    Actually, I just looked it up. In Kalifornia, it is illegal to own a "short barreled shotgun" and since the Judge is designed to fire "shotshells", it too falls under that part of the law.

    My dad had a Bond Arms .410/.45LC derringer. A friend and I took it out to the range one day. The backstops at my local outdoor range are thick pieces of rubber. We shot some birdshot from this gun and from 5 yards the pellets were actually rebounding off the rubber and striking us!

    I shot one of these with the short barrel and if you plan on hitting anything over 10ft away I would recommend something smaller and more accurate. This is a hoot to shoot but not practical imho.

    That's why most indoor ranges won't allow shotguns. The pellets can come home to roost.

    Does it on thin plywood as well.......wasn't fastened to anything, just propped up, and springy....wear your saftey glasses, shot bounced right off and came back....yeah about 15 ft.
    That's the range I was getting "key holes", with the .45 colt

    Hunter, you had to go and post that little gun again! I want one bad! I inquired at the gun shop and the owner wouldn't sell me one even if he could get one. He wanted to push the over and under and over 400$ bucks!

    No haven't posted it yet, still in a wood crate....no carriage for it, yet cannon carriage makes are rare these days, the wood wheels are PITA to find.....modeled after a field piece, shoots Coors can full of C-ment.

    Fuse guy was at the show, picked up 60ft of 30 per foot green fuse.

    No Cobray DD derringers, several O/U Bond models, ( $400 to $500 ones) and not in .410/45lc.

    Lots of tactical stuff.

    Did find a H&R .22 929 in good shape (looks new) for under $200 and a couple of old LEO .38 black holsters for $5 bucks each.
    Not many other deals, same guys selling mostly the same merchandise.

    Thanks for trying Hunter! I have my eye on some mechanical tubing to make my own mini cannon, should be fun!

    I'll keep my eye open, you find stuff when you aren't looking.

    Few Judges for sale, most with the real short 2-1/2 in barrels.....might be considered longer as I believe they consider the cylinder as part of the barrel length, so that would make it 5-1/2 " I guess.

    This thread was started from a guy looking for grips better than the stock gummy bear ones. I too am looking for better grips. Thus far I've only seen these lasergrips.lasergrip crimson trace.jpg

    Hope this helps.
