Taurus’ Judge revolver (11x3)

:

Taurus’ Judge revolver created an entirely new category of firearm—a .45 Colt revolver that can also shoot .410-bore shotshells. The Judge family has grown to include carbines, compacts and even a polymer-framed version. It turns out the judge is pretty fun on the skeet field, too. Smith & Wesson has expanded its rifle line to include the Military & Police 22, a rifle that looks like an AR, but shoots economical .22 Long Rifle. The adoption of the Colt M1911 wasn’t a sure thing, as the gun the Browning designed pistol had to beat in the U.S. Army’s trials was a .45 ACP made by Savage Arms.
