I would rather carry my Beretta 85FS with 8+1 capacity than a Taurus. I am not surprised that you are having rust issues, accuracy issues, and cartridge ejection issues with this gun.

My Beretta Cheetah costs more than a Taurus, but it is easier to conceal, it is extremely accurate, ejects the cartridge in the same direction every time, and despite living in a hot and humid climate I have never developed any rust issues.

I may not like some pistols such as Glocks and most Rugers, but their performance and reliability commands respect from me. However, I can't say the same about Taurus. I'm sorry but that's the way I feel.
