TO STAN ( Who bought his wife "THE JUDGE" 45/410 REVOLVER FOR MOTHER'S DAY;----LET THE WIFEY GET USED TO SHOOTING THE 45 COLT LONG AMMO ON THE RANGER-CC ALUMINUM (SHELL CASINGS) BLAZERS ARE FINE FOR PRACTICE-BUT I AM SKIDDISH ABOUT DEFENDING ROUNDS BEING CONTAINED IN ANYTHING BUT NIXKLE OR BRASS SHELLS, ALUMINUM, AS AN ELEMENT, GET BRITTLE WITH TIME-NEVER RELOAD ALUMINUM SHELLS. ALSO KNOW, EVEN IN THE LIGHTWEIGHT REVOLVER EDITION, THE AMMO IN 45 CALIBER DOES NOT HAVE THE SQUEEZE IN THE BARREL UNDER PRESSURE LIKE A MAGNUM ROUND-SO YOU CAN SHOOT BUFFALO BORE AMMO WITH NO SWEAT OF BARREL INTEGRITY BREECH---THE MANUFACTURER SAYS IT IS SO-I WILL TEST IT MYSELF FOR ACCURACY OF NEAR TARGETS. THE 410 SHOT-SHELLS ARE PUNY, AND I WOULD ONLY LET WIFEY LOAD THOSE FOR WATERMELON TARGET FUN, AND TO SCARE OFF RATTLESNAKES---NOT A RELIABLE POTENT ROUND AGAINST RAPISTS AND SERIAL KILLERS PAST 20-40 FEET! JUST MY 2 CENTS WORTH OF OPINION!
