Description

Taurus set out to build a micro nine that didn't feel like a compromise, and the GX4 is the result. It's a striker-fired 9mm Luger that holds 11+1 rounds from a flush-fit magazine, runs a 3.06 inch barrel, and measures out at just over six inches long and about an inch wide. That last number matters more than people expect. A pistol this thin rides flat against the body and doesn't print the way a lot of subcompacts do, which is really the whole point of a micro-compact carry gun.

Frame and Slide Details on the GX4 Micro-Compact

Under the polymer grip sits a stainless steel chassis that runs the length of the frame, giving the GX4 the rigidity of a metal-framed gun without the extra bulk. The slide is alloy steel with front and rear serrations, finished in a durable black coating that resists the wear and tear that comes with being carried every single day. Two interchangeable backstraps ship with the pistol so you can dial in the reach and palm swell to fit your hand instead of the other way around, and the grip texture is aggressive enough to stay put even when your hands aren't perfectly dry.

Sights, Trigger, and Safety on the GX4 Micro-Compact

Up top you get a fixed steel front sight with a white dot paired with a drift-adjustable, serrated rear sight, a simple and reliable setup that's compatible with common aftermarket night sights if you want to upgrade later. The flat-face, serrated trigger breaks clean with a short reset, generally settling in somewhere in the 5 to 6 pound range once it's broken in. There's no manual thumb safety, but Taurus built in a trigger safety, an internal striker block, and a visual loaded chamber indicator so you can check the gun's status at a glance without a press check.

Living With the GX4 Micro-Compact Day to Day

At roughly 18.5 ounces unloaded, this is a gun you forget is on your belt until you need it. The textured indexing pads above the trigger guard and the low bore axis help keep muzzle flip in check, so follow-up shots come back on target quicker than the size would suggest. If you outgrow the flush 11-round mag, Taurus also makes a 13-round extended option that trades a little concealment for more capacity and a longer grip. It's a straightforward, well-built package that's earned its spot as one of the more popular options in the crowded micro 9mm class.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many rounds does the Taurus GX4 Micro-Compact hold?

It ships with two 11-round flush-fit magazines, giving you 11+1 capacity right out of the box. Taurus also offers a 13-round extended magazine if you want more rounds or a little extra grip length for your pinky finger.

What's the trigger like on the GX4?

It's a flat-face, serrated trigger with a short, crisp reset. Most owners report a pull weight somewhere between 5 and 6 pounds once the gun has a few hundred rounds through it, which is right in line with other striker-fired carry pistols.

Does the GX4 come with different backstraps?

Yes, one backstrap comes installed at the factory and a second option ships in the case so you can adjust the palm swell and trigger reach to fit your hand better.

Is the GX4 Micro-Compact good for concealed carry?

This gun was built specifically for that job. Its one-inch width and short height make it an easy fit for inside-the-waistband carry, and its light weight means you'll barely notice it after a while.

How do you take the GX4 apart for cleaning?

You use the included keychain tool or a flathead screwdriver to give the takedown pin a quarter turn, then pull the trigger on the cleared gun and slide the upper off the frame. It's a quick process once you've done it a time or two.

Can I add night sights or a light to this pistol?

The rear sight sits in a standard dovetail and the front sight uses a screw attachment, so swapping in aftermarket night sights is straightforward. The standard GX4 doesn't have an accessory rail, so weapon lights aren't compatible with this particular model.
