Let's play a joke on all the normies and slowly but surely start trying to convince them .40 is the premium cartridge for professionals.
Seriously. It would be funny AF.

Some unfairly sampled ballistics tests, some biased reviews. Some forum trolling. And BAM. You get people saying weird anecdotal shit.
I ran into a guy saying wounding people with .410 birdshot was effective. People will believe any damn thing.
I'll always stand by my opinion that the only cartridge worth a damn in those is .45 LC.
But if I had to market something to folks that know dick about guns I couldn't do any better than the judge and governor.
"What's that buddy? You need a gun for protection? Let me ask you, when you hear STOPPING POWER, you imagine a shotgun right? Welp, this revolver shoots shotgun shells. And don't go bragging about it to anyone because it's basically a sawed off shotgun, right? That's the thing too, why would you want a sawn off shotgun? It sprays hot lead at everything in front of you and they are still heavy. Here hold this 32" over under. Fuckin heavy right? Now hold this judge. Now if you ask me, holding that chunk of steel, you feel like Dirty Harry right? Now yes he had a revolver, but it wasn't just any revolver. He carried a Smith & Wesson, the most powerful pistol in the world. Did you know S&W make their own version of this that also shoots shotgun shells? It's not even twice as much and you got some REAL AMERICAN steel in your hand."
You've done this before haven't you? PM me the name of the gun store you work in, I'd like to stop in a meet you.
I'm far too honest and probably autistic to work sales again.
Last experience was an auto parts store and I fuckin hated it, it was probably because nobody that walks into a parts store looking for a control arm, sway bar link and ball joints is having a good day and they sure as hell didn't want to spend that $270 at your store.
