G43 here also, currently looking at a Bersa BPCC9 and a sig P365 (soon as one comes into the shop).
I liked the shield before I bought my g43, I will have to check out the Taurus.
The big thing for me was that the pt111 is 12+1
I liked the shield but the g43 was a little shorter which is why I went with it. I understand the mag point but it doesn't make any weight in my decision as I wouldn't carry a small pistol with a long fullsize mag in it. I do agree though the shield is a fine weapon and I wouldn't hesitate to buy one.
Shot one lately? Bought mine in 2017 and Im over 1000 rounds in with no jams. Everyone that I have talked to that has one loves it and has had no or only a couple jams. If you dont own and regularly shoot something, dont knock it. Thats why youll never hear me bashing something. A lot has changed with taurus over the last 5-10 years. Get online and lookup some reviews or go look on TFF and other forums, or better yet, go shoot one!
Ever been president? A cop? Then you have no right to criticize them with that logic.

Yes, in face I HAVE shot Taurus' in the last year. New ones. One of my best friends is a sold out fanboy who also gets MAJOR butthurt when I tell him I don't like em
Oh, incidentally, he had to have his 45 professionally smithed because that bastard jammed a bullet in the barrel so hard no tools We had would free it
Doesnt affect me. Like I said, carry what ya like. Im just pointing out the fact that the company aint what it used to be and the new pistols are a good option for a gun to bet your life on. Your opinion is just like mine, and we all know what they equate toHow does MY experience and opinion effect YOU
You're taking this way too seriously as if I personally offended you. The next step is you'll bring out the old phrase "straw man argument "and spent hours trying to debunk what is essentially just my opinion. You don't wanna be that guy do you? we already have one of those here
. However, if you wanna get together and shoot to compare pistols, I could always use a new shooting buddy 
I try not to pass judgement on products even if bad experiences take HF for example, bc honestly some companies do attempt to make a better quality item after failure and they notice a problem! I found a indoor range that'll rent guns so I'm planning on making a trip there to shoot multiple pistols in feb As of now I'll be spending as much on a gun rental as I do buying one hahaha! But I've got 5 in mind I'm really set on 4 were mentioned in this thread that I hadn't considered! So even tho I have to decide which suits me personally y'all def have helped me move in the right direction and I appreciate it more than ya know bc I'm my mind set this is my family's protection first and fore most! I remember when all my buddies started buying compacts and I still had full frame 1911 I swore I'd never "need" one but it's a day and age when ppl panic when they see someone with a pistol on their hip or seeing profilectheoufh clothes and the idiots I've encountered that see your pistol when you don't want and then ask to see it and shit lol I just look at them in disbelief usually and ask if they have had weapons training of any kind, then politely say no my weapons not for show and tell an have a nice day! The best tho is when in gun stores and these younger generation feel the need to pull out their loaded pistol to show off to the clerk... smdh In defense of Taurus I've also seen multiple Springfield .45s with jamming issues and shield45 Springfield and s&w makes good shit as everyone knows I feel like most of it's due to mag spring or ammunition used tho I know the Taurus I've shot would not eject low quality rounds at all but that was in 2003 also...
