Taylor's new lever gun

[DsGrouse]

Fully made in America? By whom? Taylors doesn't have a factory. Taylors is an importer and having Taylor gunsmiths finish and assemble parts made in Italy or other countries outside the US does not meet the requirements of the FTC for claiming made in America.

I think maybe Talor's may just assemble them like you said.
All I know them is they are an importer and some some tuning on those.
I like the concept and the use of non conventional rounds, but
my concern is that 9mm really isn't crimped ammo.
So how well will it work in a tube magazine??

With the weight of the rifle, i'm not sure there would be much recoil. But yeah, that's a problem I'd not thought of.

Cans/suppressors are big buisness. Honestly, they are helpful. They save a lot of hearing damage. With what they've done, I don't know if it would be what I would call Tactictool

Some clarification on this. "Made in USA" and "Made in America" aren't the same thing. With "Made in America" parts and raw materials and final assembly can be sourced from anywhere in the American western hemisphere. North America, South America, Central America for example. "Made in USA" means parts and raw materials are sourced and final assembly are literally completed within the boundaries of the U.S.A. Materials and parts can be sourced from different USA companies with final assembly done by another USA company.

Taylor's website for this rifle claims "Made in USA". It also says "Taylor Tuned". It can be both.

So I wonder who is actually producing the gun? I know Taylors has gunsmiths, but maybe they've expanded? Interesting.

A beautiful rifle in a slingshot/ball bearing caliber.......Why would anyone want a pretty rifle like that in a wienie caliber?

I'd venture they expanded. Writeup here says it's their first all USA made.
“the first Taylor’s firearm manufactured by the company completely in the USA with 100% USA made parts.”

Possibly one of the stupidest ideas Ive seen this year but hey, Im sure something to top it will be along shortly.

Cheer up the year is still young and a lot more stupid things will come.

Like i said earlier. 10mm 40sw....


I wish a company would put one together...

[Bill.68]

I just cant get there from here. Not even in 10mm, which I love, or 40s&w, which I dont.

The odd choice of the caliber is a part of their approach to the transition from a tuner of Ubertis to a full house domestic manufacturer for Taylor. They want to continue the old business, but if they introduced an 1873 in a traditional caliber, they would be competing with Uberti.
