Taurus G3 9mm Pistol with 4" Barrel and Adjustable Sights - Black (Model 1G3B94110)

The Taurus G3 9mm pistol is a full-size, polymer-frame striker-fired pistol built for shooters who want a straightforward, reliable platform at a practical price point. With a 4-inch barrel and adjustable sights, the G3 delivers a combination of accessibility for newer shooters and enough performance features to satisfy regulars at the range or in the field. The grip is generously stippled for control, and the frame includes an integrated Picatinny rail for mounting a light or laser if you choose.

The ergonomics are thoughtfully laid out: the manual safety and slide release lever sit right where your thumb naturally rests, and the frame includes side-frame Memory Pads that help you find a consistent hand position shot after shot. The 6-pound trigger breaks clean with minimal takeup and a short reset, which translates to faster, more controlled follow-up shots than you'd expect from a duty-style pistol at this level. The sighting system pairs a fixed white-dot front sight with a serrated, drift-adjustable rear sight—simple iron sights that work and can be fine-tuned for your point of aim.

Build quality emphasizes durability: the slide is steel alloy with a matte black Tenifer finish, and the barrel is matte stainless steel. The single-action design with restrike capability means if a primer fails to fire, you can pull the trigger again without manually working the slide. The pistol comes with two magazines and includes a loaded chamber indicator, a striker block, and a trigger safety as standard safety features.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Taurus G3 9mm good for concealed carry or home defense?

The G3 is a full-size pistol, which makes it more suited to open carry, range work, or home defense than to concealed carry. At 24.83 oz and 7.28 inches long, it's a solid handful. For EDC or IWB carry, many shooters prefer a compact or subcompact 9mm.

Can I mount a red dot or light on this pistol?

Yes. The G3 has an integrated Picatinny rail on the frame, so you can add a light, laser, or other rail-mounted accessory. The factory sights are steel irons, not milled for an optic, but the rail gives you flexibility for tactical or training setups.

What safety features does the G3 have?

The G3 includes a manual safety lever (positioned above the thumb for easy manipulation), a trigger safety, a striker block, and a loaded chamber indicator. It's a striker-fired design with a single-action mechanism and restrike capability, meaning if a round fails to fire, you can pull the trigger again without working the slide.

What comes in the box with the G3?

The pistol comes with two magazines. It does not come with a case, holster, or cleaning kit; plan to purchase those separately if needed.
