I have one of these that I bought new in 1977. The 44 barrel is designed to shoot T/C brand 44 Hotshot capsules. I used mine to hunt pheasants and squirrels back in the 80s before you could buy a 45/410 barrel. T/C would sell loaded ammo or you could buy the plastic, shot filled capsules and handload them into reg. 44mag brass. they were equivalent to a 410 shell. If you take the choke off you can shoot reg 44mag ammo. It makes a nice little gun to carry in a shoulder holster or on a belt. I have killed a few deer and an exotic sheep with mine. Perhaps one of you guys that are T/C collectors could tell us more.
