Are charter arms revolvers any good manual#

The Rossi and Charter Arms models have 5-round capacities, while the RIA can carry 6 rounds. The double-action trigger pull on all three revolvers provided enough resistance - some were easier to press than others - so that in a high-stress situation, we felt they would be quite adequate and be less likely to be accidentally discharged.Īll were metal-frame revolvers chambered in 38 Special and sported 2-inch barrels. There is no magazine to lose since the revolver feeds off an attached cylinder.

Snubnose revolvers like these three offer the user simplicity since there are no manual safeties, magazine-release buttons, slide stops or any other controls on the revolver other that the cycler latch. If accidentally dropped, none of them will fire. They are also safe to carry fully loaded and concealed, since they are equipped with internal safety systems that require the trigger to be pulled fully to the rear to fire a round.

We felt all of these were well made, and we believe these revolvers will perform their designed task of self defense.

Note that we did not use the word “cheap,” since cheap implies lack of quality. We found the Charter Arms Off Duty, Rossi Model R35102, and Rock Island Armory (RIA) Model 206 as not inexpensive choices, but not horribly spendy either. We did not pay a lot for the three snubnose revolvers tested below in fact, we wanted to see what new revolvers were available for about $400 because we feel protection should fit in everyone’s budget. There is that old expression: You get what you pay for.
