Taurus rolled out the TX9 as its first centerfire entry in the TX family, and the full-size version makes a strong first impression. The platform is built around a serialized stainless steel chassis that is the serialized component of the firearm, meaning the grip module is just a shell you can swap out. Buy compact or subcompact frame modules separately and your TX9 can grow or shrink depending on the day. The 4.5" gas nitride-finished alloy steel slide keeps things corrosion resistant, the Picatinny rail up front is ready for a light or laser, and the whole package tips the scales at 25 oz. unloaded.
The flat-face polymer trigger with integrated blade safety is one of the TX9's standout qualities. Pull weight averages right around the standard striker-fired range, with a feel that reviewers have repeatedly compared to a single-action trigger rather than the mushy take-up you find on some budget guns. The grip shape carries over the contours that made the TX22 so popular, and four interchangeable backstraps let you dial in the fit. Grip texture is aggressive enough to hold through extended range sessions without tearing up your hands. Both the slide release and magazine catch are fully ambidextrous or reversible, so lefties aren't an afterthought here.
The TX9 ships with a removable white dot front sight and a drift-adjustable white dot rear. Both are steel with Glock-pattern dovetail cuts, which means a huge aftermarket selection is already compatible if you want to upgrade. The T.O.R.O. slide cut handles red dot mounting through Taurus's plate system, compatible with popular optics including the Holosun 507 and Trijicon RMR. Keep in mind the optics plates are sold separately through Taurus, so budget for that if you're planning to mount glass right away. Two Mec-Gar manufactured 17-round magazines are included in the box.
No, the T.O.R.O. optics plate is not included in the box. The slide is pre-cut and ready to accept a plate, but Taurus sells the mounting plates separately through ShopTaurus.com for around $20. Compatible optics include the Holosun 507 series, Trijicon RMR, and others using the same footprint.
Yes, that is the whole point of the Taurus Modular System. The serialized fire control chassis removes from the grip module with a cross-pin, and you can drop it into a compact or subcompact frame module. This means you essentially own one firearm that can be configured to three different sizes, similar in concept to what SIG does with the P320.
The TX9 uses industry-standard Glock-pattern steel dovetails for both the front and rear sights, so a wide range of aftermarket options from brands like Trijicon, AmeriGlo, and TruGlo will fit without any modifications. The front sight is also removable independently from the rear, giving you flexibility to mix and match.
The TX9 uses a flat-face polymer trigger with a bladed safety, and pull weight averages around 5.8 lbs. in testing. The feel lands closer to a single-action trigger than a traditional safe-action pull, with a clean break. One quirk noted by reviewers is that the reset is very soft with minimal tactile feedback, so it takes a bit of adjustment if you are used to the snappier reset of a Glock.
The TX9 does not have an external manual thumb safety. Its passive safety system consists of a trigger blade safety and an internal firing pin block, which is the standard safety setup for most modern striker-fired duty pistols. If a manual safety is a must-have for you, this is worth knowing before you buy.
The TX9 Full Size ships with two 17-round magazines. Taurus contracted Mec-Gar to manufacture the magazines, which is a well-regarded OEM supplier used by a number of top pistol makers. The double-stack bodies transition to a single-round exposed position at the follower for consistent feeding reliability.
