It would be a great bedside gun not so sure about shooting a .410 from inside a car.

WOW.

Some Marines have a model similiar to that in addition to a M9. That would surely make a very bad day for a BG.

That is pretty neat....I would not want to own one, BUT I would sure like to shoot one a few times!

I like the product, but I hate the name. I can see a civil lawyer slobbering over the chance to append "... Jury and Executioner" onto it.

Yup!

But I have to wonder if there are half moon or full moon clips available to load .45ACP. :smile:

The recoil looks like a whole lot less than I would have expected.

There were a couple other brands making a .45 Colt/.410.

Yowsers! :shock:

That would produce a mess that I would have no interest or desire in cleaning up. Wow!!!!

New for this year is a model that will accept 3" magnum .410, instead of the 2 1/2" shells used in the original.

Does it only hold two rounds? As fast as those shotgun shells spread out I would expect if your weren't pointing directly out a window that you would have the chance of some ricocheting around the car.

It's a five round revolver.

If you form your own brass .410 shells instead of using plastic shells, you could load them right out to the end of the cylinder. :shock:

Yup,

This what I'd get: http://www.thunder5.com/docs1.html

Put your cursor on the image to view video.

Also, be very careful when using (full) brass cased shells, it seems they have a tendency to "stick" in the chamber.

That Thunder 5 has a shorter barrel, which should lead to quicker shot dispersion.

I wonder if there's anyone with strong enough wrists, or crazy enough,. to run a side by side comparison between the Thunder and the Judge with various ammo.
