When the Security System is engaged, the Taurus’ manual safety can’t be disengaged and the gun can’t be cocked or fired. The Taurus Security System includes manual and trigger safeties which make the Beretta-imitation inoperable at the turn of a key. This new safety component not only adds another level of protection, but also gives the shooter the ability to choose between actions.įurthermore, an integrated Decocker lever allows the 92 to be decocked easily. Additionally, the Brazilian company also incorporated a remarkable ambidextrous 3-position safety Decocker. In addition to the standard Taurus Security System, the PT92 also includes a 3-position ambidextrous safety mounted on the frame. This new design feature effectively prevents damage to the body of the gun while simultaneously keeping the slide in place. In order to increase its durability, Taurus outfitted their 92 with a drop hammer forged ordnance grade alloy frame. Since then, the PT92’s build has undergone several makeovers and received countless upgrades, while still maintaining its classic appearance and appeal.
The Brazilians were intent on using the Beretta 92 as a base but did some serious improvements to make it truly their own. Manufactured in Brazil, this beast was designed in the early 1980’s after Taurus acquired a factory from the Italian company. The Taurus PT92 is a semi-automatic, short-recoil action handgun developed as a reproduction of the famous Beretta.
Beretta had won a contract to supply weapons to the Brazilian Army, but agreed to build a new plant in Brazil and employ Brazilian workers. Towards the end of the 20th century, Taurus had a bout of good fortune when they stumbled upon an agreement with the classic Italian firearms company, Beretta. In today’s review, we’re gonna be looking at the PT92, Taurus’ reproduction of the classic Beretta pistol. In addition to their early replicas of popular Smith and Wesson guns, Taurus also constructed hugely successful replicas of the Beretta 92 and Colt 1911. Besides for crafting their own models, they’ve also perfected the art of reproducing classics. Not only has Taurus produced an impressive line of firearms, they have produced a diverse line of firearms. The company has built a catalogue ideal for target shooting, concealed carry, and home & personal defense.
