[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2242253, member: 5412"] It's not a fad gun.....anymore. S&W is even building a variety. I bought the SS 3X3 several years ago, and put together a review complete with pics on this site. Early ammo was anemic to say the least. It was designed for a longer shotgun barrel. Current SD ammo is designed for short barrels. Some of the projectiles in the area of 1200fps. Shot rounds are still relegated to small game only unless one sticks it in their face. Reason is, the small amount of rifling in the end of the barrel causes too much spin and blows the pattern at even close ranges. An 18" pattern at 10' is normal. The new slug, slug/buck combo, or heavy buck rounds are designed to pattern closely at "social ranges" by wad design. I have one in the night stand with 4, 00 buck rounds in the first cylinder, a Hornady Leverevolution .45LC in the second, alternating each. I have tested every available SD round currently out there, and I'm confident in its ability to stop a fight. [/QUOTE]
