Description

This is a Charter Arms Undercover Lite double-action-only (DAO) revolver chambered in .38 Special, featuring a 2-inch barrel and a 5-shot capacity. The firearm is constructed with a lightweight matte silver aluminum frame paired with a matching matte-finished cylinder and barrel. It is equipped with black rubberized finger-groove grips that feature a pebbled texture for improved handling. The sighting system consists of a fixed front ramp sight and a rear notch integral to the frame. Verbatim markings include U.C. LITE and .38 SPL. on the left side of the barrel, while the right side of the barrel is stamped CHARTER ARMS, SHELTON, CT, and MADE IN USA. The serial number 22L27974 is clearly visible on the right side of the frame. This firearm is accompanied by its original black plastic factory hard case with a matching serial number label for Model 53821, the owner manual, a red trigger lock, and a factory test-fired casing in a sealed bag. The revolver appears to be in an exceptionally well-preserved state. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.


Condition report:

The firearm is in excellent, potentially unfired condition. The matte silver finish is consistent across all metal surfaces with no visible scratches, thinning, or holster wear, and there is no discernible cylinder turn line. The bore is bright and clean with sharp, well-defined rifling. The double-action-only mechanism appears to function correctly with a smooth trigger pull. The rubberized grips are supple and free of wear or degradation. The factory hard case and all included accessories are in excellent condition.
