The PT-738 Taurus Compact Pistol (TCP) is the lightest firearm Taurus has ever created. The 10.2-ounce 738 TCP is not only the lightest semi-auto in the Taurus line; it’s lighter than any of their small frame revolvers too. The Taurus 738 TCP is made in the USA and offers 6+1 shots of .380 ACP, a durable polymer frame and low-profile fixed sights.
Additional highlighted features of the Taurus TCP include a loaded chamber indicator for added safety, a unique tread pattern on the slide for positive pull and functioning, and a generously sized trigger guard for quick and intuitive access.

Mine is a bit ammo sensitive but once I found the right brand of .380 it has run flawlessly for 400 rounds. Doesn't like Hollow point but the FMJ is plenty deadly. It ejects straight back so I've been burned a couple times by the shells. Took it to a gunsmith who said he couldn't fix the ejector but if I'm in a fight for my life I'm not going to worry about a hot shell. I'm satisfied this firearm is reliable enough to save my life if the day ever comes. Keep it clean. Keep it oiled. It will go bang every single time.
This is a great gun. It shoots very accurately and has a little kick to it. I would recommend that anyone looking to conceal and carry a firearm, please purchase this little guy. He's a triple threat.
What a sweet little pistol. It is very lightweight and easy to have inside your belt or in your pocket. I purchased a laser sight and and set it at 21 feet. This puts it right on target and it packs a punch for a small weapon. Only thing I didn't care for is the short grip. I purchased extensions after trying them on a friends TCP 738. All around great little 380. I would recommend it for sure and it is made in the USA.
This is a very nice little pistol for the money. Shoots well with a nice trigger. Perfect size for concealed carry. I bought a PT 738 about a week ago, and liked the first one so much, I bought a second one. At this price you cannot go wrong. The addition of a small grip extension makes this pistol perfect. SOS- fast shipping and great prices. I'll keep coming back.
This pistol is easily concealed and very light/easy to maneuver. Smooth trigger pull. As for SOS-lightning fast shipping and great price on this Taurus.
The Taurus 738 fired all sorts of ammo when first used. Russian, Remanufactured, and various domestic. Different bullet types too. The trigger is good, but you have to understand the reset means the trigger goes way forward. The grip should have a grip extension included, it is MUCH better with an aftermarket product. I favor the Taurus 738 over the competing Ruger product which I also have. Just be aware when you get/consider.
I took this gun to the range yesterday and WOW!!! I ran 100 rounds of cheap ammo thru it and not one FTF or misfire. It was very accurate with the better ammo. It does have a little more kick than the S&W Body Guard, but it is also smaller and lighter, so that was expected. Very reliable. All and all it is a great pocket gun for the price and I would highly recommend it.
I have purchased two of these over the past year. Great overall conceal gun. I have had Sig 238, and ruger LCP. Like the lightweight of the gun and fill trigger is very nice. The trigger of this gun is better than LCP. This gun fits in your front pocket very nicely and is so light that you do not mind carrying daily.
