Charter Arms Pitbull 45 ACP 2.5" 5-Rd DA/SA Revolver - Matte Stainless

The Charter Arms Pitbull packs five rounds of hard-hitting .45 ACP into a compact, easy-carrying revolver built around a short 2.5" barrel. Chambered in the same battle-proven auto-pistol cartridge, this no-nonsense double-action/single-action revolver is purpose-built for personal protection without the bulk of a full-sized magnum.

The Pitbull rides on an extra-large matte stainless steel frame paired with a matching matte stainless steel barrel and cylinder, giving the gun a low-glare, low-maintenance finish suited to daily carry and range duty. The compact 2.5" barrel keeps the overall length to a manageable 7.38", while the revolver's overall weight of 22 oz strikes a balance between packability and steady recoil control.

Controls are traditional: an exposed hammer for deliberate single-action fire, paired with a smooth double-action trigger pull. A fixed front blade sight with an integral rear groove provides a quick, snag-free sight picture for defensive work. The grip frame wears black finger-grooved rubber grips that fill the hand and help tame the .45 ACP recoil impulse.

With a 5-shot cylinder of hard-hitting .45 ACP, the Pitbull lets you carry and practice with the same readily-available defensive ammunition as your favorite 1911-style pistol, simplifying your ammo logistics. This example ships in factory-new condition, ready for your next range session or home-defense rotation.
