![]() ![]() Charter Arms revolvers do not use a side plate, which creates a stronger frame, and they do not use a traditional crane arm, as it locks inside the frame to create a stronger action. Charter Arms is also the only company to make a revolver chambered for rimless cartridges that does not require moon clips, as well as the only company to make a production model left-handed revolver (the Southpaw). Charter Arms revolvers are interesting because the lockwork is something of a combination of Ruger, Smith & Wesson and Colt technology. In 1967, McClennahan's lifelong friend, David Ecker, became a 50/50 partner in Charter Arms. Douglas McClennahan, a young gun designer who founded Charter Arms in 1964, had previous revolver experience after working for Colt, High Standard, and Sturm-Ruger. ![]()
