Call the S&W Governor whatever you like, mine has earned a place in my defensive arsenal. Not by marketing imagination but by actually shooting the gun and from there deciding where it fits in. I'm sure it's not for everyone.
B Smoke, Have you never seen them in the top of Sage Brush. They lay up there to stay off the hot sand and to hunt birds etc. I have a friend that was bit in the waist. Hunting and Belly stalking Antelope during late August when the males return to the dens. They are aggressive and in mass. I don't hunt them but I don't try sharing space with them.Do you have an opinion about .38 Special shot shells out of a two inch barrel? I generally leave the Prairie Rattlers alone since they must be the laziest snake in the country but you never know. Last summer there must have been a nest near our main irrigation distribution gates since I met them frequently there in the late Spring. Mostly they were run over by my truck.
You would really buy a revolver with a hugely large cylinder just because it shoots the short 45 ACP? The M625 JM is a much nicer revolver which is chambered in 45 ACP.If I remember right, the Governor shoots .45acp too.
For that reason alone I'd look at one
I got my trusty red ryder for that, don't need to spend $10 a box for 410 shellsIT is the cat's meow for running off stray dogs and I have killed a rattler or two with it. Oh, and I have run off my share of deer munching at my collards patch. IT's a big bank with a little sting!
At the price they want for them, no, probably not, but I do like .45acp revolvers for some reason.You would really buy a revolver with a hugely large cylinder just because it shoots the short 45 ACP? The M625 JM is a much nicer revolver which is chambered in 45 ACP.

I'm not disagreeing with a 45 ACP revolver, only the the combination of the 410 with it. In addition it looks strange too.At the price they want for them, no, probably not, but I do like .45acp revolvers for some reason.
I have a 25-2 and an old Colt 1917 to scratch that itch.
I kinda like the looks of it, but then I like oddball stuff.I'm not disagreeing with a 45 ACP revolver, only the the combination of the 410 with it. In addition it looks strange too.
I have a .410/45 Colt Bond derringer for snake duty around my farm. A bit more convenient to carry.
