Description
Charter Arms built its name on the classic Undercover revolver, and the Undercover Lite trims weight off that proven platform for everyday concealed carry. This snub-nosed .38 Special five-shooter pairs a 2″ barrel with a lightweight aluminum frame finished in black passivate, while the cylinder and barrel are black stainless steel for corrosion resistance and a matched, low-glare appearance.
Rated for +P ammunition, the Undercover Lite uses a traditional double-action/single-action trigger with an exposed hammer for deliberate single-action fire when desired. The small-frame revolver holds 5 rounds in its cylinder and tips the scales at just 12 oz unloaded – a meaningful weight reduction over the all-steel Undercover standard. The compact overall length makes it a natural fit for pocket carry, inside-the-waistband holsters, and off-body concealed-carry setups.
Controls are kept simple and snag-free for everyday carry. The fixed front sight offers a clean, low-profile sight picture, and the black finger-grooved rubber grips fill the hand for positive recoil management despite the compact aluminum frame. With its balanced proportions, light construction, and concealed-carry-friendly controls, the Undercover Lite continues Charter’s tradition of building affordable, dependable revolvers for personal protection.
