The Taurus G2c and G3c are great guns at the same price point. We have Glocks and Sigs that perform no better.
I recently picked up a g3c for kicks. It was on sale. The pistol is pretty rough around the edges and can't really hold a candle to my shield.
Here are some issues after about 4 hundred rds. A rough and unpolished feed ramp. The pistol shoots waaaaaaay low. The travel in the trigger is so long, I sometimes think I'm having a failure to fire. As if to say, "why hasn't this pistol fired yet"? I then realize I haven't reached the break point in the trigger.
In the 450 rds, it failed battery 3 times, using 115gr cci ammo and steel. Failed to eject a spent brass casing twice and failed to lock back once on the last round. It had zero issues however with limited and mixed jhp ammo.
Anyway, there ya have it. You get what you pay for. After my experience with lesser brand pistolas like canik and taurus, I've finally learned my lesson.

My 20 by year old Taurus 38 is pretty good but it was made int the old brazil Smith & Wesson factory.

I sold my Shield because I had big headaches with it. Mushy trigger pull and both fail to feed and fail to eject with various factory ammo, Traded it for a new G3c at a gun show and got $50. plus the gun with three magazines. Waiting for the first malfunction, all three magazines work perfectly though hard to get the last few rounds in. Fit and finish are every bit as good as the Shield, accuracy excellent and the trigger is better than the Shield. In fact the Shield was one of my greatest disappointments in a semi auto handgun to date. Is it possible you got one of the earlier version of the G3c?
