Taurus G3 Tact 9mm 4.5" 17-Round Threaded Barrel

The Taurus G3 Tact 9mm 4.5" 17-Round Threaded Barrel represents a modern evolution in duty-ready striker-fired pistols, engineered for law enforcement, military, and professional shooters who demand reliable performance with platform versatility. This tactical variant ships with a threaded barrel, enabling direct attachment of sound suppressors or compensators without requiring adapter sleeves—a critical advantage in low-light operations and dynamic environments where response time matters. The 4.5-inch barrel strikes a balance between velocity, handling, and concealability, while the 17-round capacity provides substantial firepower for extended engagements or sustained operations.

Built on the proven G3 platform, this pistol features a full-length steel slide, precision-machined receiver, and ergonomic frame geometry optimized for both standard and tactical grips. The 1/2x28 threaded muzzle accommodates industry-standard suppressors and muzzle devices, allowing shooters to tailor ballistic characteristics, recoil signature, or sound signature to mission requirements. Taurus's quality-control improvements in recent generations have addressed historical reliability concerns, delivering a combat-capable platform that functions consistently across diverse ammunition types and environmental conditions. The G3 Tact's approximately 4.69-pound weight distributes recoil efficiently, reducing shooter fatigue during extended range sessions or multi-day training courses.

Field professionals—including patrol officers, tactical team members, and armed security personnel—benefit most from the G3 Tact's threaded-barrel configuration and high-capacity magazine. Its compact profile accommodates IWB and duty-belt holsters designed for modern tactical rigs, while the 9mm Luger chambering ensures ammunition commonality across most departments and training facilities. Installation of suppressors requires only hand-tight engagement with the barrel threads; no gunsmithing is necessary. Those seeking suppressor-ready capability without custom gunwork or barrel replacement will find this factory-threaded option immediately deployment-ready.
