CHARTER ARMS BOOMER

The Boomer was never a shrinking violet. Five rounds of .44 Special out of a snub-nose says you mean business without a lot of paperwork. This one’s used but you’d never know it, with a tuned action that’s smoothed out the double-action pull and a bobbed hammer that won’t snag on the draw. The wood medallion grips and old-school finish give it that hand-me-down heirloom look without the wait. A big-bore pocket gun with manners and good taste.

For the guy who thinks .38 is for beginners.
