Don't be bashing Taurus too much. The revolver line is very good, quality steel, improvements in technology have made them much better, they are +P rated, (per the 2010-2011 catalog) and I'll bet it goes bang every time.

My M85 snub does. ;D

Tempting, and no offense against Charter arms, but I will take a Taurus 1st, for being S&W design based. I would like to handle that one, the porting is really not going to work, and just make the front sight get bigger and bigger with carbon build up. But it is an interesting size, smaller than my S&W 625 3". The one on the bottom, also capable of shooting .45 Super, my 185 grn hp loads do 1270 fps.
