Re: I Don't Know What To Think - Except That I Need Maalox
As for the Circuit Judge,well they aren't allowed in Calif. The Circuit Judge has a rifled barrel, and as such does not meet the requirements of California law to be a short barreled shotgun.

You may have funky things going on with the excessive free bore caused by the 444 chamber, like the bullet trying to turn sideways, that is causing the barrel to unlatch.

Doc, just so you'll know that 7.62 Handi is much sought after on the Handi forums. The barrels don't last any time at all in the classified section. If you ever consider getting rid of it keep that in mind and price it accordingly. That is the American way, "For Sale To The Highest Bidder"...
