I was able to get a new one for $420 in late October and have been mostly impressed with it! The only thing I didn't like about it was changing out the cheap plastic grips to Magpul grips. The grip screws are Allen screws which are notorious for stripping easily. I ended up having to break one of the grips to get it off, and use a dremel to get the stripped screw out, which ended up pulling the grip screw bushing with it. Then managed to strip 2 on the bushings (less than common occurrence but does happen). Had to take a dremel to one of those to get it out of the frame. I have since replaced most of them with Strike Ind bushings and VZ torx screws and have not had a single problems since.
The gun itself is great! Shoots well, works fine with factory Taurus mags, Remington and Chip McCormick mags. The trigger feels solid. I've out at 500 rounds through it and haven't had a single FTE, FTF, or any other issue.
The magpul moe grips are inexpensive and you can get them on the Amazon.
