For that price it would be a very good buy. I have Taurus PT -145, and the 24/7 has the same guts. Taurus gets a bad rap and in some cases for good reason. I have three Taurus's and good luck with all. A .22 Tracker with a 6.5" barrel.......that has a great trigger and tremendous accuracy. It likes to make S&W K22 owners feel guilty about all the extra money they spent to come in second place at the range! Also have a model 44 in .44mag that is nice as well, though it has not seen a lot of abuse yet.
My PT 145 has served me well, only stovepiping twice and both times it was with the same aftermarket Pro Mag magazine....they are cheap mags. The DOA trigger is tough to get used to, and there is not much you can do with it to make it better. It is manageable, but it takes time to master. The 24/7 trigger is the same. The one negative about this gun, field stripping it and re assembling it is a royal pain in the ass! Not bad once you learn the tricks, but still difficult compared to others.
I think the 24/7 with a light attachment and high capacity mag would make a great home defense gun. Honestly though, if you need that many rounds, you're most likely in more trouble than you can handle!
Another gun to consider with the light rail and high capacity is the Springfield XD line of guns...an import that is every bit as good as glock for a couple of bills less. I've seen them for $429 and right now, I believe they are giving away two free high capacity mags and a concealed paddle holster with purchase....pretty good deal.
