The Taurus Spectrum 380: What went wrong and will it...
May 18, 2019 · The Taurus TCP-738 was already well regarded and was widely regarded as a superior Pocket Pistol compared to the Ruger LCP. Sure, Ruger and Smith & Wesson had released new .380 Pocket Pistols of their own in the form of the LCP II and M&P 380, but the TCP-738 seemed to still be selling due to its lower price point.

Spectrum finally discontinued... - Taurus Firearm Forum
Sep 21, 2022 · 1177 posts · Joined 2017. #8 · Sep 23, 2022. Surprised that Taurus hadn't come up with a new "latest and greatest" 380 before discontinuing the Spectrum. This means that they'll have to replace someones Spectrum with a 9mm since we all know they never have parts to fix discontinued guns.
Finally! A Captured Spring Guide Rod For Spectrum!! - Taurus …
Jul 24, 2020 · Factory fiochii JHP 13 non hornady bullet had two stovepipes. Normally my Taurus TCP/spectrum do not like fiocchi ammo. Felt recoil is somewhat less that factory spring. I do not know if the issues are related to the recoil guide, do not believe so. Factory ammo is hard to come by and expensive.

Dec 5, 2021 · Taurus Spectrum problems. Picked a brand new Taurus Spectrum .380 at Sportsman's Warehouse today and took it to the range. The gun was accurate, and fired everything I put into it, but had some unusual problems with inserting the magazines and ejection. I cycled both magazines several times and both magazines would not fully eject the last round.
Taurus Spectrum - Long Term Review & Problems
Jan 26, 2018 · Good test! I think, based on what I am reading (and have experienced), light primer strikes are going to be a problem for Taurus with this gun. My Spectrum is back at Taurus as we speak for the issue and a cracked trigger as well. It is starting to feel like Taurus is going to have to revise the firing pin/spring design.
Taurus Spectrum Defensive Rounds... Suggestions?
May 2, 2019 · 2) ballistic gels must be mixed correctly . 3) ballistic gels need to be at a certain temperature range,. 4) not all testing media is ballistic gel. 5) ammunition maybe shot at different distances or different angles. at the end of the day bal gel does not duplicate human body so remember its a testing medium.

Feb 28, 2019 · With respect to Taurus quality, I've had both the PT111 G2 and the 709 Slim for about 4 years and have never had any issues with either. The 709 Slim might be a suitable alternative to the Spectrum. A stiff trigger is not typical of a single action pistol. It is typical and the norm in most double action pistols. Don.

I was just on the US Taurus website and while the Curve is still listed I notice the Spectrum is totally missing. It shows in the 2018 Catalog but not among the current lineup of pistols. Is it just an oversight or is the Spectrum now among the "Disappeared Tauruses"?
The Taurus Spectrum 380: What went wrong and will it...
Feb 9, 2021 · They should have fixed the problem even if they had to re-release it as the new and improved Spectrum 2. It just seems like they didn’t bother addressing the problems and when the chorus of complaints got load enough, they just canceled the whole thing. Doesn’t sound to me like Taurus was much interested in the Spectrum to begin with.
