Hi folks,
Just a heads up on how Taurus will treat you with defective parts. Over 3 months ago, a friend of mine hands me his brand new Taurus PT1911 stainless and wants to accurize it cause it will not hold groups. It was a little loose but nothing major. I tightened the rails and did a trigger job and then to my amazement, I found the barrel had a rather weird dent in its left side about 1.5" foward the barrel and it took a turn to the left after the oddly shaped crease/dent. I sent the barrel (serial numbered) to Taurus figuring a new one was a no brainer. I heard nothing for 4 weeks, so I called and they said they have the bad barrel and will send out a new barrel once there back order on them is filled. Now, over 3 months latter, and they claim they still have no barrel to send me. <...> is the 1911 not some what popular? Its a shame cause the gun its self was not a bad piece of work over all and with the Ed Brown barrel in the gun it shoots decent groups.
Has any one else been left hanging like this by Taurus?
