Charter Pink Lady

When I was working as a gunsmith, Charter Arms revolvers didn’t often cross my threshold. They had a rep back then as not being all that good. I found it curious that they sold like hotcakes, but I saw few of them for repairs. Since then the Charter Arms name and product has been rebuilt. There are a lot of shooters who still cling to their old attitudes, but you should not pay much attention to them.

We have here for your consideration the exemplar of a carry gun a lightweight, five-shot, double-action .38 Special revolver. Such a snubbie has gone to just about every location on Earth, save perhaps Mt. Everest and the Marianas Trench. And for good reason The performance-to-weight package of a lightweight snubbie makes it a valued tool in emergency situations. This one, the Charter Arms Pink Lady, is your basic five-shot snubbie with a twist. The frame is made of 7075 aluminum alloy, and the barrel, cylinder and moving parts are made of stainless steel. The result is a 12-ounce package that is rated for +P ammunition. The name is a big clue; the aluminum frame is anodized pink.
