Does anyone have this pistol?

If so, what are your thoughts on them?

Check out this review of different kinds of ammo. If you pause the video at the very beginning you can see the guy is using a Taurus 738 TCP in .380.

Overall, this write up has some very interesting results...

Sorry to say that I have not shot one so I cannot tell you how it feels in your hand.

here is another article giving some additional balistic information on the .380 round...

That's my EDC weapon. It's light and easily concealed. I can put it in my pocket with no problem. I also have a small holster that I wear on my flank that I can completely stuff in a shirt and just see the clip. It does ok accuracy wise. You won't shoot anyone over 20-30 feet with it. I believe it would serve its purpose in the time of need.

I have one and like it well. Very small. I like that it fits in my pocket and no one knows I have it. It may not be the same quality of a MP Bodyguard, but it's almost $100 cheaper. A good value if you want a pocket gun.

If you're close to the Gadsden Anniston area, we can meet and you can shoot mine if you like.

I have one as well and love it. Very easy to conceal and pretty accurate.

Thanks for the input and offer to shoot one Turtle. I've had several pocket pistols before and carried them a whole bunch, so I kinda know what to expect. I've been told that it has a very good trigger for that size/type of gun. Better than the LCP or KelTec. Any thoughts on the trigger?

Can't believe this on here today. Been reading up on this very pistol this morning.

Around 9% up here. My wife has an LCP, don't really care for the long trigger pull, but if needed close in should get the job done. I'm not familiar wit the Taurus, just the LCP and Keltec, but you have me interested now...

I can't speak for the LCP as I haven't shot one. It was my first choice for a pocket gun,but I found my TCP with a good deal. I can say that I do like the TCP trigger better than my stepson's Kel Tec.
