I didn't understand the MOST bang for your BUCK question either. I thought he was wanting to know the Most....my bad on not deciphering that to actually be the least. Apologies

My opinion on the Judge is not unanimous (mostly Judge owners disagree with it
). But I'll take "a vast majority" agreeing with me over "everyone."

Horrible answer.
what's wrong with the judge? I'm gonna purchase one after christmas. Is there something wrong with them? I say they have good value cause it's essentially two guns for the price of one.

It tries to do two things at once but only does one of them "okay" and the other pretty terribly.
1. Shotguns don't have rifled barrels unless shooting slugs. Why? Because it causes the wad to spin and your shot spreads out too quickly. Couple that with a short barrel and it makes the Judge terrible at ranges past 10 feet. The one upside is that it's a decent snake gun for this very reason.
2. The gun weighs almost 4 pounds and provides no extra ammo compared to a regular revolver (is actually down 1-2 rounds compared to revolvers that weigh less). If extra weight is added capacity should reflect it. They made it larger for that gargantuan cylinder that can fit long 410 shells. I already explained how the gun isn't a shotgun so that basically makes this unnecessary and burdensome weight.
3. When shooting 45 Colt, it doesn't maximize accuracy or velocity. Since the cylinder is the length of a school bus the bullet has to travel quite a bit in open space before impacting the rifling. The large gap between cylinder and forcing cone causes a loss in velocity.
If you're getting it as a defensive gun, there are numerous (and I mean NUMEROUS) other guns I would choose. If you want an accurate shotgun, there are numerous others I would choose (like an actual shotgun with a common chambering like 12 gauge or 20 gauge). If you want a snake gun, you found a good one.
So to conclude, it does an "okay" job at being a 45 Colt revolver but does a terrible job at being a shotgun. So it's essential 0.5 guns for the price of 1.

You'll be able to shoot .45 ACP out of the SW.

solid and well thought out reply. Thanks. Essentially I am looking for a snake/gator combo for when i'm working out at the farm and don't wanna lug a shotgun around, less emphasis on the gator.

Personally I've never given any credence to the twofer concept when it comes to guns.

I'll definitely check it out. I've seen them but the guy at Cabela's recommended the Taurus. Maybe he's on their payroll, the bastard. Preciate it!
