    Default At last, a .410 for the 1911 platform

    We all know the firepower the Taurus Judge provides. Unfortunately it comes in a big bulky revolver platform that makes it difficult to carry concealed. Now, 1911 users have an option to use the deadly .410/45LC combination.

    I hope you posted this as a goof.

    C'mon... Smith and Weston? A quote from the VP of Sales and Markup?

    I'm calling Bravo-Sierra, the article is full of sarcasm.

    The ability to clear a room with a single unaimed shot is no joke.

    Read the ENTIRE article - this is hilarious - a great spoof. Here's a quote:
    "Patrician Pedelunker, S&W's VP of Product Names and Employee Parking Space Assignments told us, "We were eighteen hours into a marathon frame naming session. Several people had fallen asleep, one guy confessed to stealing Post-Its and we discovered a recent hire to the marketing department could speak only French... which probably explains why she kept blurting out "Où sont les toilettes?". We finally elected to name the frame based on the question everyone asked the moment they saw the prototype". "

    is it sad that I really wanted one? It would be a perfect match for my 410 AR upper.

    Not at all. The reason I was "Captain Obvious" in my first post was because when I saw the thread title, I was all eeeeexcited, and then reading the article and realizing it was a joke was a letdown

    Lets not overlook the fact that it would be a AOW with its "smooth bore barrels and five interchangeable chokes".
