Note: the frame material, rail type, trigger weight and manufacturer warranty terms were not published for this exact variant by the sources available at the time of writing, so they have not been stated. Taurus lists the PT917 specifications for the 917 Compact, and the rail and two-magazine package come from your product listing. The newer Taurus 917C is a related model with an 18 round capacity, slightly different weight and width figures and a Picatinny rail, so its figures have not been used. Please confirm the finish, rail and magazine count with your supplier before publishing.
