My duty weapon was a Taurus PT-92 Stainless. Great gun. I put 25,000 rounds through it at least without a problem.

the judge is HUGE!

but honestly a 410 shell is only going to be useful for a snake gun

and you can get satisfactory shotshells for most pistol calibers for dispatching snakes.

I do like taurus pistols though. the judge is just a bit impractical

A friend of mine was a Navy Seal in Vietnam they made one of these out of a flare gun with a reinforced barrel....
you just point and shoot no thinking or aiming required.

Well I for one would not want to be shot with a 4-10! I know people that have killed dear with 4-10 slugs. And with 2/0 shot, a 4-10 would kill yo ***. Plus if you are not a good shot with a pistol, the buckshot spread would really increase your chances of hitting at least something. The 4-10 is not just good for snakes!
I think it would be a very useful weapon for some people!

410 slug packs less punch than the equivalent cased round out of a pistol due to the short barrel.

410's can and have killed people, but that has been out of a full length barrel, there is no point in using a 410 slug in a gun that can take the more powerful round. the only purpose is to have the shot. 410 buck shot is like 3 pellets of 00.

fun toy, maybe a good saddle gun for a cowboy who wants both snakeshot and a powerful pistol round.

not practical for home defense

that and some really close birds is abotu all it is good for out of a short rifled barrel. the sprial effect combined with the short barrel results in a low velocity and a very fast spread in a circular pattern rather than a nice even spread over the blast area.

Well, if I was a car jacker, I would not want to get hit in the chest by 410 shot. I bet I would leave real fast with a bloody chest!
