To this day people swear by their Colt Agents and Smith & Wesson Model 12 M&Ps. This brings up a fact many of us learned back in the day: that lightweight revolvers built on service revolver frames were a handy firearm indeed. A surprising number of people feel comforted these days with an easy-to-carry revolver stuffed with big bullets close at hand. I learned the that the Charter Arms Bulldog. It is a gun to be carried often but seldom shot. They build a gun that offers “reliable, safe, affordable personal protection.” They do not recommend the exclusive use of +P ammo in the Undercover, but rather suggest that you practice with standard velocity loads and save the hot stuff for your personal protection needs. It is also important to note that the website clearly states what a Charter revolver is and what it isn’t. I found their website to be most informative, especially the section titled “Community.” There you will find an especially good write-up on the virtues of the revolver with more educational information than I would usually find in a single source. While waiting to receive the guns for this article I used the time to catch up with today’s Charter Arms. I talked with Charles Brown of MKS Supply, who is responsible for the sales and marketing for Charter, and asked if he could provide me with a double-action-only (DAO) Bulldog. Looking at it I suddenly realized it had been way too long since I’d spent time with an old friend. Fast forward to the summer of 2008 I was in the local pawnshop and they had a stainless Bulldog. I carried these two revolvers everywhere on a daily basis comfortably concealed for several years and never felt compelled to change my decision. A second gun seemed like better insurance, so I put my faith in two five-shot revolvers, one in. In this scenario, given the probable lack of time and distance, I believed that I would have little chance to reload or clear a malfunction. Once upon a time, I needed a reliable, concealable fight-stopping capability that could be used at arm’s length to grappling distance. I prefer my big gun to function and handle exactly the same way as my little gun. Two guns give you a lot of flexibility and a definite Plan B. This concept allows you to carry both guns at the same time or, depending on the situation, seasonal clothing styles, or operational necessity, you might carry just the big one or (more likely) only the little one.
There are a number of options available today for two-gun carry: primary and backup or what I prefer to call the big gun and little gun.
