the grip (full metal magazine releases freely without bulging), slide lock has more aggressive/larger grip, and the added safety is a plus for those that want it (it is mounted to drop for fire and works very well with a definite "click" with the thumb).
I bought the Taurus PT145 Mil Pro with stainless slide last year and have put it through several thousand round test and it has yet to jam, FTF or FTE using various factory ammunition and jacketed/plated/lead reloads. It also feeds/chambers 200gr LSWC without ANY problem. The ramp comes highly polished and the 200gr LSWC literally "HOPS" into the chamber.
Many will be surprised to hear that PT145 Mil Pro is actually shorter than my Glock 27 and comparable in height/width with G27 Pearce grip extension. Since the purchase, I find myself pushing the G27 at my wife more often so I can shoot the PT145 Mil Pro. She doesn't mind as the recoil of G27 is less.
I would highly recommend the PT145 Mil Pro as a compact carry/CCW and SD/HD pistol.
FYI - Old PT145 magazine will not work in the newer PT145 Pro.
