Didn't sell well because it was a bad idea from the beginning. A light weight 44 mag fir concealed carry isn't a good idea.
That's the thinking man's answer. The problem is, many people buy a gun on impulse. They read about the new, lightweight, super-duper magnum and just have to have one. That's why you see a lot of 44M/454 revolvers and over 30cal magnum rifles in the used racks and cases. People buy them and the first trip to the range, they get their first practical physics lesson. If it hurts on one end, it'll hurt on the other, as well.
