Taurus G3 TORO Full Size 9mm Pistol - Black (1-G3P941)

The Taurus G3 TORO full-size 9mm pistol brings modern optic-ready capability to an already capable duty and carry platform. The G3 TORO features a factory-cut slide milled to accept a micro red dot—no gunsmith work required. An ingenious interchangeable plate system lets you mount a broad range of popular red dots on the market, giving you flexibility to choose the optic that fits your shooting style, whether that's personal defense, range work, or competition.

The full-size polymer frame carries over the G3's ergonomic design: aggressive grip stippling for control in wet or gloved conditions, a textured palm swell for natural positioning, and Memory Pads on the frame that help you find your purchase fast and consistently. Up top, the manual safety and slide release sit right where your thumb expects them. An integrated Picatinny rail forward of the trigger guard is ready for a light or laser. The sighting setup pairs a fixed white-dot front sight with a serrated, drift-adjustable rear sight—both steel—so you can dial in your baseline irons while you sort out your optic choice.

The action is single-action with restrike capability, driven by a striker system. Taurus engineered the 6-pound trigger with a smooth takeup and a crisp, clean break that punches above its weight-class for a pistol in this category. A short reset means follow-up shots stay fast and controlled. The stainless steel barrel, steel-alloy slide with a Tenifer matte black finish, and polymer frame rated for 17 rounds of 9mm make for a tough, practical workhorse that handles everything from the range to duty carry.

Two magazines come with the gun. The G3 TORO is a straightforward, no-nonsense tool that respects the shooter's budget while delivering the optic-mounting capability that's become the standard for serious pistol users.
