Another ridiculous Revolver from Taurus

Well, at least we have something different from them...

At least it's not like we're dreading the 100th anniversary of a certain model of pistol waiting for crap to appear from the vestiges of a formerly great firearms kingdom. :rolleyes: *blech*

Taurus has some great minds behind their marketing, IMHO- whereas company "C"....well...

this is quite the utility revolver that fills many applications. i say Bravo to Taurus because i know damn well if it was made by s&w even with the built in lock folks here would step on their own schwantz to get one.

carry on.
 
I have but one question:

WHY????

why indeed...why not??? Something I think I'm quite well qualified to comment on...

I've always liked the unusual. When we were allowed pistols here in the UK, I bought a FA 454 Premier Grade in 1992. Offhand, I can recall at least 2 instances of people saying "what's the point?" or stuff to that effect, even though it did have its uses for long range pistol disciplines (we don't have bears in the UK!). These people, together with the .22 target pistol shooters who sneered at other types of handgun, now, can't shoot any modern (post WW2?)cartridge firing handgun other than tandem air cartridge pistols which aren't really worth the hassle of a UK firearm certificate...

I've been waiting for Uberti to make a .44mag/20ga. centerfire version of the LeMat.
 
actually I would like one to try my hand at squirrel hunting with pistol, the .410 would be interesting enough, now add the pistol concept to it.
it actually sounds fun
 
there have been 45-70 handguns around for quite a while. thankfully, not built by the raging bull.
 
Well, say what you want, from a business stand point, Taurus has a hit on their hands. The Judge line sells like hot cakes. Don't be surprised when S&W wheels out their own version. Money loves company.

Magnum Research has a 45/410 revolver; I think it is single action only. The quality is so much better than Taurus, and it has a price to show for it.
 
Class III, I've seen the black powder versions, I want something that will take metallic cartridges and modern shotshells. Although making a revolver with a shotgun barrel in the middle of the cylinder that fired them would require the gun to be a bigger monster than the LeMat was.
 
IMHO, TAURUS HANDGUNS ARE JUNK ! !

Can you quantify for us, why exactly they are junk? I mean, I don't know anything about anything and I don't own a Taurus but I sure would like to know for future avoidance what makes them so junk that they elicit an all caps response.

Thanks,
Brett
 
Why does that remind me of that little derringer that freedom arms made? Just a 100 Xs bigger!
 
I had a chance to fire a Judge once with .410 shells. Kind of neat in a way, but not my cup of tea. A model 10 with shot shells works just as well at snake range. Anyway, I've had two Taurus hand guns and wish I still had one of them. The PT-92 that I had some 15 years ago was pretty darn good for the money.
 
Taurus makes ugly revolvers? Seen a recent S&W catalog? Model 500, 460, the 8 shot spacegun with rails all over it?

Current production S&W fans might want to think twice before casting those stones. Glass houses and all that. Regards 18DAI.
