The micro-compact 9mm market is crowded, but the GX4 made a real impression when Taurus launched it as their first purpose-built pistol in this category. Rather than trimming down an existing design, Taurus engineered the GX4 from scratch with everyday carry as the only goal. The result is a striker-fired pistol that measures just 6.05 inches long, 4.4 inches tall, and right around an inch wide, while still holding 11+1 rounds of 9mm. At 18.5 ounces unloaded, it carries lighter than you might expect for a double-stack micro.
This particular model features the Tungsten Gray Cerakote slide finish, which pairs cleanly with the matte black polymer frame and gives the gun a sharp two-tone look that holds up well over time. The barrel is stainless steel with a satin black DLC coating for added durability, and a full-length stainless steel internal chassis keeps the frame rigid and the slide rails in proper alignment over the long haul. Control surfaces get a Teflon coating, and the internal metal parts are nickel plated, so everything runs smoothly and resists corrosion. The sights are steel units with a white dot front and a serrated, drift-adjustable rear, and they use a Glock-compatible footprint, which opens up plenty of aftermarket upgrade options down the road.
Taurus put real thought into the grip on the GX4. The frame matches the width of the slide and is properly contoured to spread recoil across the hand rather than concentrating it in the thumb web like older narrow-grip pocket guns. Aggressive but not punishing stippling wraps the sides, front, and backstrap, and the gun ships with two backstrap sizes so you can fit it to your hand. The flat-face serrated trigger has a crisp break and a short tactile reset, which makes it easy to shoot well. Front and rear slide serrations give you solid purchase for manipulations, the nose of the slide is rounded for snag-free re-holstering, and all external edges are smoothed off with carry in mind. A visual loaded chamber indicator, striker block, and trigger safety round out the passive safety package. Takedown is handled by a recessed lever that turns with any flat edge, keeping the profile clean and snag-free. The GX4 ships with two flush-fit 11-round Italian-made Mec-Gar magazines and is backed by Taurus's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
No, the GX4 does not have a manual thumb safety. It relies on a trio of passive safeties instead: a trigger blade safety, a striker block, and a loaded chamber indicator/witness hole. This is a pretty standard setup for modern striker-fired carry pistols and keeps the draw stroke clean and consistent.
The GX4 comes with steel fixed sights, a white dot front and a serrated, drift-adjustable rear. The good news for anyone who wants to upgrade is that the GX4 uses a Glock-compatible sight footprint, so there are plenty of aftermarket options available including fiber optic and tritium night sights.
The GX4 sits right in the same class, measuring 6.05 inches long, 4.4 inches tall, and just over an inch wide at 18.5 ounces unloaded. It matches up closely with the P365 and Hellcat in footprint and capacity, making it a legitimate competitor in the micro-9 carry category.
Yes. Beyond the flush-fit 11-round magazines that come with the gun, Taurus and aftermarket sources offer 13-round extended magazines that add a bit of grip length, which many people find helpful for recoil management and getting a fuller grip with larger hands.
The GX4 uses a recessed takedown lever that can be rotated with a coin or any flat edge, which keeps the profile snag-free during carry. After turning the lever and clearing the gun, the slide comes straight off the frame with no tricks involved, and reassembly is just as straightforward.
The GX4 features a flat-face serrated trigger with a single-action-only pull that averages around 6 to 7 pounds. It has a clearly defined wall, a crisp break, and a short tactile reset, which makes it one of the better factory triggers you will find on a carry pistol in this price range.
