Lot 600:
Description
The lot consists of one Taurus G3c semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum. This sub-compact handgun features a 3.2-inch stainless steel barrel and a polymer frame designed for concealed carry. The slide is finished in a matte black coating and features front and rear cocking serrations. The polymer frame includes aggressive stippling on the grip panels and an integrated accessory rail currently fitted with a Holosun brand weapon-mounted light and laser unit. Sights consist of a fixed front blade and a drift-adjustable rear notch. Key markings include the model designation G3c 9×19 on the right side of the slide, TAURUS and BAINBRIDGE, GA on the left side of the slide, and TAURUS ARMAS MADE IN BRAZIL on the right side of the frame. The serial number 1KA11308 is clearly marked on a metal insert on the right side of the frame. Included with the pistol is one 12-round magazine featuring a black metal body, yellow follower, and polymer base plate with witness holes at the 6 and 12-round positions. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The pistol slide exhibits significant surface oxidation and active rust concentrated within the rear cocking serrations, with minor pitting likely present beneath the rust. The remaining matte finish shows general handling marks and light holster wear. The polymer frame is in good condition with minor scuffs and some dirt accumulation within the stippled grip areas. The 12-round magazine shows patches of surface rust on the metal body. The bore was not inspected, and while the action appears to function correctly when cycled manually, the firearm has not been function-tested for live fire. The Holosun accessory appears securely mounted; its battery status and electronic function were not tested.
