Yes, I have one and it's my EDC gun. I put Barami-style grips on it along with a BK grip adapter. It's easy to carry in a pocket holster or in a pinch, slip it inside the waistband, no holster required. I have no problem carrying it without a holster as it's DA only and I estimate the trigger pull in the 8 pound range. As you can see in the photo, I bought the black nitride version.
My favorite load is GT Bullets' 190 grain LHP with 7.5 grains of Unique. The picture is this load fired from the Boomer and recovered from the clay sand berm behind the target. Firing a full cylinder of these rounds will make your hand sting as the gun only weighs 20 ounces.
That the gun has no front sight is an issue for me; I found that if I sight along the milled flat top of the frame and aim at about the 7 o'clock position, I can put rounds into the center of the target.
I do wish that Charter would put a front sight on it; just a simple half moon blade or even a bead sight.
