small4510PD-3SSTaurus Unveils the New Judge Public Defender Polymer (from our friends at the Outdoor Wire)

MIAMI – Taurus is proud to unveil the revolutionary new Judge Public Defender Polymer. This scaled down model of everyone’s favorite combo gun, the Taurus Judge, still gives the ability to fire the shooters choice of both .410 and .45 Colt ammunition – now in a size that fits in most pockets – also in a lighter, polymer body frame with new updates for improved handling and accuracy.

Just like its big brother, this little gun delivers amazing versatility and devastating firepower for self-protection. New features include an adjustable rear sight, body styling that conforms to the shooters grip for secure hold and a new target style hammer and trigger. The Public Defender Polymer is available in blued or stainless steel finishes and weighs only 27 ounces.

Capable of chambering both 2.5 inch .410 shotgun shells and .45 Colt ammunition, this amazing 5-shot combo gun is ideal for short distances – where most altercations occur – or longer distances with the .45 LC ammunition. The rifling has been finely tuned on this small frame revolver to spread the shot pattern at close quarters or to guide the bullet to the target.

All Taurus Judge models include a fiber optic front sight as well as Taurus’ ergonomic Ribber Grips. Additionally, like all Taurus handguns, the unique Taurus Security System® allows users to securely lock the gun using an inconspicuous key-lock.

Beginning as a small tool manufacturer in Porto Alegre, Brazil more than sixty years ago, Taurus has become a diversified, international company celebrating resounding success as one of the world’s leading small arms manufacturers. In 1941 the company produced its first revolver, and in 1984 changed the industry forever by offering customers an unqualified LIFETIME REPAIR POLICY™, posting record growth every year since.

June 13 Class Completed

From scared to scary!

From scared to scary!

We had a great group of students for Saturday’s class. The weather was great and everyone went home safe. Great confidence builder on the range as the students learned some new skills. Two students had taken CHL classes in the past and let their license expire. They both commented this class was better than previous classes they had attended.

The picture is the qualification target from a student this weekend. Just a few months ago she did not even want to pick up a handgun as she was scared. Now she is scary good. She embraced the techniques we teach and was able to develop the proper knowledge, skill and attitude to overcome her fears.

Applicants  have six months from the completion of the class to submit the paperwork to the Arkansas State Police. Upon approval the license is issued and is good for a period of five years which can be renewed after completion of a renewal application.  If the license lapses the student has six months to submit a renewal.  Register for our next upcoming class June 27th.
