Taurus 1-GX2931-EN1 GX2 Compact Frame 9mm Luger 13+1 3.38" Stainless Steel Barrel, Matte Black Serrated Alloy Steel Slide, Black w/Eagle, Stars & Stripes Polymer Frame w/Accessory Rail

The Taurus GX2 is a compact 9mm pistol built for shooters who want a reliable, shootable defensive or range gun without the price tag of premium brands. This single-action striker-fired design pairs a stainless steel barrel with a matte black serrated slide and a tough polymer frame finished in patriotic eagle and stars imagery—practical durability meets personality. At just over 19 ounces unloaded and 6.19 inches overall length, the GX2 Compact fits IWB holsters and waistbands without the bulk, while the 3.38-inch barrel gives you enough sight radius for accurate shooting at typical defensive distances.

The trigger is crisp and consistent, and the single-action platform means no long, heavy first-round press—just straight-through trigger control once you're on target. Two magazines and a 13-round capacity per mag give you solid firepower without reaching full-size grip dimensions. The fixed white-dot front sight and drift-adjustable rear keep your sight picture simple and effective, and the accessory rail lets you mount a light or laser if your carry or duty setup calls for it.

Whether you're breaking in a new shooter, adding a versatile range backup, or shopping for a compact carry piece at a fair price, the Taurus GX2 delivers practical features and proven Taurus reliability. The manual safety and trigger safety give you redundant security, and the matte finish resists glare and shows less wear than polished steel. This is honest, no-nonsense gear for hunters, sport shooters, and defensive-minded folks who appreciate quality engineering without the markup.

Can I mount a light or laser to the GX2?

Yes. The GX2 Compact comes equipped with an accessory rail at the frame, which accepts standard lights and lasers designed for compact polymer frame rails.
