Taurus 917C Reintroduced To The U.S. Market

The Taurus 917C brings a traditional vibe and an 18-round capacity to the United States.

What could possibly surpass the legendary, enduring, and immensely popular Taurus 92? How about a compact iteration boasting an impressive 18-round capacity? Well, it's here – the return of the Taurus 917C to the US consumer market.

Meet The Taurus 917C

Once a beloved favorite among customers, this gun owes its popularity to its compact dimensions, user-friendly shooting characteristics, and a full-length accessory rail. Unlike most compact double-action/single-action semi-automatic pistols, the handgun can accommodate full-size weapon-mounted lights and other accessories. Furthermore, it is fully compatible with all Taurus 92-style magazines.

"I actually had one of the original 917C pistols all those years ago, and I regret selling it,” said Caleb Giddings, General Manager of Marketing for the brand. "I’m a huge fan of traditional double-action semi-autos like the Taurus 92, so bringing back the 917C makes a ton of sense to me. I can’t wait to put some serious rounds downrange out of this."

The brand-new handgun is now available for shipping, with an MSRP set at $599.99.
