Taurus Judge 45 Colt / 410 Bore 6.5" 5 Rd DA/SA - Compact Frame - New

The Taurus Judge revolutionized the revolver market when it was introduced in 2006, offering shooters an unprecedented dual-caliber capability that bridges the gap between handgun and shotgun. Designed and manufactured by Taurus International, this innovative revolver earned its name from the judges and law enforcement officers who adopted it for courtroom protection and personal defense, recognizing the devastating versatility of a firearm that could chamber both .45 Colt cartridges and .410 bore shotshells without any modification or cylinder swap. Nearly two decades later, the Judge remains one of Taurus's best-selling and most iconic revolvers, with over a dozen models available to suit every need.

What makes the Judge truly special is its versatility in ammunition selection. Load it with .410 shotshells for devastating close-range stopping power with a wide spread pattern, perfect for home defense scenarios where shot placement under stress is critical. Switch to .45 Colt ammunition for serious knock-down power at longer distances with the precision of a traditional revolver cartridge. The Judge's specially-designed rifling has been expertly tuned by Taurus engineers to effectively spread shotshell patterns at close quarters while still guiding .45 Colt bullets accurately to the target. This 6.5" barrel model offers extended sight radius and improved accuracy over shorter-barreled variants, making it ideal for ranch use, trail carry, or extended-range defensive applications. The fiber optic front sight paired with a fixed rear sight provides fast target acquisition in any lighting condition.

Built on Taurus's proven DA/SA (Double-Action/Single-Action) platform, this Judge offers shooters the choice between rapid double-action fire for quick defensive situations or precise single-action trigger control when accuracy is paramount. The 5-round cylinder provides ample capacity for most defensive encounters, and the compact frame design keeps the revolver manageable despite its impressive firepower. Constructed from durable stainless steel with a matte finish, this Judge is built to withstand the elements and provide reliable service for decades. The comfortable Ribber grip ensures solid purchase and recoil control even when firing full-power .45 Colt loads or .410 shells. At 12.5 inches overall length and weighing 32 ounces, it strikes an excellent balance between portability and shootability.

This is a brand new example of the legendary Taurus Judge in the popular 6.5" barrel configuration, offering maximum versatility for home defense, property protection, trail carry, or recreational shooting. Whether you're looking for a bedside defender that can throw a cloud of shot or a powerful trail gun that can handle both snakes and larger threats, the Judge delivers unmatched flexibility. With nearly 20 years of proven performance and millions of satisfied owners worldwide, the Taurus Judge has earned its place as an American defensive firearm icon.
