Charter Arms Target Mastiff .357 Magnum 6" Barrel 5-Shot Revolver - Black
Charter Arms
The Charter Arms Target Mastiff .44 SPL 6" revolver is a serious wheelgun built for shooters who want a capable, no-nonsense handgun with real stopping power. This full-grip, 5-round double-action revolver combines a classic revolver format with modern reliability features—ideal for handgun hunters, sport shooters, and anyone seeking a durable, fixed-sight wheelgun chambered in .44 Special.
The 6-inch barrel delivers the velocity needed for hunting applications while the ported design helps manage recoil, making follow-up shots more controllable than they'd be on an un-ported gun of similar weight. The blacknitride finish resists corrosion and looks clean in the field or at the range. You get a spurred hammer for traditional double-action control, and the shrouded ejector rod keeps things compact and protected. The full grip accommodates most hand sizes without adding bulk, and the fixed sight setup means there's nothing to snag or break off in the field.
Charter Arms equipped this revolver with their full hammer block safety system and a robust 3-point cylinder lock-up, so you get both mechanical security and the inherent reliability of wheelgun design. The gun ships in a black plastic case, ready to go. Whether you're working up loads for handgun hunting, running steel at the range, or building a reliable backup gun, the Target Mastiff brings solid steel, honest ergonomics, and .44 Special power to the table.
