[I've only seen a little discussion out there on the Charter Arms and certainly wouldn't expect the Smith detail but at the cheaper cost would it be worth looking at??? ]
Only if you are a fan of self-abuse.
My direct experience is with a new, Charter 2000 4" Pathfinder .22 Magnum, so I can't speak to the .22 L.R. models - but I wouldn't, at this point.
I am currently awaiting the factory to replace my revolver with another, plus the addition of an extra cylinder in .22 L.R. to make it a convertible - for my trouble(s).
So far, I've only gotten back a standard notice that it was received on July 2nd.
I've previously had both the Taurus & the S&W - Spend the extra $$$ on a Smith. Trust me on this.
