Talk:Taurus Judge

I hate the commercial on the Outdoor Channel in which a lady draws her Taurus Judge from her purse as two muggers close in on her. We hear "Lets get her.", and then see five watermelons blow up and desintegrate when hit by the fearsome 3" Magnum 410 rounds. I promise you guys if I get my hands on a Judge in the future (very likely too, my Dad has a customer ordering one), I'll tape that commercial, and then shoot watermelons with 410 and .45 LC rounds and put this gun in its place (maybe make a youtube video. The best title I can think of is "Jury duty for the JUDGE"). Keep in mind the Thunder 5 offered the same thing 10 years ago and there is a reason no one was impressed or owns them in vast numbers today. Like mentioned in the article, the long cylinder/short barrel makes the .45 LC inaccurate and the rifling spins the shot pattern to give it horrible accuracy poor for more than 10 yards. If for some reason you would want to own this gun as a concealed carry weapon (despite its weight and bulky length), load two 410s in first and then 3 .45 LCs. This way, you can use your scatter shot to fire quickly in the panic of a fire fight, but as you focus, you can hit them with the .45s (which are more powerful). Or you can buy a smaller .45 only revolver and save time, money, and space. - Gunmaster45
