a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .
This is why constant restrictions on legal users will have no effect on the unlawfull use of guns or knives !
I used to make hand loading kits for .410, it isn’t hard to knock something up and just buy a roll crimp to go in a drill.
I also have a box of Lee Loader parts back at my house, I’ll have a look next time I’m over for .410 bits.
Lee stopped making them ages ago, and when they do turn up for sale go for more money than you may think.
Best to buy a new one from another manufacturer. Try here https://www.thexringusa.com/
Technically, you could reload .410 with a 4" nail and a block of wood with a large drilled hole to de-prime, a wooden dowel with a drilled end to press the case on the primer, scoop for powder and shot, and a rolled turn over tool

I can't post a photo in here.
I started out with just a Rocky Mountain 410 kit bought off here and added bits and bobs as I went. Case trimmer may not be needed if just reloading occasionally but sat with a hundred or so used hulls to prep the trimmer helps no end, same with the hull vice, I'm not using a pillar drill as I find consistency in hull construction is got from consistent component assembly leaving just the right amount of free case to form the roll. Once I got the knack it's simple and tidy enough with a hand held drill.

As said all you really need at a push tool wise is a means to crimp the case and a set of scales, got both on the bay/amazon for less than £40 posted, everything else you probably already have, made 100’s of carts for the hushpower this way, no complaints from the pigeons......when i hit them that is 🙄
Yes I have just bought a set of the Lee powder scoops/measures, already have the scales as I use to reload 12 guage shells so have shot and a few powders although probably not suitable for. 410 shells, I will need a resize tool for my used shells a decap tool perhaps take the point off a nail.
I downloaded the ideas in the book yesterday recommended above by Ian Sea "locusts on the horizon".
Thank you one and all.

As far as i know if the carts are being used in the same gun they dont normally need the brass resizing, i never have done, mines a single shot tho so dont know if that makes a difference? May be a problem with pumps but iv never owned one to confirm, no doubt someone who has will be able to answer more accurately 👍
All the best

I've never found the need to resize .410 hulls, if a hull's in good enough condition to reuse I find they fit easily enough.
Had some issues with dodgy roll crimps when I started out reloading them as some wouldn't fit easily, but it was me and my technique at fault in every instance.
That said I've only ever used my hand rolled carts in my own guns.
