Strange Charter Arms firearm descriptions

[Blondie.357]

Well to me its strange

look at the .357s, all but 1 are snubbies and the snubbies are described as home protection guns while the 4 inch is described as a "target" gun.

Now I can understand a snubbie for CCW but besides that what possible advantage would using a snubbie have over a full sized .357 for home protection?

As far as I know there is NONE.

The bigger framed, longer barrled revolver is easier to handle, shoots more accurately and the loads are stouter.

Their descriptions fall along the line of
"This 2 incher is the real deal"

"This full sized 4 incher is just a target gun and nothing more"

lol

Many people prefer a shorter barrel on a self defense gun because it is advantageous from a weapons retention standpoint. A revolver with a 2-3" barrel is more difficult to take away from someone than a longer barreled wheelgun. I do, however, find their marketing odd as I'd expect a target gun to have a barrel more in the neighborhood of 6".
