Are you a gourmet gun owner? Pro E Torrent Download. One of those enthusiasts who gets off on the satisfying snick of a cylinder slotting into the frame? A firearms fanatic who contemplates a trigger pull like a foodie savoring a radicchio and mozzarella pasta casserole? If so, the is not for you.

The snubbie will leave your metaphorical tummy rumbling. If, however, you couldn’t give a damn about anything other than utility (i.e. Shooting someone), the Charter Arms Undercover is a gun whose owners come hungry for self-defense, and leave satisfied that their attacker ate lead. Whatever else you can—or cannot—say about this mid-priced revolver, it’s one accurate gun of a son. As a rule, I don’t worship at The Altar of Tight Groupings (great band). But a recent experience with the left me wondering if a reasonably competent shooter equipped with any of Charter’s products could hit the broadside of a barn.

I’m pleased to report that the Undercover is one of the most accurate.38s I’ve ever fired. The collection of dots in the target’s center (at twenty feet) was so well-gathered that Adam at American Firearms School challenged me to repeat the feat using double action. Only I’d already punched the paper in double action mode. The Undercover’s sights are bog standard.

So all hail the revolver’s eight-grooved pull broach-rifled barrel. The Connecticut company claims their mastery of the pull broach technique ensures that their revolver barrels are better than their competition at sealing the hot gasses created by the primer and gunpowder. They also say the manufacturing process leads to less bullet deformation. Combined with the revolver’s extra grooves, the Charter Arms Undercover delivers astounding accuracy at higher velocities.

The Undercover is a compact weapon of body mass destruction. BUT— I have every reason to believe that the testing and evaluation Undercover.38 was out of time (i.e. The cylinder wasn’t lined up with the barrel). The little snub-nosed bastard was shaving lead and spitting it back at my face; my right cheek was signed by a spray of hot metal. Closer inspection revealed a not-entirely-unexpected, entirely unacceptable amount of cylinder wobble. Check it out. Weebles may wobble without falling down, but revolver cylinders should [be] rock steady.

By the same token, a revolver’s action should be like driving into a wall. The more you pull the Undercover’s trigger, the heavier it gets.

The lack of trigger satisfaction doesn’t affect the handgun’s accuracy, but it makes range practice something of a chore. In the world of personal defense, that’s not a good thing. I’m also not convinced about the Undercover’s three-point cylinder lock-up system: I went off half-cocked more than once. Not an issue. I trained myself to check for full cylinder lock.
