    On the stainless ones, I use a sharpie to blacken the rear face and inside of the notch.
    Sadly it isn’t available at this time.

    Bad news

    Chatting with a buddy this morning. His 856 Talo shit the bed. With just 100 live rounds and approximately 1000 dry fires his firing pin appears to have snapped and is now jammed forward at a downward angle. He is unable to open the cylinder. Taurus is making him pay the return shipping.

    Yeah, that's the thing that sucks about Taurus' warranty. Having to pay $80-90 or $30+transfer fee if you can get your FFL to do it through USPS to fix a $300-400 gun under warranty kinda sucks.

    At least with S&W and Ruger, if they tell you to send it back, they send you a shipping label.

    Was he snap capping with the dryfires?

    @jetfire? Is the return shipping conditional?

    This is the variant that appeals to me, if I see it in a store and it passes muster I might jump. Stoke it with 148g wads.
