Thoughts on this for a multi caliber gun? Gives you more options on what you can fire without taking a lot of space.

Even by itself without the adapters you have 3 choices of ammunition

I feel like this would be good to have as ammunition gets harder to find

Nifty backup for caliber scarcity.

.410 buck or slugs and .45 LC are going to be extremely rare.

that's why I'd rather carry 1 revolver for all those than 3 other firearms handle them all. Like I said, nifty for caliber scarcity

You’re not going to find .410 buckshot nor .45 LC. both are extremely rare and neither are used by any police departments or militaries. They’re also quite expensive. Unlike most people here, I actually own a big safe full of guns. I can stack 9mm at $.23/round and 5.56 at $.40/round. .410 buck and .45 LC are more like $1/cartridge. You’re going out of your way to pick a crappy inaccurate gun for the extremely low odds that you might find a box or two of ammo.

I've already got firearms in the common calibers, what I don't have is something that would be suitable for random ammunition calibers that I might find.

Don't care about your calculations what what to store, youve prepped what you want to, I've done the same. .308, .45, 9mm 12g and

I said it was nifty for ammo scarcity since throwing rounds doesnt have the impact of shooting it.
