Charter Arms Undercoverette
Looking for opinions on the Charter Arms Undercoverette revolver in .32 H&R Mag. Three reasons I'm looking at this revolver. I currently carry a S&W J frame in .38spcl, but it's on the heavy side, so looking for something lighter. The Undercoverette appears to be of good quality for a fair price. And lastly, I reload .32 S&W Long, so I'd have cheap ammo for occasional range use.
All opinions, good or bad are welcome. Thanks. |

Only thing that doesn’t make sense is that they made it a five shot. If it were a six shot they’d sell so much better.

Well the 5 round capacity is probably why it's called a Undercoverette.

they used to make the gun [undercoverette] a 6 shot, but I guess they felt making it the H&R magnum was too much for the material they use when making their guns and reduced the capacity to 5 shots.

I had a Charter once. I'll never have another one.

I guess I'm missing the advantage a 5 shot .32 h&r mag has over a 5 shot .38 spl. same size gun, the .38 can be loaded hotter than the .32 and it can be loaded as light (148gr. target lwc) as the .32 all with easier to find ammo.

You and me both, Jerry. I've always liked the idea of 32 H&R in a snubby, largely due to the 20% more capacity it gives vs. 38. If I'm gonna be limited to 5 rounds, they're gonna be as big as I can manage.
