410 mistake?

[razr]

.410s are just plain fun to shoot! Of course, on a trap or skeet field, they are know more as an expert's gun than a beginer's gun.

+1^^^^^^. 410s are not as forgiving.

Check out these 410 to 22 lr adapters.... I was eyeing some for 12ga, but I dont think the work with pumps. They are designed for break action, so it'd be good for you

Thank you sir! Now that would workout perfect for me, Because I want a .22 but I bought a dang shotgun lol. For now that will work perfect for saving me some mulah. I pick it up tomorrow and its starting to grow on me, My wife is excited I'm not really that excited until today. I still want a bolt action .22 and a mosin nagant but I just got married on thursday, So that will have to wait.

BTW: Thanks everyone for your help and encouragement (sorry if I spelled it wrong) It took me a while to get back because I just got married.

Congratulations on your "shotgun" wedding.

If you get the .22 adapter, you'll need a wooden dowel or a short section of a .22 cleaning rod to remove the fired cartridge from the adapter.

I love the 410. I own one my self. Just some slugs and have fun with it.

Just got it today, not bad although really dirty. I just did a clean on it, can't wait to buy some ammo and fire away.

First time I ever shot a full round of skeet was with a .410. What a blast that was. I just wish I could find an affordable one just to have for a change of pace. It definitely makes you a more focused shooter because they are very unforgiving. If you aren't on your target, it is gone.

Winchester also makes some nasty home defense loads for the .410. I believe they have three disks and maybe some buckshot. One hit of those would make someone think twice about coming at you.

Have fun and enjoy your new gun!

Guess I feel different.No use for a 410 or a 28 gauge.12 gauge only.I hunt quail and chukar a lot.Also have a one for the self defense thing,that I also use for coyotes.Have a couple friends that use 410 though.In their situations,I understand the use.They live in rural areas plagued with ground squirrels.The neighbors do not seem to mind the 410 being shot in the areas.I had a 410 when I was a kid for shooting grouse in the woods.I had no use for it after borrowing my older brother in laws 12 gauge.I was 11.The recoil to this little kid was worth a lot more birds hitting the ground.

Congrats on getting married!

I want the 410ga revolver - TAURUS JUDGE 6INCH BARREL - but alas not in CA.

But since the TAURS JUDGE came out - thare are some more interesting rounds factory loaded for 410ga - alLtough most in 3inch. Now putt these hot defense loads in a 16 or 18 or longer barrel and there potential goes way upp. Secound and third shot - follow up blasts - the recoil would be perfect out of a full sized pump shot gun or semi auto.

I always thought the 410ga snake charmer was a handy gun.

I do not think you made a Bad Decision. Get it home and then take it out and shoot it.

Did you say what EXACT gun you gott ?????

Actually you can get the Taurus Judge here. It requires going the NFA AOW route, but you can do it. OC Armory is one that imports them. I think their price was $740. I'm getting one...or two.[/threadjackover]

Again, congrats and give us some updates on how you think it shoots.
