410/45 long colt
Can Anyone help me with this one. A friend of mine has told me that Thomson made a single shot firearm that shot a 410 shotgun shell and a 45 long colt out of the same barrel. Any information on this subject would be greatly appreciated to settle this debate.

Yes they did, I had one in the MId seventies, it was a contender series, and made for 45 long colt and you could put a adaptor on the end of the barrel and fire .410 shot gun shells thru it.They were single shot and had many barrels avilable for them. 0 -
What ever you do, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIRE A .45LC with the Shot-Choke installed on the Barrel! It could result in serious injury or death!

there is also one that is called a super comance that shots 410 and 45 lc they are not that much only $ 150 or so 0 -
I have a T/C Contender 410/.45LC. Works fine. The 410 is awesome on rattlers out to about 15 feet. Only downside is having to remove the choke to fire .45. Also have to use automotive "anti-seize" compound on choke threads. Each shot tightens the choke a little tighter then when ready to fire .45 choke is hard to remove without the compound in place.

Taurus is also coming out with a revolver late this year that can shoot 45lc, 410, and 44-40 if I recall. It looks pretty cool. 0 -
Look at the Cobray's, most of them were of the .45/410 config. I shot the crap out of one and then gave it ot my brother and he's had it since and loves it as a little pocket rocket. The one i had is the same as this http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=37301505

Hay thanks everyone, I appreciate the information I really learned something here, and lost my bet. But its better to learn and loose a bet then to never have asked. Thanks again Mersk.

T/C also made a vent rib 10" 44mag barrel with a screw in choke tube, that had a flip up rear sight , use the rear sight for bullets or fold it down when using shot shells with the choke tube inplace ,, anybody ever see one of these or use one ?? 0 -
