Manufacturer: Taurus Type: Pistol Model: PT709 Caliber: 9MM Barrel Length: 3" Optics: N/A ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 2488 S/N: TFR02880 Ref #: N/A Notes: The Taurus PT709 Slim is a compact, striker-fired semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9mm, designed for concealed carry and personal defense. Part of Taurus’s Slim Series, the PT709 offers a streamlined profile, lightweight construction, and user-friendly ergonomics—all within a reliable and affordable platform. This example, serial number TFR02880, features a 3-inch barrel and an overall length of approximately 6.25 inches. It has a polymer frame with molded texturing for improved grip and a matte-finished steel slide. The PT709 operates on a short-recoil system with a single-action striker trigger that includes a second-strike capability, enhancing reliability in the event of a misfire. Standard features include low-profile three-dot sights, a manual thumb safety, and a trigger safety. Chambered in 9mm Luger, the PT709 typically achieves muzzle velocities between 1,100 and 1,200 feet per second depending on the ammunition used. The pistol was originally designed with a 7-round flush-fitting magazine, but this example includes an oversized aftermarket or extended-capacity magazine, offering additional rounds at the expense of concealability. This pistol is in fair condition, showing scattered cosmetic wear throughout the slide and frame from regular use. The external finish shows light handling marks and surface wear, though the pistol remains fully functional. The action cycles smoothly, and all safety features are intact. Compact and practical, the Taurus PT709 Slim remains a popular choice for concealed carry and backup roles, and this example—despite its cosmetic wear—offers continued utility with the added capacity of an extended magazine.
