Charter Arms

I've all the sudden accumulated an assortment of Charter Arms revolvers.

Last winter I stopped into a little hunting store near here and they had a 3 inch Charter .38 on the used shelf, for $135. Yes, $135. I just knew there had to be something wrong with it, but nope, it's like new. I couldn't get my billfold out fast enough. Shoots great too.

Then 2 weeks ago I ran across a 3 inch stainless Charter .22 with adjustable sights. Sweet little kit gun. And it was cheap too.

And Friday, work took me over to Irving Texas, where there are a couple of good pawn shops, so naturally I had to stop in. First one didn't have anything that interested me, but #2 had a very nice Charter 44 Special bulldog on the shelf. Other than a a turn line on the cylinder from a pin on the frame, it's in great shape. It followed me home too.

These are all made by the old Charter Arms company. I need to drag them all out and get a family photo.
