The TX22 Competition configuration centers on a 5.25-inch fixed bull barrel for stability and consistency, with a 1/2x28 threaded muzzle for compatible accessories. The optics interface plate is mounted to the barrel and accepts multiple footprints, keeping the optic fixed relative to the barrel during cycling.
The hard-anodized aluminum slide is skeletonized with top and side windows to reduce reciprocating mass. Sighting is via a 3-dot set with an adjustable rear sight and a tall front blade, providing a clear, usable sight picture out of the box.
The pistol uses a blowback, striker-fired, single-action-only system with a crisp trigger, a left-side magazine release, and both a trigger safety and ambidextrous manual safety. The polymer frame includes a Picatinny accessory rail with two slots on the dustcover for lights or other compatible accessories.
Ergonomics include a textured polymer grip with the Taurus bull logo molded into the grip surface. Capacity is 16+1 with three included magazines. Dimensions are approximately 8.21 inches in overall length, 5.44 inches in height, and 1.25 inches in width, with a weight of about 23.2 ounces.
This example is marked Bainbridge, GA, and corresponds to Taurus part number 1-TX22C151, aligning with the TX22 Competition series and full-size format.
