SOME OF THE ZIPPERS ON THE SOFT CASES MIGHT BE MISSING THE "PULL PART" OF THE ZIPPER.
Here's the scoop on these Tara TM-9 pistols.
This batch of pistols was originally sold by Tara to an oversea's entity that agreed NOT to sell this batch into the USA market. To everyone's shock, the purchasing entity sold the pistols to an USA importer who was not aware of this agreement and imported them in. When received, the importer sold the entire batch to Gander Outdoors who had them inspected by their entity "America's Gunsmith Shop". Gander Outdoors listed them on Gun.deals as "Used Tara TM-9 Pistol, Black, 9mm - $329.99". Here's the link https://gun.deals/product/used-tara-tm-9-pistol-black-9mm-39199.
This is the Description posted by Gander Outdoors.
Professionally inspected at America's Gunsmith Shop!The Tara TM-9 semi-automatic service pistol combines the latest developments and features of cutting edge firearm technology with regards to quality standards, precision, durability, and the strictest safety requirements. The extremely hard and anti-corrosive slide can be disconnected from the polymer lower receiver without the need to pull the trigger. This can be considered an additional passive safety – just like the pistol's ability to allow consecutive striker actions (real double action) without the need to rack the slide.State-of-the-art characteristics like anti-corrosive surface protection, high-capacity double stack magazines, and picatinny rails to mount tactical lights are the answer to the requirements of modern forces. In addition, the TM-9 features an ambidextrous magazine release button and a special lanyard connection point to cover all possible scenarios. The DARE Trigger system allows for fast and simple training of new users and for a smooth transition for those who come from old conventional systems, in order to reach maximum safety and effectiveness with minimum effort and costs.Trigger SystemThe Tara trigger operation is striker-fired and the special DARE System (Double Action Rapid Engagement) resets the firing-pin after a 3mm release of the trigger. This allows fast precision taps after the first round fired in Double Action. The trigger pull of 2.8 kg (6.2 lbs.) is comparably soft for a DA system. There is no need to pull the trigger in order to disassemble the firearm. This helps to prevent accidental discharges during cleaning procedures. Two additional internal safeties include a firing pin safety and a firing pin reset spring.More Features• 22mm Low Bore Axis for felt recoil reduction and fast target acquisition after every round• Barrel and slide are machined from solid stainless steel bars with special surface treatment• Comes with two 17-round magazines with special anti-friction coating for speed and durability• Rigid, ergonomic polymer frame for weight reduction• Steel 3-dot sights• Extended extractor is a visual and tactile chamber indicator• Built-in armorer's tool• Interchangeable grip for adjusting to individual shooter's handSpecificationsCondition: UsedSystem: Double Action Rapid EngagementCaliber: 9 mmLength: 7.4" / 187mmHeight: 5.5" / 139mmWidth: 1.2" / 30mmLine of Sight: 6.5" / 165mmBarrel Length: 4.4" / 113mmRifling: Right 6 GroovesTwist: 9.8" / 250mmMagazine Capacity: 17 RoundsWeight (empty): 26.5 oz. / 750gWeight (loaded): 33.5 oz. / 950gBore Axis: 0.87" / 22mmTrigger Distance Grip: 2.9" / 73mmTrigger Travel: 0.39" / 10mmTrigger Pull: 5.5 - 7.7 lbs. / 2.5 - 3.5 kg

Soon after Gander Outdoors inspects all the firearms and lists them for sale, not much long after Gander Outdoors decides to discontinue firearms. During this same time frame, the manufacturer Tara finds out there batch of pistols has "Landed in America" and now their upset. So what happens next, Gander calls the importer and says we need to return the pistols as we're no longer in the firearms business and at the same time the manufacturer puts out a statement bashing there own product. You cannot make this stuff up... So time passes and the guns sell very slow , the internet guru's do there thing to get attention and the sales on these guns comes to a halt. The importer has sit on these items long enough and decides it's time to call the "STACK'em DEEP and SELL'em CHEAP"guys.
