The PT 101 P denotes the railed-frame configuration, and this example has an integral dustcover rail with a single visible cross-slot for mounting compatible accessories. The open-top slide and falling locking-block system echo the proven 92-pattern design while retaining Taurus-specific controls and markings.
The pistol runs a short-recoil, DA/SA action with a frame-mounted manual safety and a spurred hammer. Sights include a fixed front blade integral to the slide and a fully adjustable micrometer-style rear unit with UP/R index markings for precise elevation and windage adjustments.
Construction features a forged aluminum-alloy frame and a matte black finish throughout, paired with black checkered polymer grip panels bearing Taurus medallions. The 5-inch barrel and approximately 8.5-inch overall length balance sight radius and controllability in a full-size format.
Markings include FORJAS TAURUS S.A. • MADE IN BRAZIL and TAURUS • MIAMI, FL. • INT. MFG. INC., confirming Brazilian manufacture and import by Taurus International in Miami.
The included 16-round steel magazine has witness holes at 4–8–12–16, matching the pistol’s 16+1 capacity in .40 S&W.
