Glock 44 in 22lr is a PIECE OF JUNK but this tx22 by taurus is an awsome 22lr gun
Yep..keep moving the pistol around as you speak so we can get dizzy🤪
What brand of .22 ammo do you shoot through your TX22? Those who say "My TX22 will eat ANY ammo that I put through it", I say BS. I’m getting ready to throw my TX away – it’s so unreliable with stovepipe/FTF/FTE. I’ve tried American Eagle, Winchester M*22 and Aguila. Oddly enough, the Aquila went through the TX22 the best – with 3 failures in 200 rounds. The Winchester was horrible, with an astounding 25% feed/eject/fire failures.
I polished the feed ramp (where the flat nosed ammo hung up) and took the magazine apart and cleaned and lubed it with dry lube. I’m going to the gun show on Saturday to pick up a couple of boxes of different brands of ammo and see if my TX is TOO picky with ammo. I can’t find CCI ammo anywhere here, so hopefully I can get my hands on some at the show.
Looks like this will be the next pistol I will get
I need this gun so bad
I like mine Justin it’s a sweet shooter thanks for the video
Bought mine a few days ago. $250 out the door. Fired a brick of Aguila Standard Velocity. Zero misfeeds. Great accuracy. Great review.
Excellent Video! Straight to the point and very fair and honest-THANKS!
Had to.biy one for my girlfriend…
Good video; Thanks. Too many commercials. Less commercials equals more viewership.
I want need a left handed sidearm
Thanks for your great review of the Taurus TX22. The 16 round magazine capacity was the first feature to catch my eye. After noticing that I noticed a good number of positive reviews and purchased one at a good price. I have a good number of Taurus firearms the first being a PT99 made in 1986 that I purchased in the mid 90s. Since then I’ve acquired 3 Taurus revolvers and several of their pistols. All have given me excellent service; reliable and accurate. I’m eager to put my new TX22 through its paces.
I love mine, I purchased the wing man +5 mag extensions and 2 more mags. Now I have to buy 22lr all the time. I’ve got a monkey on my back. Recently purchased the tandem cross eagle eye sights for it and they took it to the next level. Great review. Thankyou and God bless
I must have looked at this gun 5 times before i finally bought it. On the bench especially when new its not too impressive. But then i found my friend had one. I shot one mag and went to the store that day to buy it. Turns out that gritty slide and cheap feel goes away pretty quick. 400 rounds and a little grease on the slide and it feels as premium as any other 22 pistol exept for my mark IV but thats a different class all together.
I just purchased mine here in the state of Oregon and it has the 16 mag.
And I bought it for 229.00.
I just started shooting mine and your video is spot on! Great video as usual and I highly recommend the tx22 for a great day of shooting!
I like Eric Bana’s line in Blackhawk Down.."This is MY safety, sir…"
This review is all good and well BUT you shooting a 8 inch diameter steel plate is WORTHLESS — put a squirrel or rabbit target on your steel plate and show us how far you can them — show us if the TX22 is a worthwhile trail, hiking, or survival tool that will put meat in the pot if needed! ISN’T THAT THE MAIN REASON TO HAVE A .22? Please do the same with the PMR30 if you could.
There’s nothing wrong with taurus guns.the name scares people,that’s all I have taurus guns, never a problem.g3 pt92 afs 357 magnum pt111 pt809 th9 looking at a th40 next
I already bought one a couple of months back and love it. Your review was so good it makes me feel like buying another one!😃
Love my tx 22

Why a lot of people say this is not a good gun to be your only gun because it’s no good for self defense?
A guy once told me that he carries a 22LR as his everyday pistol, and if needed , he will put 6 or 7 rounds bullseye, where a guy with a 9mm will hit one or 2 at the most.
He told me that a 22LR would probably not kill a grizzly, but will kill a person as good as a 9mm, because precision is a key factor when you’re in a stressful situation defending yourself.
In this review we can clearly see the precision the TX22 has, its impressive!
So considering the precision you get from a good 22LR, why almost everybody says it’s not good for self defense? I’ll really wanted to rear some thoughts about this topic…
I think it’s a little overhyped. It’s rare that I can burn through a 16 round mag without a stovepipe , or failure to feed.
Impressive review, I subscribed after it!
Such a good gun for plinking. Love the full size grip.
Thank you for the info and great video 👍🏼
I’ve had one for quite a while. Love it.. shoots great
I’ve been wanting this pistol for awhile now myself
Appreciate the unbiased review. I very much enjoyed it. Thank you!
I really like mine and it is OD Green!
Throw away one camera. I’m getting dizzy watching you look back & forth, back & forth, back & forth. Please , you always have great content. But I’m getting drunk, I would love to be able to watch. No I’m not drinking. Thanks for listening to me rant.
Cant get these in California….cali sucks….
You keep saying it’s a rimfire. I believe that’s a striker fire pistol
I just bought one today…..Hope mine runs like yours!!
Bought 1 today $416 out the door. It does have a flag printed on the slide but it was $389 plus tax. The only 1 I have seen and been looking for over a year,and the last 1 they had. At the gun show and the only 1 there.
0:00 Use the force Luke
Awesome accurate and what a fun gun. Too bad the mags are plastic . sights could be better also but not a showstopper. A blind person can shoot this and score.
Bought the tx22 the day before seeing this video and can’t wait to go shoot it
I took mine to the range today. Awesome pistol. No Issues at all. I go get me another one tomorrow. Thanks for a great review.
What grain cci ammo did you start with?
An indexing point for your index finger imagine that. I ordered one 4 days ago.
I love this video
I tried it at my local FFL. It’s a good shooter but I don’t like the Walther Style expanded "Dogleg" or Hump in the grip. The Ruger SR22, although it has a much better Walther P99-P22 V1 "Dogleg", it is located in the correct place and is much more ergonomic and much more comfortable. IMO. :>)
What eyewear do you have on in this video?
do you need to manually release the slide after inserting a fresh mag?
We saw three of these guns today at three different shops. At one shop it was $400. It was the model with the silver etching or whatever that stuff is and a small shop that does not buy in volume. We then saw it a Field And Stream…all black…for $350. We ended up purchasing it at Academy for $299. The only downside is finding extra mags. Impossible.
The only .22LR that matches the TX in terms of mag capacity is Kel-Tec’s P17. P17 is nearly half the price, but you get half the quality and reliability because Kel-Tec guns are all made of paper.
I purchased this gun today to teach my daughter how to shoot. Feeling good about the decision. Thanks for a quality video!
