POLICE GEAR REVIEW 10.16.2010

TAURUS PUBLIC DEFENDER - .410 HANDGUN

Police Gear that is innovative is critical to the evolution and safety of law enforcement, and so is the safety of having a proficient weapon at home for you, or your significant other.  We are often asked what weapon would we pick if you were purchasing a gun solely for home defense.  Our answer is whatever a person can utilize to de-escalate a threat.  In our Police Firearm category is a gun manufacturer Taurus that will certainly make people feel at ease.  It is not a conventional revolver because it fires a .410 rifle round....and that will certainly slow someone down who is threatening grave danger against you in the middle of the night.

We fired the Public Defender and was impressed by the lack of kick.  Typically when you grab a large revolver you prepare for the gun to have a "bark" or kickback created by the power of the gun.  The kick of a large gun is a concern because for some smaller framed individuals the anticipation can sometimes factor into the equation.

The .410 had very little kick when we fired it, and it was similar to that of a .40 caliber.  We were firing Buck shot rounds that essentially are three little balls in the casing lined up right behind each other.  We fired rounds through the gun with ease, and loading the revolver was also simple. 

 

    

The firearm comes in a variety of models, and although we only fired one version we look forward to the test of the Polymer version which aims to lower the weight while maintaining efficiency.  For more information visit http://www.taurususa.com/
