Today’s column is going to cover a revolver called Taurus 4510 The Judge. It is chambered for .45 long colt cartridges or 410 shotgun shells. I like it due to being able to conceal something that chambers not one but five 2 1/2in. shotgun shells. Taurus makes another model that chambers 3 in. shells or 45 long colt cartridges. This is a very impressive package.
There are many configurations for this revolver. I thought I would show a couple with specifications that I found most impressive.

This is a fantastic home defense and concealed carry revolver; due to the fact that you have the option of 410 shot shells or .45 long colt ammunition. I have done an extensive amount of research on this weapon and found it suitable for many situations.
For regular concealed carry the 45 long colt cartridges have enough stopping power to handle any threat. An additional twist is loading the weapon with 000 buckshot 410 shells. Using either ammo The Judge is perfect for home or personal defense.
