    I don't like it. A Judge with only 1 shot and a 9 inch barrel.

    Is it rifled or smoothbore? Smooth will suck for .45LC at range and rifled will suck for shot, unless you like doughnut shaped shot patterns, I think.

    I don't see anything this gun does better than anything else. The only slot i see this filling perfectly is the empty placeholder slot in a gun safe.

    On second thought, I guess it would be useful for handgun hunting in .45 Colt, with the rail for a reflex optic. It does have a rifled barrel, so it's gonna really spray a wide shot pattern at anything other than very close range with .410 ammo, I would guess.

    Years ago I fooled with a TC Contender 45 / 410 with a rifled brl and a screw in choke
    And it didn't do either job well enough for me. Shot made donut patterns and the 45 Colt slugs were not too accurate.
    I hope your result are better than mine

    Just got this thing today and its raining so I wasn't out long. Couldn't find any .410, but put 15 rounds of LC through it. Took a bit to get it sighted and it shoots a hair high, but was able to blow up a coke can at 25 yds. Its a hoot to shoot. Kinda makes me want to get into percussion cap.

    Looks pretty cool!

    So that's what they're calling it now?
    I have basically the same thing in a Rossi matched pistol pair.
    Mine has the same .45/.410 barrel and I think it is 9" long.
    Where mine differs is that I also have a .22lr barrel that will swap in seconds with no tools.
