As if the Judge werent enough, now comes "the Governor"

From S&W:

Article here

Just what we needed. Now if only they market it similar to Taurus, we can have a new torrent of fudds and ninjas declaring it to be the bees knees in a do-it-all self defense gun.

This comes the same day as the new "Raging Judge" already posted here.

But I can hardly blame S&W for jumping into the market. Too bad that anyone seriously considers it anything but a novelty.

I tried to tell the guys on TOS that Taurus and Smith are still in bed together.

not to offend taurus lovers here, but when i saw the judge, i loved it but stayed away from it cuz it had taurus stamped on it. i have another taurus and had a nightmarish experience with customer service.

that being said, i also have the SW 686+ and i can tell you it is indestructible, customer service should never be bothered, however, i am told dealing with them is prompt and polite.

and now this!!! sigh...

We already collectively gagged earlier with this gun:

So basically they took The Judge, cut the cylinder for moon clips, and called it something new... lol

Read these comments in another article and I think they sum it up for me.

"Wow, I think they even managed to out-ugly the Judge. That’s an accomplishment."

"Taurus, you should be sentenced to hell for coming up with this idea.
Oh and the irony of S&W copying a Taurus design is just too sweet!"

I always worried about the quality of Taurus 410s. Now I can spend enough money for a scam-dium S&W 410 knowing that no watermelons will be safe.

If so, this is the illegitimate child.

I thought that they would have called it the Jury.

Nothing wrong with having a novelty pistol, as long as you understand that's what it is...
