The Taurus G3 9mm Black/Tan 15+1 pairs a Tenifer matte black slide with a tan polymer frame on a full-size striker-fired platform (Taurus part no. 1-G3B941T-15). A 4-inch barrel, a manual safety and 15-round magazines make it a straightforward choice for home defense, range work or a duty-size carry gun. Taurus adds re-strike capability and a Picatinny rail, so a failure-to-fire can be answered with another trigger pull and a light can mount below the muzzle. The two-tone finish sets it apart from the all-black G3 models at the same size.

Key Specifications

• Chambering is 9mm Luger, a widely available round that keeps range sessions and carry ammunition affordable.
• Magazine capacity is 15 rounds, and two magazines are included in the box.
• A manual safety sits alongside the loaded chamber indicator, striker block and trigger safety, giving the shooter a switch to engage when the pistol is holstered or stored.
• The barrel measures 4.00 inches with a 1:10 right-hand twist, a length that favors sight radius and velocity over a compact footprint.
• Overall length is 7.28 inches with a height of 5.20 inches and a width of 1.20 inches, a full-size footprint that fills the hand.
• Unloaded weight is 24.83 ounces, enough mass to tame recoil during longer strings of fire.
• Sights are a fixed front with a drift-adjustable rear, so windage can be corrected with a simple sight pusher or punch.
• The action is single action with re-strike capability, letting you pull the trigger again on a failure-to-fire without recycling the slide.
• The frame is tan polymer, a lightweight material that keeps the full-size pistol comfortable to carry and shoot.
• The slide is alloy steel with a Tenifer matte black finish, riding over a matte stainless steel barrel.
