TAURUS - From humble beginnings as a small tool manufacturer in Porto Alegre, Brazil over 60 years ago, Forjas Taurus (translation: Taurus Forge) has become a diversified, international company and one of the largest small arms manufacturers in the world.
2006 Taurus announced the formation of Taurus Tactical, a new division addressing itself to Military, Police, State and Federal agencies involved in anti-terrorism activities, Homeland Defense and private and industrial security. The product range includes duty pistol and revolvers, submachine guns, assault rifles, riot gear and ballistic body protection. TAURUS products are designed to meet the required standards in many different markets around the world. More than 70 countries rely on Taurus quality
TAURUS quality is recognized all over the world. Besides carrying ISO-9001:2000 certification and being approved by the underwriters Laboratories (UL) in the United States, Taurus has also earned RWTÜV (Rheinisch Westfälischer Technischer Überwachungs-Verein e V. Essen, Germany) certification.
The greatest challenge of Taurus is to make innovation and to improve constantly their products. Whatever the solution, the goal is always the same: ensure high levels of durability, agility and comfort for Taurus products and most importantly, the safety of their users.
The Taurus security system is one of the best in the world. Taurus developed an exclusive locking mechanism that prevents the weapon from operating without the user’s authorization. Taurus has added external manual locks and an automatic firing pin lock to several models.
