Charter Arms Pitbull 45 ACP, 2.5" Barrel, Black Nitride
Got this revolver last week. Feels good in the hand and the black nitride finish looks great. I took it out to the range today. Found the kick to be very manageable--not much more than my .38 revolver. The loading and unloading process, which uses little clips in the ejector to hold in the rimless ammo, works very smoothly. The shell goes in past the ejector clips easily as you give it a little twist and I found a solid push on the ejector rod with the heel of my hand dumped all the used shells at once, exactly as you would expect from any revolver. So, any trepidation I had about the ejector clip system for rimless ammo was resolved--that works great. I shot single and double action but with better accuracy, of course, in single action. The sight picture is pretty basic--took me awhile to get a feel for it. At this point, I'm very happy with this gun.
