Chambered for .410 bore shotgun shells, or .45 colt rounds. Named after Taurus found that Florida Judges where using the weapon as a daily carry.
The only good reason I can think of to own something like this (apart from just thinking it's cool) is if you hike and/or work outside in areas with lots of venomous snakes?
For hiking the only thing I'd want to carry is a 10mm like a Glock 20. Over twice the capacity of a revolver, still enough punch to stop a bear or mountain lion, easily controlled. Rattle snakes around here mind their own business unless you stumble upon them, and they're so well-camouflaged that you usually don't see them until you're within striking distance.
I was thinking if you're in an area with snakes but no big cats or bears.
My dad had .38 caliber shells with some kind of pellets encased in a matrix. Snake charmer I think he called it? Anyway you don't need shotgun shells to shoot a snake. You just leave it the fuck alone, snakes don't like to interact with people and only bite when cornered.
This gun is perfect for when you want to shoot someone at point blank range, completely miss and break your wrist.
I used to have the Taurus M66 seven shot .357mag revolver, can confirm. Broken wrist is one of the better case scenarios.
In payday 2 this can launch people across rooms. All shotguns can but this is one of the best concealable shotguns I think.
Lol ive shot one of these before, buddy has one.
The .410 shells do in fact have quite a kick, its pretty fun.
