Taurus G3 1-G3B949-10 | 9mm | 4″ Barrel

The Taurus G3 is a full-size, polymer-frame 9mm pistol fitted with a 4.00″ stainless steel barrel and a matte stainless slide over a black polymer frame. It ships with two magazines and features an integrated Picatinny rail, serrated drift-adjustable rear sight and a fixed white-dot front sight. The controls include a manual safety and a striker-fired system designed for a smooth take-up and short reset.

For a compact red-dot option under $1,000 that pairs well for range use, consider the Vortex Venom 3 MOA reflex sight mounted with an appropriate adapter plate (the slide is not factory-drilled/tapped). Typical applications for the G3 include precision range training and service-style competition where a full-size grip and sight radius are beneficial.
