Charter Arms®, manufacturers of affordable, 100% American-made revolvers for more than 60 years, is proud to announce the introduction of the new Coyote .380 Revolver, the smallest and lightest of its kind. Offered in 2 models, this compact, everyday carry revolver is designed for to both experienced shooters and beginners, making it an ideal choice for personal protection and sport shooting.

“We couldn’t be happier to offer a compact revolver worthy of everyday carry,” said Nick Ecker, Owner, President and CEO, Charter Arms. “We wanted to offer a smaller frame revolver for women and first-time shooters that would be great for personal protection and sport shooting without the bulk and muzzle jump of larger caliber handguns.”

The new Charter Arms .380 Coyote is a compact and lightweight double/single action revolver, chambered in .380 ACP. Although this cartridge was created for semi-automatic pistols, this revolver takes advantage of the rounds milder recoil benefits. A ported barrel underlug reduces muzzle climb. Many have praised it for its out-of-box accuracy. Built with an anodized alloy frame and finished with a high-polish stainless steel barrel and cylinder, this revolver offers durability and a sleek, modern appearance.

The Coyote .380 frame is crafted from 7075 aluminum, the barrel and cylinder are formed from 416 stainless-steel. The Coyote is available with three finish options; a matte anodized frame and matte stainless-steel components, or a pink or lavender anodized frame with high polished components. All three versions have diamond cuts in the barrel’s underlug and checkered rosewood grips.

The Coyote .380 Off Duty model comes with compact rubber grips and a concealed hammer. Other features of the Off Duty model include HIVIS® LitePipe sight and clear anodized frame with stainless-steel components.

Because .380 ACP is a rimless cartridge that was designed for use in autoloaders, Charter Arms Coyote revolvers must be loaded using moon clips. The .380 Coyote ships with two TK Customs moon clips to feed the 5-shot cylinder. Additional moon clips are available for purchase separately as well.
