The FBI is a stooge of Biden's handlers.
That's becoming more evidence. Mar-a-Lago is the icing on the cake.
Russian puppet President of Belarus Lukashenko's blunder using Putin's war map as a prop shows up that Moldova is next.
Every gun manufacturer has their own naming-convention gobbledygook. They have names based on years, calibers, sizes, capacity, extremeness. Yes, I wrote that: EXTREMENESS.
Smith & Wesson is infamous for it; at least the gobbledygook part. I don't know if it was Handgun Radio that came up with the innovative concept of a Smith & Wesson Model Number Decoder Ring, but that's where I heard about it.
Well, Taurus is modestly confusing the hell out of me. I get tripped up constantly by the GX series. And I am feebly coming to grips with the numbering of its revolvers. But I still don't know what to call my 22 Poly, uh, PT-22 PLY ... yah!
Where to start? I could start chronologically, but that could be boring. I think I'll start with the easy route, because then I probably won't screw it up. Also, the first gun is sort of cartoonish, so it's like we are starting at an elementary (school) level. REMEMBER: Guns are not toys!
The Judge Series (2006-present)
The Taurus Judge was originally named the 4410. The "Judge" name came about, because judges were carrying the 4410 in Miami.

NEWS FLASH: Biden wants to appoint the first-black-female Supreme Court Justice to cement his virtue-signaling legacy (or his handlers do), but he threatened the filibuster to block the first-possible black-female Supreme Court Justice way back when.

The "ideal" carry Glock in .357 SIG would have a G17-size slide with a G26-size handle. So, maybe. There is a lot to unwrap here, BUT there might be a short cut.
Can you just short circuit the whole problem by throwing a G31 barrel in a G33 gun?
Actually, it looks like it won't work: https://www.glocktalk.com/threads/are-glock-handguns-barrels-interchangeable.1787366/
So, well. Time to get out the hacksaw. And it'd be cheaper. The original work around.
There is enough to be all aflutter about a few releases that were actually or sort of made at Shot Show 2022.
Mega-boutique gunmaker KelTec's P15 demands a response from the blue-collar gun makers.
.30 Super Carry raises many questions including: (1) Is it hype? (2) Will it ka-BOOM pistols? (3) Will it gain traction?

Harrington & Richardson has been reinvented with a retro M-16A1 clone being its first release. H&R really does still holds some trademarks to and full technical specifications for the M-16, because H&R was one of the original manufacturers. And guess what. Palmetto State Armory bought H&R in the Remington liquidation.
So what's the big news? Taurus has a .327 Federal Magnum revolver already cataloged on its website. It looked very exciting, because it looks very similar to the 856 UL revolver - the 6-shot .38-Special Ultra-Lite version of Taurus's 5-shot model 85. Unfortunately, the current offering of the Taurus 327 is a full-weight albeit snubnose 6-shot format tipping the scales at 22 oz. It's at a nice MSRP of $371 and 5 cents.
I really hope Taurus has a 327 UL in its back pocket. Maybe it will be called the 3277 UL - keeping the trend going for Taurus of adding a round at the same time that the Ultra-Lite version appears.

KelTec Joins The Fun
The #Micro9 craze has been going great guns, since SIG Sauer introduced the P365. Well, not really. It took the other players a few years to catch up. Unfortunately, KelTec was early to the party and sat in a folding chair on the edge of the dance. Let me digress.
KelTec had the P11 for years. It sort of took Smith & Wesson mags that were from S&W old metal DA/SA pistols, but it came with a 10-round "proprietary" mag based on the S&W mag. It was everything the SIG P365 came to be. Don't laugh!
Before we get into the nitty gritty, who are the players in the industry?
Micro 9s (order of intro)
KelTec P11 (1995-2019)
SIG P365 (2018-now)
Springfield Armory Hellcat (2019-now)
S&W M&P Shield Plus (2021-now)
Ruger MAX-9 (2021-now)
KelTec P15 (2022-now)
And to celebrate the P11 that was ahead of its time - a Viking funeral.
The Nitty Gritty
How does the KelTec P15 stacks up to the gun it sort of pretty much replaced - the KelTec P11? And how does it compare to the lightest 9 - the KelTec PF9? How does it size up to the SIG P365 - the quintessential micro 9?
Well, hell that's inconclusive! Is the KelTec P15 a SIG P365 killer, or is it just a little bit too tall?
NEXT: KelTec P15: Glock-19 Killer!
