Prototype: "Roy Bean"



Do want, even if just for the novelty value.

Here's a video from Taurus with it in action.

I'm not sure about how well the .410 shot-shells would stack up against a comparable sidearm in .40SW or .45ACP at varying distances, but it'd be a hoot to try out.

Awesome.

It's like having an illegal shotgun in a legal format.

The video is based on vehicle defense, so I'm guessing it was designed to be a shotgun for the car, but in a convenient revolver package. At short ranges like in that scenario, I think I'll take the Judge over a .40 or .45 any day.

Yeah, that's where I'm leaning, I'm just wary about only having five rounds.

Paranoid, yeah, but it's served me pretty well so far. I suppose one could pack both, though.
