If you are looking for 45/410 in a SxS pistol, have a look at the IFG Howdah. It's kinda based on the old 1920's era Ithaca Auto & Burglar...

If you are looking for pump, I picked up a Mossberg 500 Home Security 410 a few years back just for giggles (it was on sale), and my teenage daughter has claimed that as her personal home defense gun.

As for Self Defense ammo - since the Taurus Judge & S&W Governor came out, ammo makers have come out with a good selection of ammo for them. I have mine loaded with Federal's 3" 000 Buck load - you get 5, 000 pellets in each shell - at close range, it will do the job.
Have fun,

I saw the Youtube video on the Pedersoli Howdah in .410 and .45 LC and would really fit what I'm looking for, but the MSRP of $1300 is kind of out of my price range. the 20 ga version in cool and has a MSRP of $800-900, but isn't what I'm looking for right now.
I will probably end up getting the Mossberg 500 .410. I still really want something that shoots .410 and .45 LC besides what Taurus and S&W make.
As for ammo the Horandy 2 1/2 FTX slug, Federal 3" 5 000 buckshot, and Remington Ultimate Home Defense 3" 5 000 buckshot all look like there worth a try.
