Am getting a Taurus PT945SS with a 4" barrel for CCW. My 1911 colt GC w/5" barrel shoots everything, including +P loads, well. Any recommendations for do's or don't's on ammo for the Taurus?

Generally 4 versus 5 makes no difference. with any new gun you have to make sure it feeds the ammo you want to use, particularly for a self defense gun | |||

This is true. Reliability is #1. You can expect about 30fps drop from the 5", not enough to matter. LIFE IS NOT A SPECTATOR'S SPORT! | |||

and a slight ammount more muzzle flash. not that the 45ACP is known for a big flash... Not like a 10mm anyway  AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!
