It's a great piece, however, it's blast will scare the crap out of both you and any intruder. I kid you not. I was firing mine at the gun range and others were stopping to ask if I was using a .44. Gotta agree with cav68 . . . I use a Browning BPS 12gage pump for home protection.

Are you sure you're not talking about the .44 magnum? Factory .44 Specials are standard pressure rounds that are easy on the shooter, even when used in lightweight revolvers (like the Charter Arms Bulldog).
