The Rossi Circuit Judge in .45 Colt/.410 with an 18.5-inch barrel (brand part no. SCJ4510K) is a revolving-cylinder rifle that fires both .45 Colt ammunition and .410 shotshells from the same 5-round cylinder without a barrel swap. Rossi builds the Circuit Judge on the same double-action/single-action platform as its popular Judge revolver, extended into a shoulder-fired rifle format, and finishes it with a graphite barrel over a hardwood stock. A red fiber optic front sight, a yoke detent, a transfer bar for drop safety, and the Taurus Security System round out the package. Note: this is a revolving-cylinder firearm, not a break-action single shot, though it’s listed among the store’s single-shot shotguns — its dual-caliber, multi-shot cylinder makes it a distinct category of its own for hunters and shooters who want one gun for both cartridges.
