When I worked Homicide in the early 1980's I carried one, because being a dyed in the wool "Cooperite" no one made a 19 oz. .45 ACP revolver.

About the only commerical round available then was the 246 gr. RNL, so I loaded a Sierra 210 gr. JHP behind a moderate dose of Unique over CCI primers.

Today the only Charter Arms I still carry is their fairly newly release CARR Pit Bull in 9mm. Due to it's patented star extractor (similar to the defunct S&W M-547) it does not require moon clips for extraction. It's also great for those days with this old fart doesn't feel like "stooping over & picking up" brass.
