Anyone else waiting to get a rossi circuit judge in thier hands?

I can't say that I'm TOO surprised. It's Taurus's and Rossi's, who both make budget firearms, so no need to explain where my doubt comes from. Not saying that it COULDN'T have been high quality, but I would have been surprised if it were. Too bad, it's a neat sounding rifle.

This sort of situation has happened once with Bushmaster's and Remington's ACR. It looked promising while in production, but when I got my hands on one... it was the worst firearm I had felt in a long, long time. Poorly made as well.

Again, too bad about the Circuit Judge, it sure looked nice in the picture.

I tried one today. I kind of liked how the stock let your eyes get on the sights fast. About the only other thing I liked about it was the fact from changing from squirrel hunting to deer in the matter of a cylinder twist though.

Other then that, I agree that the wood finish reminded me of a BB gun's.

Edit: It was $560 over here.

It certainly looks cool. But the Judge has a bad reputation as a Taurus. As a shotgun/rifle...I don't know.

No. I was looking forward to the rossi ranch hand. Good thing I waited. It more a novelty than anything else.

Not really. Those things strike me as some kind of novelty item, like a stuffed jackalope, or illuminated bow ties and clown shoes.

I kept hearing about Charter Arms Rimless Revolvers (CARR) that were supposed to be released 1st in 40sw, then in 9mm and 45acp. What a massive disappointment that was, they just gave up on it and never produced it.

Does that count?

Kel-Tec was supposed to come out with a semi-auto .22Mag this spring.

I've had money put aside for months now, can't find it anywhere.

Yes, it combines the poor qualities of a .45 Colt rifle with the poor qualities of a .410 shotgun thus uniting the worst of both. What is not to like? Plus, it spits lead at your forward hand.
