Gun Descriptions

The 800 series is derived from the successful Taurus OSS in pistol designed for the U.S. Armed Forces, but adds an external hammer. The 800 Series is now ready with Strike Two in capability. If you have had a hard primer and the gun misfires, the 800 Series senses this and automatically gives you instant Strike Two in capability by resetting the trigger for automatic double action re-strike. No need to do anything else, simply pull the trigger.

Destined to become the standard that all 1911 pistols are compared against, the Taurus 1911 offers you the most accurate and feature-laden model on the market today. Starting with our own hammer-forged -not cast- ordnance grade steel frames, slides and barrels, we machine each and every part to tolerance levels that surpass even today's industry standards. Our skilled pistol smiths hand-fit and tune each gun with the 19 standard features seen below, using quality parts that are built 100% in our state-of-the-art factory. Then they mark the slide, barrel and frame with matching serial numbers. Available in the powerful .45 ACP, this aggressive, rock-solid firearm is ready to go right out of the box. The Taurus 1911 is an unbeatable gun that is also an unbeatable value.
