Charter Arms Target Mastiff .357 Magnum Revolver - 6" Barrel, 5-Shot, Stainless Steel
Charter Arms
The Charter Arms Target Mastiff .357 Magnum revolver is a purpose-built wheelgun for shooters who want precision and power in a compact, manageable package. With its 6-inch barrel and 5-shot cylinder, this .357 Magnum delivers the velocity and sight radius that target shooters and handgun hunters demand. The all-black nitride finish is tough enough for range use and field work, and the Picatinny rail lets you mount your choice of optic for faster target acquisition and follow-up shots.
Charter Arms built the Target Mastiff with shooters in mind who want more than a defensive revolver. The 6-inch barrel gives you the ballistic advantage of a longer sight plane and increased muzzle velocity, making it a solid choice for handgun hunting, competitive shooting, or serious range time. The included Picatinny rail means you're not locked into iron sights—add a red dot or low-power scope and dial in your preferred sight picture.
The .357 Magnum chambering gives you versatility: shoot .357 loads for maximum power or drop in .38 Special rounds for lighter recoil and practice sessions. The black nitride finish resists corrosion and wear, standing up to outdoor use and regular cleaning. If you're after a revolver that bridges the gap between defensive carry and target accuracy, the Target Mastiff delivers a straightforward, proven platform without unnecessary complexity.
