I am about to buy my first handgun. All my life I've owned a few guns, a BB gun when I was a kid, a .22LR rifle, a 20 guage shotgun, and a 12 guage shotgun.
I keep a 12 guage pump ready to go, near my bed. I would like to get a pistol though. I came across the Taurus 4410 series revolvers that are chambered for 45 Long Colts and .410 2.5" long shotgun shells. To me, it seems like the 4410, loaded with the .410 shotgun shells would be great for home defense. It may be better than my LONG 12 guage.
Am I wrong? Would a .410 shell from this pistol have enough stopping power, assuming that most of the shot from the shell hits the attacker? I would probably get the 4410 with the 4" barrel. So, the pattern would be nice and wide.
