Can you quail hunt with it?
Oh boy... In his first few sentences he says how “cool” it is; wonders how much “kick” it has; and says he just got it.
Soon after shooting a piece of wood, he also declares that any intruder so hit would “definitely be going down”. Wow.
Sorry, “dude”... (or is it “bro”?) I’ve read numerous well-executed ballistics tests of the Judge, all of which showed it it to be a poorly-performing, overhyped gun, at least for self-defense.
This is the first time I have heard it describes as accurate. My ten year old wanted me to get one because he uses one in his XBox game.
“It shoots through schools.”
I cannot recommend this gun enough for home defense/car jacking. My wife was not comfortable around guns and was blasting away like Annie Oakley after 10 minutes at the range. She is very uncomfortable with Glocks etc...loves the wheel gun. Alas we live in Jersey and can’t bring it with us during our travels throughout Joisey. However, it is nice knowing I have backup if someone breaks in.
I am not a fan, but there is little doubt it has been a wildly successful firearm due to the unique characteristics.
I have put about 40 rounds through it - both shotgun and pistol and it does not seem to do either very well. It has a brutal trigger out of the box and the ergonomics make it an unlikely choice for carry.
The one role where it has an argument is last ditch home defense (nightstand gun) weapon. However, there is only ONE firearm to possess to protect the interior of your home and that is full sized shotgun. My load of choice is non-magnum #4 shot.
No thanks, I prefer this pistol.
Well, I sure hope it’s better than the .380 semi piece-o-junk I finally got rid of.
There are a lot of people who shoot the Bond Arms derringers as well as the Judge accurately. They are surprisingly accurate.
And a real blast to shoot at the range. One of the real fun guns.
It’s better than the Gyrojet and Dardick... and that’s all I’m going to say.
Does it have the shoulder thing that goes up?
It is not really a new gun. Back in the late 1960s one of the gun magazines had an article about a gunsmith who took two 1917 Colt pistols, cut the frames and cylinders and silver soldered them back together as on pistol that would fire the .410. He even registered it with the ATF as were the rules back then.
As far as I am concerned, he took two perfectly good 1917 pistols and ruined them, but back then 1917 pistols were flooding the market before 1968.
