Compact five-shot .38 Special revolver with black finish and Hogue grip. Designed for concealed carry and personal defense with reliable double-action operation.
The Charter Off Duty represents a straightforward approach to personal defense—a compact, five-shot revolver chambered in .38 Special. This is a gun built for those who value simplicity and reliability over complexity.
The Off Duty follows the principle that a defensive firearm should be easy to understand and operate under stress. The double-action trigger allows for safe carry with the hammer down while remaining ready for immediate use. The compact frame and five-shot cylinder make this revolver suitable for pocket or ankle carry without excessive weight or bulk.
The Hogue grip provides a secure purchase even with gloved hands, and the black finish resists corrosion from daily carry. This is a tool designed for those who understand that simplicity and reliability are virtues in a defensive firearm.
The .38 Special cartridge remains a proven choice for personal defense. Its moderate recoil and manageable report make it suitable for shooters of varying experience levels. The five-shot capacity, while modest by modern standards, reflects the revolver's role as a backup or primary defensive tool for those who prioritize concealability.
