About the Judge Public Defender Polymer

The Taurus Judge is known for its ability to fire both .45 Colt ammunition and .410 shotshells. This Public Defender Polymer model incorporates a polymer frame, contributing to its lighter weight compared to all-steel versions. The frame material is alloy steel, with a black polymer finish for the exterior. The cylinder has a matte black oxide finish.

This specific configuration has a 2.5-inch barrel and an overall length of 7.65 inches. The sights include a fiber optic front sight and a fixed rear sight. It operates in both double-action/single-action (DA/SA) mode and uses a transfer bar safety mechanism.

Choosing Your Public Defender

Taurus offers several versions of the Judge Public Defender. This particular model, with its 2.5-inch barrel and black polymer finish, provides a balance of size and weight. Other Public Defender options we carry include models with 2-inch barrels, different frame colors like grey, OD green, coyote brown, and flat dark earth (FDE), and a matte stainless finish. Each version maintains the 5-round capacity and the ability to chamber both .45 Colt and .410 bore 2.5-inch ammunition.

The Judge line is often chosen for home defense, vehicle carry, or use on the trail. Its versatility with ammunition types allows for use with buckshot, birdshot, or .45 Colt cartridges, depending on the need.
