With that chart in hand it only took a few minutes to remove the factory installed filler plate from the slide and install the Holosun HS507C optic that was used throughout the testing process. Keeping track of which parts go with what option would be a bit confusing if not for the easy to read compatibility chart included in the owner's manual. This set includes four base plates and three sets of screws that accommodate 9 different brands of red dot optics.
#AMMUNITION FOR TAURUS G3 9MM FULL#
This ammunition and slide configuration allows for a 2" long section of the slide's top edge, between the rear sight and the ejection port, to be milled, drilled and tapped so that the optic can be attached directly to it.Īlong with the slide cut, the Taurus Optics Ready Option arrives from the factory with a full set of mounting hard. Manufactured in Brazil, this 9 mm semi-auto is outfitted with a short-recoil, locked-breech action and a carbon steel slide. Modifying the G3 striker-fired, polymer-framed pistol for red-dot optics was a fairly straightforward process when compared to the TX22. The G3 series of pistols now includes Taurus Optics Ready Option (T.O.R.O.) models that ship with a well thought out set of mounting hardware. Recognizing the importance of accommodating the red-dot trend, Taurus has introduced new optic-ready models as part of the company's 2021 line up. The use of MRDOs is becoming a popular option in defensive circles because the technology is now reliable and affordable while the sight picture these small reflex optics provide is fast to acquire and intuitive to use in most lighting conditions.Īs a result, just as integral dust cover accessory rails for lights and laser modules became a 'must have' for defensive semi-autos two decades ago, optic ready offerings are quickly becoming the next standard for concealed carry and home defense handguns.
The company upgraded its compact polymer framed defensive 9 mm pistol offerings with the release of the G3 series. Since that time, the industry has seen a sharp rise in the demand for pistols that leave the factory with slides that are ready to accept micro red dot optics (MRDO). Instead, the team focused their efforts on improving product quality, manufacturing consistency and continuing to offer reliable handgun options that meet their customers’ needs at affordable prices. In 2019, Taurus International decided to set aside the company's more unusual offerings.
