I'm still doing research and hunting for a 38 spl. snubbie for CC. I've seen a little, but not a lot, on Charter Arms. My understanding is that these are American made.
Can some of you that either have or have had Charter Arms pistols give your thoughts on them? i.e. - quality, accuracy, durability, etc.
How would you compare them to Ruger's LCR, S & W Bodyguard 38, etc. in regards to shooting, recoil and size?
They appear from photos to look good but I've never had the opportunity to handle one. The SA/DA appeals to me and they appear to be reasonably priced. I probably would put 300 - 500 rounds / year through whatever I end up with for range practice. For me, I'm satisfied with the standard 38 spl. I'm looking for something to easily carry concealed and the 5 round capacity with a couple of loading strips also meets my requirements.
Any input would be greatly appreciated as well as your recommendations on which CA model - I understand that some models have alloy frames versus SS, etc. Thanks.
