I Carry: Taurus GX4 Carry 9 mm Pistol in a PHLster Floodlight2 Holster

PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE In this week's episode of "I Carry," we have the new Taurus GX4 Carry 9 mm pistol in a PHLster Floodlight2 holster along with a Holosun HS507K X2 red-dot sight and a SureFire X300 Turbo weaponlight. When we reviewed the original Taurus GX4 back in 2021, we had an inkling that the little pistol from Taurus was only the start of a family of pistols. Even before the article was published, Taurus had added the optics-capable GX4 T.O.R.O. variant, and in short order launched the GX4XL that offered a slightly longer slide. The latest sibling in the GX4 family is the subject of today’s kit, the new GX4 Carry, which keeps the longer slide of the GX4XL and adds an extended grip section that expands magazine capacity to 15 rounds. It follows a trend of small guns that got bigger: the GX4 Carry has a 3.7-inch barrel, 6.6-inch overall length, 5.2-inch height and 21.5-ounce weight, compared to the standard GX4 which has a 3.1-inch barrel, 6.1-inch overall length, 4.4-inch height and 18.5-ounce weight. Half-an-inch longer, three-quarters of an inch taller and 3 ounces heavier, and you gain four rounds? That’s not a bad tradeoff. Again, a lot of it boils down to the addition of an optic: once a dot has been added to the pistol’s slide, it’s no longer serving as a pocket-carry option. It’s going into a holster carried on the belt, at which point there’s little reason not to have a grip you can get all three fingers on. The GX4 Carry comes standard with Taurus’ T.O.R.O. optics cut, which allows RMSc- and 507K-footprint optics to be mounted directly to the slide. For RMSc-footprint optics, two removable pins fit in pre-drilled holes to complete the footprint, while 507K-footprint optics just bolt right on. It’s simple, easy and requires little more than a T15 Torx wrench, although having something like the Fix-It Sticks Torque driver and/or some Loctite isn’t a bad idea, either. Taurus’s instructions, either in the manual that comes with the gun or through Taurus’s website, are excellent, giving the screw thread pitch and type as well as recommended torque. Again, much like the Hellcat and Hellcat Pro or P365/P365 Macro, there’s a natural primary/secondary relationship between the GX4 Carry and standard GX4. The magazines for the GX4 Carry will fit in the GX4, although obviously the 15-round variants will extend past the grip of the standard GX4. Carry the GX4 in the warmer months or when deep concealment is needed; have the GX4 Carry in the cooler months with proper cover garments. The GX4 Carry yields another option, and that’s always a good thing.
