Design features

[edit]

The Taurus TH series is built on a polymer frame, that has finger grooves along the grip, stippling panels, and comes with interchangeable backstraps. The frame come with a mil-std 1913 Picatinny rail. The pistol incorporates an ambidextrous manual safety. This gives the operator several safe-condition options: hammer down/safety on, hammer down/safety off, and hammer back/safety on. The magazine release is also ambidextrous. The slide is carbon steel.[2]
