Ohhhhh the .45 LC is PLENTY lethal. Using modern, smokeless powder, it approaches the ballistics of a .44 magnum!

The fact that the Judge can shoot both .45LC & .410 shotshell, makes it an interesting gun. But IMO, it would be an awfully awkward gun for every day carry. A good gun to take with you hunting as a secondary firearm, or a good home defense weapon. It's huge. To big for me.
