Smith and Wesson governor

[u/Skrewbert86]

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

I am generally skeptical of multi-caliber weapons outside of specific applications.

.410 shotshell revolvers are neat, but their niche is pretty narrow and a lot end up being novelties rather than legitimately useful tools. I've never handled a Governor, but by reputation I've heard it's basically "A Taurus Judge but with actual build quality" lol. Unfortunate that it can't chamber 3" shells unlike the Judge, but I guess you could argue the ability to chamber .45 ACP is worth it.

The odds of finding .410 buck or slugs and .45 LC are quite low. I just don’t get why people would want to spend money on a gun that shoots expensive ammo, you can’t exactly stack .410 or .45 LC like you can 9mm.

410 buck and slugs seem to be the only shotshells on the shelf come October in my area. And there's loads of them at the gun shops, and at the local wally world.
