Smith & Wesson Governor

[karder]

If someone has already posted this, my apologies, but it looks like Smith & Wesson is going to go after the Taurus Judge crowd. The S&W website is showing a revolver chambered in .410, 45 Colt, AND 45 ACP. 6 round cylinder to boot. Frankly, I am surprised it has taken this long for a major manufacturer to go after the Judge with their own product. It looks cool, but I am betting it will be more expensive than the Taurus.

If it has a good trigger and build quality, like you would expect from SW, then I bet it will sell, especially with .45 acp capabilities.

I am surprised they didn't call it the Governator.
Maybe that would be too obvious.

Well, Taurus one-upped them with the 28ga "Raging Judge", which I think has officially redefined the word "overkill"

Think so? This looks like it should be called a "Hand Cannon".

That thing would be perfect... if it came with wheels and a trailer hitch!

Cute little gun for my wife. So where's the 12 gauge version?

You want to talk about a solution in search of a problem? How about a lever-action revolver rifle (not a misprint) in .45 Colt and .410 bore?

Suggested retail of $679 or $899 with Laser grips.

Laser grips. . .

On a shotgun. . . . .

With a two inch barrel!!!

Yeah, I know you can load. 45 colt or .45 acp, but c'mon. Its a scattergun!

That's nuts. The next thing we'll see is an AR-15 with a smart phone in the stock.
