Taurus Judge Magnum is here:

So today I got my Taurus Judge Magnum with the new 3" chamber. Wow I'm so excited to fire this thing. My first Taurus Judge was the one with 2.5"chamber. My favorite shot shell to fire in this gun is the 2.5" 000 Buck Super X Winchester round which spits out three .36 caliber pellets in one shot. Someone said this in a forum " it feels so good to fire 2 shots BOOM BOOM and then see 6 holes in the target" and that is so true. However I wanted more holes in my target and it seems Taurus has answered my prayers with this new model: 4510TKR-3SS MAG version of the Tarus Judge which allows you now to shoot the 3" 000 Buck shot shell which spits out five .36 caliber pellets. So now my BOOM, BOOM produces 10 holes in the target instead of 6...you gotta love it. lol (evil laugh)

The new 3" Chamber Judge came out in 2008 after Taurus kept receiving more request to make the Judge a more powerful self defense weapon. I was on a quest to find this gun for almost a month before I finally got it. No one in my area seemed to had it in stock or they didn't know the difference between the 2.5" chamber Judge or the 3" one. This was so annoying to me because I live in Miami, Florida the home base of Taurus International and yet I could not find their top selling gun. I had bought a 3" bird shot shell to use to check the chamber of the Taurus Judges I had come across to make sure I was buying the magnum version.

I would search the Taurus Dealer System and Google to locate dealers and then check by phone to see who said they had the 3" chamber gun in stock but when I got there and had them try to fit 3" bird shot shell in the chamber it would not fit. In my head I would be like: " Mr dealer sir, you have the 2.5" chambered model here, please get your sh*t together before you tell people to drive over here and you don't have the correct gun in stock ". This madness went on for a month until I came across a little gun store called Public Pawn & Jewelry Inc. in Davie Florida (954) 843 -0324. They didn't have it the first time around but Bruce the owner told me to check back in like a week he should be getting some in stock. One week later I went by and sure enough it was there. I wanted the stainless steel version but at the time they only had the blued version available so I got it.

This gun is pretty huge and it's seems very heavy too. The Barrel is 3" inches long but when you add a 3" chamber in the length equation you are at about 6" inches already not counting the grip and hammer . The image to the left shows the spec sheet for the gun its a size monster but it also gives you monster power shooting both the very powerful 3" 000 Buckshot .410 shell or the .45 colt bullet (a proven man stopper). It comes with a nice fiber optic orange front sight that makes target acquisition a synch and the Taurus's patented Ribber grip absorbs most of the recoil I have been told but we will see once I test fire this baby. The weapon itself looks very polished and well made. Judge is etched on the barrel real big for those who want to second guess the name of your gun. Because of it's size and aggressive styling the mare presence of the Taurus Judge will strike fear in your would be attacker.

Well that's it for now I 'am now trying to figure out some conceal carry options for this gun. I will post my findings on the conceal carry and shooting once I'm done feel free to rate this post and leave your comments.
