While a .410 is inferior to the traditional 12-gauge shotshell for defensive use, [4] [5] a number of companies market defensive guns chambered in .410, such as the Mossberg 500 Home Security Model shotgun, the Smith & Wesson Governor revolver, and the Taurus Judge revolver. Defensive ammunition such as buckshot, slugs and combination loads are ...
In 2008 Taurus introduced the Judge Magnum which can fire either standard 2 1 ⁄ 2" or 3" .410 shotshells which contain five 000 buckshot and are more effective as personal defense rounds. [3] Several ammunition companies offer .410 ammo specifically designed for the Judge with propellant optimized for shorter barrels.
The 5-in-1 blanks in use today have been redesigned and are made with plastic cases that can be used not only in .38-40 Winchester, .44-40 Winchester, and .45 Colt calibers, but also in .44 Special, .44 Magnum, and .410 bore firearms.
The original USAF Ithaca M6 stock held 9 rounds of .22 Hornet ammunition and four .410 shells, and the Scout holds 12 rounds of .22 Hornet and 4 shotgun shells. For the rim-fire models, the stock holds 15 rimfire cartridges and four shotgun shells. [citation needed] One other unique feature of the M6 is the "squeeze-bar trigger".
The .40 S&W CAN duplicate this performance. The .41 AE uses 0.410-inch (10.4 mm) bullets, whereas the .40 S&W uses 0.400-inch (10.2 mm) bullets. However, as it lacks the backing of ammunition manufacturers in making .410 caliber bullets suited for semiautomatic pistols, the .41 AE has not achieved widespread popularity. [7] [8]
Pistols without the stock are exempt. [1] The smooth-bore version was produced from 1921 to 1934 and sports an 8" or 12 1 ⁄ 4" barrel. The gun was available in .410-bore (most 2½") and 28-gauge. [1] After the passage of NFA34, the smooth-bore Handy-Gun was classed as an "any other weapon".
