Know a bit about this topic, ok maybe more than a bit. Can't carry though seeings how IL is the only state to not have a CCW law. Anyway, the Taurus is probably fine but you may want to check a few other options. The Ruger SR9C and LC9 are in this category. If I were prone to carry, and frankly if I thought I really needed to in order to protect myself or my family I would permit or not, I'd go with my Springfield Armory XD 9 Subcompact. Lotta folks like Glock 26s as well.
