I just bought a charter arms .38 special instead of ordering a tokarev online for 20 bucks more. Supposed to be a home defense weapon. How fucked am I? Pic obviously related

There decent, prefer their .44 specials. If it's a home defense or glovebox gun it will get the job done, especially if you put some HP or +P in it.

>>29392504
Thanks for the response, bought it on a whim and have absolutely no experience with charter arms
>>
>>29392367
I'd love to get one of the lefty models to carry, but goddamnit the size is too big to act as a mousegun

>>29392590
That's he thing, auto loaders are thinner and pack more capacity. Are there any benefits to a wheel gun now and days?

Tactically no, there is not.

People talk about auto loaders getting caught on clothing, but I'm yet to really see any evidence of that being a problem.

That being said, I love revolvers.
>>
>>29392750
they handle rimmed cartridges and higher energies better than autoloaders, for the most part.
>>
>>29392750
yeah. being the only fucking gun that is made for lefties specifically.
>>
>>29392367
You made a good choice. Current production Charter Arms revolvers are decent, no-nonsense revolvers. They'll look a little rough, but they'll work.

A Tokarev, unless you're talking about one of the new Zastava redesigns, is mostly a historical novelty, a gun for fun and collectors. I wouldn't be able to trust my life to mine.

Your .38 should do its job just fine.

Be wary of light primer strikes with lightweight rounds. 158gr loads should be fine since they usually have a softer primer
>>
Fantastic firearm, OP. You did good. Total cost?

Why is that anon? I'm pretty accurate with mine and 7.62 tok pens like a motherfucker.

>>29392367
I have two of them, love those grips.
Regularly fire super hot reloiads with no fear of catastrophic failure. They make quality firearms at an affordable price.
