The Taurus GX2 Light Purple/Stainless 9mm pistol is a compact, striker-fired 9mm from Taurus with a light purple polymer frame and a matte stainless slide, supplied with a 10-round magazine (Taurus part no. 1-GX2939LP-10). A manual safety and a trigger safety are both built into the GX2, and the white-dot front sight and drift-adjustable rear sight make it quick to pick up for everyday carry or range work. The 3.38-inch stainless steel barrel keeps the slide short, and an accessory rail up front leaves room for a light. Two magazines come in the box, so a spare is ready on day one.
