So far as transfer bars, each their own. Period. Some have no trouble; others like a more period correct approach. Personally I prefer them as well. Safety happens “between the ears” and no mechanism can supplement that but sometimes even I make mistakes and it’s good to know the gun can’t go off unless I’m making a conscious effort to hold that trigger all the way down.
As for the Taurus single action I can’t say but one of my favorite carry guns happens to be an older Rossi (Taurus cheapie) snub in .357 with a transfer bar type hammer stop. Only style of any handgun I’ll carry with a loaded chamber.
I’ll second trouble with the Beretta stampede tho! Had 2 and they were both off time and even my gunsmith told me to move on.
Certainly hope this new Taurus offering will bring another entry level option for new shooters!
