Description
The Taurus Judge Public Defender is a compact, dual-caliber revolver chambered for both .45 Colt (Long Colt) and .410 Gauge shotshells, giving shooters the versatility of either a traditional handgun cartridge or a spread-pattern shell from the same cylinder.
Built on a small steel frame finished in Flat Dark Earth and topped with a matching 2.50″ FDE barrel, this Public Defender pairs a matte stainless 5-shot cylinder with the company’s signature short-barrel platform for snag-free concealed or bedside carry. The exposed hammer cycles in single-action operation, and the fixed fiber-optic front sight paired with a fixed rear keeps the sight picture fast and intuitive under stress.
Taurus fits this model with soft, recoil-absorbing Black Ribber grips, and the whole package weighs just 27 oz with an overall length of 7.65″. Whether loaded with .45 Colt for self-defense or .410 shotshells for close-range threat response, the Judge Public Defender remains one of the most versatile compact revolvers on the market.
