Taurus may be on to something here

I have flat .45s that are that thin. For a .380, I'll stick with my Kel-Tec P3AT.

Guns and Ammo has threatened to sue over this guy's review.

TAURUS TURD: Guns & Ammo loves Taurus’ new Taurus Curve, a curved .380 pocket pistol


This new gun isn’t innovative.
Instead, it’s dangerous. It’s a gimmick. It’s got the potential to get you sued or killed.

...Taurus recommends just slipping it in your pants Mexican-style. Oy....
...It’s also unsafe in the sense that it has no iron sights. None. It’s got a (non-intuitively activated) laser and a flashlight, so you can waste precious time activating and the locating the laser on the bad-guy’s shirt (assuming it’s not bright sunlight and he’s wearing dark clothing) before pulling the trigger....
...Despite all these obvious shortcomings, Guns and Ammo wrote a glowing review about Taurus’ new turd....

I can see having a curved gun, but it needs sights. They could have put a slot/grove sight. I also didn't see an active or passive safety.
For a right handed shooter, the curve is the opposite of what would be intuitive, IMO

Did this ever go anywhere?

No clue, never seen one or known anyone who owned one.

It's out there. I haven't been curious enough to look into it further.

There are several on Gunbroker from $275-450.

Finally! Now I don't have to do THIS to curve the trajectory of the bullet!

Just what the world needs, another friggin' "gimmick" gun. Pass.

If I decide to get another .380 it'll be the new Rock Island Baby Rock, or maybe that new Browning .380, something 1911-ish. Meanwhile, my Bersa works just fine.
