THE PATENT ON STI 2011 GUNS RUNS OUT NOVEMBER OF THIS YEAR.

TAURUS IS BUT ONE OF MANY GUN MFGs THAT WILL BE BUILDING DOUBLE STACK 2011 STYLE GUNS.

PRICES WILL WELL BELOW THOSE OF STI.

Given what passes as QC at Taurus, it may be less expensive, but it will not be a true 2011/SVI.

I have a couple of Taurus guns (revolvers) that are already out of time with less than 100 rounds through them, and all Taurus would say was that they do not cover the use of handloads....

Given that most, if not all, STI/SVI guns are used in IPSC competition with hot loads to make major PF, you had better be pretty sure just what you are after before you get one.
