Has anybody ever used this? Is it any good? Is it single shot or is there enough power to run the slide back? Would the next round get damaged going into the chamber? Need some info.

It's okay at close distances, probably about 10' or less. Anything further than that and it'll spread too much and the pellets are too small to do any significant amount of damage. It won't cycle the slide in a semi-auto. I have never had any problem with the next round being damaged, but I have always racked the slide and rode the slide home to avoid it as well. I doubt it'll be an issue but those things are expensive so I didn't want to risk it.

Good to know it will not cycle the slide. I guess I will run some trial and era. They will be mainly used for venomous snakes.

Honestly, I'd just use your regular carry ammo for snakes, or get a short barreled S&W Governor/Taurus(ewwwww) Judge and some .410 #4 shot. Try to get a good pattern out of that 9mm shotshell in a traditional rifled pistol barrel.

It is more for the parents, I feel this would be a lot easier for them to handle. Not sure either one of them would like a .410 #4 it of a 4" barrel

TC contender 45/410. It actually has a removable choke and can be held/shot like a little sawed off. Recoil is very manageable. I enjoyed mine. Though I've used the 22 shot shells in my Single Six for rats and snake close up.

I am planning to pick up a .38 revolver to use these in. In south GA where I hunt snakes are active through most of deer season.

That stuff is garbage. My best protection against snakes is usually just walking away.

It's easier to dispatch a venomous snake where the kids play. Gotta show them bitches who run this block
Yeah I get that. The shotshells are junk though, except the 44 mag...if you're at arms length. You're better off with a .410 bore.
