This new Public Defender weighs a mere 20.7 ounces, yet still delivers the same devastating firepower that makes its brothers famous. Nothing could be better for a nightstand gun or as a lightweight pack gun on trips through the backcountry.<\/p>\n<p>Capable of chambering both .410 shotgun shells and .45 Colt ammunition, this amazing 5-shot combo gun is ideal for short distances &#8211; where most altercations occur &#8211; or longer distances with the .45 LC ammunition.\u00a0 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. The Public Defender also features a reduced profile hammer that will not catch or snag for a quick and reliable draw.<\/p>\n<p>The Public Defender Ultra-Lite is available with carbon steel or stainless steel cylinder in either stainless or blued finish. All Taurus Judge models include fixed rear sights and fiber optic front sights as well as Taurus\u2019 ergonomic Ribber Grips.\u00a0 Additionally, like all Taurus handguns, the unique Taurus Security System\u00ae allows users to securely lock the gun using an inconspicuous key-lock. MSRP $648.00 &#8211; $680.00.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s 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\u2122, posting record growth every year since.
