I'll be fascinated to see this in person. I assume it will feature the same innards as their excellent PT738. The only YouTube Curve video I could find with actual shooting looked very promising, as well as a report I read from a writer who fired a test model. That I'm even considering Taurus is a little sad but their reviews are so good, regardless of price, and it looks like the Kahr CW380 has about a 50/50 chance of either being an outstanding performer or a total fail. Others seem to be somewhere in-between.
My unsolicited $0.02: 1. I had a Taurus 24/7 and it never had any issues at all. It was very reliable. 2. If the three people I know how own a Taurus (non-revolver) there are no complaints...but only one uses it as a ccw. 3. Considering the amazing return policy and general customer service policy Taurus has, I don't think it's a bad option at all.
I totally agree, it looks like fun too! I was mostly referencing your statement that you were sad to consider it...I have my brand loyalties (not being a total brand whore though) but I wouldn't feel bad at all about this. I appreciate the video though, that was worthwhile
I think Taurus's past reliability issues still taints their reputation to this day. As of late, the company is producing quality firearms. Unlike...say... Remington, which is trending in the other direction,
Pin it!

Check this out, especially the video a little way down. Makes that snappy little .380 look awfully tame.
