Lot 1557:
Description
This lot features a Taurus G3C striker-fired semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9mm. Designed as a compact polymer-framed handgun, it features a 3.26-inch barrel and a matte black finished steel slide. The black polymer frame is equipped with textured grip panels and an integrated accessory rail on the dust cover for the attachment of tactical lights or lasers. Sighting is handled by a fixed three-dot system with a single white dot on the front sight blade. The pistol incorporates several safety mechanisms including a manual thumb safety, a trigger safety blade, and a loaded chamber indicator. Verbatim markings on the left side of the slide include TAURUS and BAINBRIDGE, GA. The right side of the slide is marked G3C 9×19 and bears the serial number ACH160324. This serial number is consistently marked on the barrel hood, a metal plate on the right side of the frame, and the underside of the frame forward of the trigger guard. The frame is further marked TAURUS ARMAS and MADE IN BRAZIL. Included with the firearm are two 10-round magazines with yellow followers, a spare magazine baseplate, and the original factory cardboard box. Please note that while the factory box label indicates a three-magazine set, one magazine is missing from this lot as only two are present. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The slide retains nearly all of its matte black finish with only minor thinning at the high edges. The polymer frame is in excellent condition with no significant scuffs and crisp texturing on the grip panels. The barrel hood shows minor mechanical wear consistent with light cycling of the action. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The included magazines and factory box are in good to excellent condition.
