I wasn't that accurate from the 3 yard mark, at any time. i would have been happy with what you shot. It shoots consistently low. At 3 yards it was about 6 inches low. yeah, i know.

With my PT 111 I can generally put three shots in a 3" or less group, at 7 yards, standing and shooting without support. That's not exactly sharpshooter accuracy, but it's good enough for me.<br /><br />As for issues with the PT 111's accuracy, FWIW it's my impression, based on articles and posts in the firearms industry press, along with reviews and discussions with other Taurus owners, that Taurus quality control is somewhat inconsistent. Some folks seem to get tackdrivers, while others get scatterguns. OTOH, Taurus products are relatively affordable when compared to Glocks, Berettas, etc.<br /><br />Toejam - Good choices. I also found my Springfield to be on the bulky side for concealed carry. I generally use it as a house gun, or a truck/travel gun (think center console, or motel room). It helps me sleep better when I'm on the road.CenTexTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04026518638421849111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321000796775197665.post-65567149437397019752016-01-05T11:36:26.405-06:002016-01-05T11:36:26.405-06:00I own a 9 mm Taurus 709 "slim" and like ...I own a 9 mm Taurus 709 "slim" and like CTT I'm not happy with the trigger action. I prefer my Ruger 5 round .357 "wheel gun" for Conceal carry even though reloading even with a speed-loader is not as rapid as dropping an empty magazine and slamming a full one home. I like the "punch" of a .357 magnum Hornady hollow-point. <br /><br />My favorite semi-auto is my Springfield Armory XD40, but it's kinda bulky for Conceal Carry.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321000796775197665.post-25909030315140735132016-01-05T09:37:32.211-06:002016-01-05T09:37:32.211-06:00I have that same PT 111. i have issues with the a...I have that same PT 111. i have issues with the accuracy. I can't get a consistent grouping at any distance. even extremely short. I know I'm not a marksman by any means, but nothing else I shoot is that bad. Leave me scratching my head. I was hoping they would just take it back and i could use the money on something else. The recall won't work that way it appears.
