I gave it the usual inspection and then test-fired it, looking for reliable function, accuracy, velocity and handling quirks. Out of the box, the Police Undercover inspired confidence. If you take care of it, your Charter will last a long time. Rter line is certainly worth consideration. For someone who is looking for a basic carry gun and is going to shoot less than that, the Cha For someone who plans to put tens of thousands of rounds through a revolver in practice, the extra cost of the bigger brands means a smoother, more-refined wheelgun that will probably work longer. At an MSRP of $375 (less on your dealer's counter) the Police Undercover is going to cost you half what a stainless S&W or Ruger does. What you're getting is a product aimed at the "value for money" market. 357 Magnum ammo, as the recoil is downright painful. 357s, in exotic titanium, scandium and unobtainium alloys. Yes, all the wheelgun cognoscenti now carry snubbie. It's a stainless steel, six-shot revolver chambered in. The company sent me a box 'o guns, and this Firing Line report is on the Police Undercover. It is back in business-has been for a while-and is making the same well-constructed low-cost revolvers it did before. When the company was not in operation, getting parts was impossible. What kept me from repairing them was the on-again, off-again existence of Charter Arms. Most any revolver would have quit if treated that way.
They were rusted, lint-packed and the oil was congealed in them. The ones that came to me didn't work, and for the most part it was clear why: They'd been abused-dropped, filed-on abused. How? I changed the oil, washed it and did all the other normal maintenance things you do to a car.Īnd so it was with the Charter Arms revolvers I'd see as a gunsmith. "Then they die, Pat." Mine? I traded it off at the 135,000-mile mark, still working fine. A friend of mine owned a service station, and his experience was that Escorts lasted 60,000 miles. Excuse me, but who deliberately treats a firearm badly? A long time ago I owned a Ford Escort.
