My Favorite Toys

I carry two of these, normally referred to, in such circles, as a 'brace.' The model I carry is smaller than the standard & is called the Public Defender. It has a shorter barrel & cylinder, so it can't handle the 3" magnum shells the full Judge can, but is much easier to carry & conceal. Still, the 2-3/4" ones will do the job. I feed them the Federal 000 Buckshot loads, which amount to four 9mm round lead copper jacketed balls, lined up in a row, in front of a standard .410 shotgun powder load. Naturally, I also carry additional fodder in the form of .45 Long Colt hollow points. Here's a video showing the full size judges in action:
