Location: West Virginia | Older Charter Arms Snubby I have had this old Undercover revolver for a number of years. The serial # is 840xxx and it was made in Stratford, Ct. Anyone have any idea of it's age/year made? It shoots well, is well made and it was my carry weapon before I got a Beretta Nano. |

Location: Shiner, TX | Very nice! I have been looking for one of their 44 spl's used to no avail. Will probably buy one of their new stainless ones. |

Location: Georgia | I have two of their early models also..a nickle plated .38 Special Undercover and a .32 'Undercoverette' (supposedly designed lady police personnel according to old advertising) The .32 has never been shot. I do shoot the .38 on a regular basis and it shoots very well. Very solid little gun. Take it to the woods with me every time I go. |

I have to give the people at Charter Arms a real thumbs up. They never say die. Had a couple early ones years ago and even now have a vintage 3' gloss blue Bulldog. Stayed away from the Charco stuff. Now they are back and doing well especially in this economy.
I'm shopping for a NIB Charter Arms stainless .44 Bulldog but the various postings of 'new' .44's show different grips, some with metal medallions on the rubber, some with just pressed medallions on the rubber; some with the name Bulldog Pug, some just Bulldog. And, so on. Is there any reference out there that describes the differences in models via a timeline? I'm guessing changes were made as time moved on in the past 11 or 12 years since they have been back, and those changes can help date one of the new ones for me.
Any ideas? Thank you!
Dave
