First Look: Charter Arms Boomer Revolver Series

Charter Arms has just launched the Boomer series, snub-nosed revolvers that feature ported barrels.

Ported barrels are a very hot trend for carry pistols at the moment, and Charter Arms figured, why not give the same treatment to their revolvers? The result is the new Boomer series.

Based on Charter Arms’ Bulldog line, the Boomer revolvers feature 2-inch extruded 416 stainless steel barrels with twin vertical ports for reduced muzzle flip, trenched rear sighting systems and concealed hammers. The lack of a traditional front sight or hammer should really help facilitate a snag-free draw, but you’re probably not going to win any bullseye matches with it. Let’s be real though, this is a belly gun. The Boomer revolvers are being offered in 9mm, .38 Special, .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum, and each of those are available with either a stainless steel or black passivate finish. All versions ship with a black rubber grip.

Nick Ecker, Owner, President and CEO of Charter Arms, said this about the new series:

We couldn't be happier to offer this updated version of our hugely successful Boomer Revolver … Customers have praised its concealability, accuracy, and design. This new series offers the ultimate in defensive revolvers.

Charter Arms' new Boomer revolvers have MSRPs that range between $451 and $545 depending on the model.
