Description

Taurus built the GX2 to be the successor to the wildly popular G2c, and they clearly did their homework. The result is a compact 9mm that takes the ergonomic DNA from the GX4 platform and packages it into an affordable carry pistol with a proper 13+1 flush-fit capacity. It sits comfortably in the hand, runs reliably, and comes ready to work right out of the box. The overall length is just 6.19 inches, width is 1.18 inches, and the unloaded weight comes in at 19 oz., making it easy to carry all day without feeling like you're hauling something around.

What Makes the GX2 Stand Out as a Carry Pistol

The grip on the GX2 is one of its strongest selling points. Taurus engineered a high backstrap cut and an undercut trigger guard to help you get your hand as high on the frame as possible, which naturally helps manage muzzle rise. The 360-degree grip texturing is firm enough to keep things in control during fast drills or sweaty range sessions without chewing up your hands or your holster. The flat-face trigger breaks at roughly 6 pounds with a short, positive reset, and the serrated rear sight is designed to reduce glare during fast target acquisition. The sights use a standard Glock-pattern dovetail, so swapping to aftermarket options is a simple and affordable upgrade if you want to go that route.

The GX2 in Tan/Black: Features Worth Knowing

This specific model pairs a tan polymer frame with a matte black serrated alloy steel slide, giving it a clean bi-tone look that stands out from the all-black crowd. Inside, a stainless-steel chassis houses the fire-control components and serves as the serialized firearm, which is the same modular approach Taurus uses on the GX4. Field stripping is handled by a toolless rotating takedown lever, a genuine improvement over the GX4 that required a tool to disassemble. Safety-wise, the GX2 runs a three-layer system: a trigger blade safety, an internal striker block, and a frame-mounted manual thumb safety. The three-slot Picatinny rail on the dustcover opens the door to most compact weapon lights and lasers on the market. This package includes two flush-fit 13-round steel magazines and is backed by Taurus's limited lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Taurus GX2 come with a manual thumb safety?

Yes, the GX2 includes a frame-mounted manual thumb safety in addition to the trigger blade safety and an internal striker block safety. That gives you three layers of passive and active protection. It's worth noting that the manual safety is a single-sided left-hand control, so lefties will need to work around it.

Are the sights on the GX2 upgradeable, and what pattern do they use?

The GX2 uses a Glock-pattern dovetail on both the front and rear sights, which is one of the most widely supported sight standards in the aftermarket. That means you have a huge selection of drop-in upgrades available, from fiber optic to tritium night sights, without needing any gunsmithing.

How does the GX2 compare to the older Taurus G2c?

The GX2 is a meaningful step forward from the G2c in several areas. It bumps capacity from 12+1 to 13+1 with a flush-fit magazine, features a flatter, more refined trigger, adds a full MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail (vs. the G2c's single-slot rail), and incorporates a toolless rotating takedown lever that makes field stripping much more convenient. The ergonomics also get a notable upgrade, borrowing the high grip cut and undercut trigger guard design from the GX4 platform.

What kind of weapon lights will fit the GX2's accessory rail?

The GX2 has a three-slot MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail on the frame's dustcover, which is compatible with a wide range of compact pistol lights and laser units. Popular options from Streamlight, SureFire, Olight, and others designed for compact or subcompact frames will generally fit. Always verify your specific light model's rail compatibility before purchasing.

What is the trigger pull weight on the Taurus GX2?

The GX2 uses a flat-face striker-fired trigger that breaks at roughly 6 pounds on average, with a short take-up and a clean break at 90 degrees. Reset is short and tactile. Multiple reviews from writers who tested the pistol at Gunsite Academy noted it as a genuinely good trigger for the price point.

Is the magazine release on the GX2 reversible for left-handed use?

Yes, the magazine release button on the GX2 is reversible and can be swapped to the right side for left-handed shooters. It's a feature that doesn't always show up at this price point, and it's a practical touch that left-handed buyers will appreciate.
