For snakes, yeah, ok, but you can get snakeshot for almost any revolver. Those revolvers are better as regular revolvers too.

Really? What makes you an expert?

Yes, I have a Judge. I have dispatched ~10 rattlesnakes this year alone. I carry my EDC AND the Judge when working on my property. I do not wish to have to remember to change the ammo in my EDC every time I leave the property or come back.

Why are all other revolvers better than the Judge? Since you apparently claim to be an expert in ballistics, how is a .45 round coming out of any other revolver superior to the Judge? I would really like to know as it my change my opinion of the Judge. THANKS!

PONED! This is going to be fun. I hope he has the courage to come back and defend his assertions.

I don't own either revolver. I can see the usefulness, but I just don't feel a pressing need for one, and I don't have the collector's itch to buy one. What I found remarkable is that, for once, S&W is imitating Taurus, instead of the other way around, which seems to be the norm.

i8godzilla didn't read my whole post (I said they were good for snakes), now you want to egg on a fight. No thanks.

If anyone thinks I'm wrong, go ahead and post your ballistics. Any other .45 LC revolver you want versus the huge heavy "Judge", don't forget the wasted freebore before the slug hits the barrel, and see if there's any advantage to a thicker longer 5-shot instead of a more compact 6 shot firing the same round.

No .410 shell out of a 3 inch barrel is worth spit except against snakes and critters at less than 10' range. Show me your ballsitics if you think I'm wrong.

Or just go look at the Big Box O Truth site, they have a whole section about the Judge and .410 revolver.

I don't mean so insult anybody but I think most people who buy this gun for defense against people instead of snakes are just living in a fantasy that it's the same as a handheld 12 gauge. It's not.

"Who's the buyers?"

1. suckers
2. people who don't understand ballistics.
