  • Taurus PT 24/7 OSS Trigger Travel

    I recently purchased a Taurus PT 24/7 OSS. The first time I shot it I notice it had a lot of trigger travel. More than any gun I have ever shot. Of course you get used to it after a while and don't hardly notice it. I looked in the owners manual to see if i could find the reason. It seems like it has a lot of trigger travel because it's a safety feature. Has anyone noticed the Trigger Travel on it?


    This is out of the owner's manual:


    Trigger Safety:

    This device is designed to preclude the backward movement of the trigger bar so as to prevent an accidental discharge in case the firearm is dropped. The system is disengaged when the trigger is pulled to the rear.

    Firing Pin Block:

    The firing pin block, which is designed to prevent the firing pin from going forward and striking the primer, is engaged until the trigger is in its final rearward position. This device is designed to preclude an accidental discharge should the firearm be dropped.

    yes, as you know, that's the first thing I noticed about it.
    But as you said. Once you squeeze a few rounds off, you get used to it. Then you just "stage" for it. (pull that distance out of the trigger for each shot)

      Its seems all these Polymer guns have safeties built in the trigger. The first pull is long and spongy until you hit the hard spot to fire then if you repeat firing it will stay back at the hard spot. I don't like it either and the Smith and Wesson Sigma is the worst.

        I dig the DA/SA with all the Taurus models. That is very handy.
        I'm really considering the 709. It doesn't have quite the trigger travel of the other models. It has that second trigger safety that Glock and the new Ruger SR-9 has. ya know, that little 2-piece trigger?... The trigger can't be disengaged until that little (1st) safety trigger is pulled. And the 709 is still DA/SA which, I think, is sweet.

          The SR9 isn't a bad gun- I almost bought that one
