The Taurus Judge Compact delivers dual-caliber versatility in a compact frame, chambering both 45 Colt and 410 bore ammunition for maximum tactical flexibility. This 5-shot revolver features an integrated Viridian laser sight for enhanced accuracy in low-light conditions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-caliber revolvers, the Judge's dual-chamber design accepts both 45 Long Colt cartridges and 410 shotshells without modification. The 3-inch barrel provides optimal velocity for both ammunition types while maintaining portability. The factory-installed Viridian laser eliminates the need for aftermarket modifications and ensures proper alignment.
Key Features
- Dual caliber capability: 45 Colt (Long Colt) and 410 bore compatibility
- Integrated Viridian red laser sight with ambidextrous activation
- 5-round cylinder capacity with smooth double/single action trigger
- 3-inch matte black alloy steel barrel for corrosion resistance
- Transfer bar safety system prevents accidental discharge
- Compact frame design for concealed carry applications
- Fixed front sight with adjustable rear sight configuration
The Judge Compact excels in close-range defensive scenarios where shot spread from 410 shells provides stopping power advantage over traditional handgun rounds. The 45 Colt option delivers precision for longer-range accuracy when needed. Weather-resistant matte finish withstands daily carry conditions while the alloy steel construction maintains structural integrity under repeated firing.
