Taurus Expands TX9 Line with New Flat Dark Earth Finish

Taurus, a leading manufacturer of reliable, high-quality firearms, is expanding its TX9 pistol line with a new Flat Dark Earth (FDE) finish option.

The TX9 is a duty-rated pistol engineered to endure severe conditions and high round count testing. The new FDE finish is available across the full TX9 lineup — full-size, compact, and sub-compact models — all at a $499.99 MSRP.

Key features of the Taurus TX9 include:

"In a world of flat-black semi-auto pistols, there's something about an FDE finish that just looks awesome," said Caleb Giddings, General Manager of Marketing at Taurus USA. "The TX9 already sets itself apart from the field because of its durability, and with an FDE finish it stands out visually as well."
