Taurus 905

Anybody have any opinions, either good or bad?

Not a big fan of the 9mm, but a friend of mine is thinking about getting one. I would want a longer grip, though. Does Pachmayer make a grip which extends below like the one for the Colt D-frame? The D-frame grip is still small enough to conceal nicely, but I forget which Pachmayer series it is.

Tnx.

Any grip that fits a Small Frame Taurus will fit a 905

(S&W J frame grips DO NOT FIT ON Tauruses)

Several companies make longer "combat" grips - I would look at
the Hogue offerings.

Does your friend shoot a lot of 9MM ?

(I prefer .357/.38 in my Taurus 651 )

I'd love to get one of these guns.....especially the "smaller than J Frame" 905IB (Instant Backup).

I've heard that the Stellar clips are somewhat flimsy and prone to losing rounds when they are loose.

AKsrule;

Yes, the reason he is thinking of the 905 is so he won't have another caliber to reload.
