ive always wanted to try out the older Taurus 445 .44 spl 2" revolver. never found one locally but knowing the design they would be considerably for suitable for the round that the similar sized Charter Arms guns.
Having both I would take my Bull dog first because of the lighter weight of the dog. Also the quality of the dog was better.
I had to have a very good gun smith go through my 445 to keep it from locking up after a cylinder or two. I got the trigger better than the dog but it took a lot of work and I had to clean out a lot of loose metal that was still in the gun.
I do think the 445 is a heaver built gun but I would never trust it as a carry gun. For me its a range toy.
