Charter Arms is bringing a new revolver to market: the Charter Arms On Duty revolver. The On Duty revolver features a semi-shrouded hammer, a first for Charter Arms.
The 2″ barreled revolver is chambered in .38 Special and is “+P” rated. It has an aluminum frame and a stainless steel barrel and cylinder. The shrouded hammer allows the user to shoot double action, or to cock the hammer for a lighter, single action shot. The five shot On Duty revolver weighs in at 12 ounces unloaded.
Smith and Wesson currently manufactures a similar revolver, the model 638 “Bodyguard” series, in .38 Special. The S&W 638 also features a shrouded hammer.
Like all of Charter Arms’ revolvers, the On Duty has a lifetime warranty.
The MSRP for the On Duty revolver is $430.00. Charter Arms says they are available now, but it will probably be a few weeks before the guns make their way through the supply channels and to your local dealers. Of course, Impact Guns is always a good online source for firearms.
