Have you guys seen this beauty?? Maybe this is old news, but I saw this in a magazine I bought, and I fell in love. http://www.taurususa.com/images/imag...-410L1side.jpg This is a revolver that fires both 45 AND 410 shotgun shells. OMG. I love it. Quote:

Capable of chambering both .410 2-1/2" shotshell and .45 Colt Ammunition, this amazing combo gun is ideal for short distances - where most altercations occur, or longer distances with the .45 Colt ammo. We have finely tuned the rifling to spread the shot pattern at close quarters or to guide the .45 cal. bullet to the target. Fully customized with fixed rear sights, fiber optic front sights and Taurus Ribber Grips�, the "Taurus Judge" is one decision-maker that lays down the law.

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? 1 Attachment(s) http://www.impactguns.com/store/744253000140.html How about this......... The NAA Companion is a percussion (cap & ball) .22 caliber five shot revolver, engineered by the legendary gun designer, Dick Casull. The Companions use a #11 Percussion Cap and FFFFH or Pyrodex powder. The Super Companion is compatible with the grips, holsters and other accessories for the NAA .22 Magnum Mini-Revolver. Both models use .22 Caliber Cap & Ball bullets, available from NAA (see below). As with NAA's other Mini-Revolvers, the Companion employs the same precision design. The Companion is made in America, utilizing surgical-quality stainless steel. Each revolver package includes: 50 - 30 gr lead bullets Powder charge measure (yellow scoop) Bullet seater 5 bullet nipples (already installed in cylinder) Allen wrench for bullet nipples Open holster with belt clip Lockable gun rug (lined pouch) Small padlock with NAA Logo

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? Actually, I believe that came up in a discussion about a week ago. It's also commonly referred to as 'snakeshot'. I know a couple of guys who're less than accepting of our legless bretheren and keep a gun loaded with it on themselves at all times when out and about on their properties.

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? The Judge really is not that great a revolver. accuracy from .45 colt is mediocre. Great snake gun, that's about it though. Ol' painless puts it through it's paces over on box 'o truth: http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot41.htm

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? Well, I'm not into guns yet, and in Canada they don't "allow" handguns, so I've never seen a pistol that fires shotgun shells before. How common are they? (Shotgun pistols, I mean) Are there a bunch of different manufacturers?? I assumed the Taurus was the first.

Heh, we bring guns in for show-and-tell where I work. Then again, the business is owned by a libertarian. :wink:

I was shooting with a friend last weekend who had one. The 410 shells he shot expanded and had to be "pressed" out (could have been cheap ammo). And he couldn't shoot 410 slugs or buck shot through it. It seems they taper out at the bottom and won't fit into the chamber. MKS.

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? Is this the first pistol to shoot shotgun shells, or no?

K.I.S.S............. a .22 repeater (bunnies, grouse, deer, squirrels, etc) and a 12 gauge (moose, deer, ducks, turkeys, bears, pe@ple, etc.). 2 firearms vs. 1......defense in depth/redundancy. Easily available and relatively cheap ammo. Ease of use, easy to learn how to use. Also, a .22 cal with low velocity shorts makes a very low noise discharge to keep a low profile.

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? Wakeness: No it is not the first. there have been 2 barrel derringer style pistols for at least a hundred years in that chambering.

Re: Have you guys seen this beauty?? Thanks for the answer. I don't know squat about guns.
