The Judge and .380 craze are a disservice foisted off on novice gun buyers in a quest for the almighty dollar. Sad day for S&W to be jumping on this bandwagon, the public would be much better served if they would go in the direction of the Ruger LCR and come out with a good really small 9mm. And why are they still putting lock in their revolvers?
Toss into that pool are the novice's that think they will be better protected with a weapon that holds say 16-20 rounds as compared to say 6-7.
