If your palms sweat a lot, you’ll really appreciate the grip. The grip’s surface has decent coverage on the front strap, backstrap, and sides. The stainless steel slide has a corrosion-resistant gas-nitride finish that’s serrated on the front and back, making operation a cinch. This is a major departure for Taurus designs, which means that they’re really trying to make this work. The chassis has two rails that keep the slide assembly stable, unlike regular striker-fired poly pistols with four short ones. It has a well-made polymer grip frame with anti-corrosion properties, and the internal chassis is stainless-steel which is important for reliability and stable shooting.

If you want to go even smaller than 3-inch barrels, take a good look at our round-up of the best pocket pistols of 2021. The main idea is to make the standard, single-stack 9mm pistols roughly the same size while retaining their additional rounds in the magazine. Although Taurus has been receiving slack for their budget handguns, I believe that the GX4 is a fantastic addition to the G series. The Taurus GX4 appeared on the market months ago (May 2021). Now, the Brazilian manufacturer went in with a racehorse of their own. Striker-fired handguns with a polymer frame, usually with a 3.06-inch barrel, and single-column magazines that can accommodate from 7 to 11 9mm rounds, suitable for concealed carry, are all the craze nowadays.
Read on to see if the hundred-dollar jump for this new Taurus micro-compact addition is really worth it.Īn interesting trend emerged in the handgun market over the past years prominent handgun manufacturers are unveiling innovative compact 9mm models with a 10 or 11-round capacity with single-stack magazines, or the “slim-line nine,” as they call it. It’s smaller, the trigger and grip feel nicer, and more importantly, it has an 11+1-round capacity.
I know what you’re thinking, and yes, it’s a definite improvement over the Taurus G3C or the Taurus G2C. We’ll talk about its features, overall feel, where it flops, where it excels, and add some ammo recommendations, as well as alternative EDC pistols for comparison. I had the chance to shoot one of these, and after several sessions, I decided that it’s high time to do a Taurus GX4 review for all of you looking for a new budget handgun for concealed carry purposes. That’s why, in today’s pistol review, I’ll be covering the Taurus GX4 9mm, Taurus’ new micro-compact addition to their budget handgun line of small, striker-fired semi-autos. They constantly come up with new ways to produce cost-effective models with excellent triggers and well-made machinery instead of plastic firing pins and questionable safeties. Nowadays, manufacturers like Ruger and SIG Sauer are on a streak with reliable concealed carry handguns. I think it’s safe to say that the days when compact semi-automatic pistols were considered a compromise on quality are over.
