Charter Arms Pathfinder .22 LR DA/SA Revolver, 2-inch, 8-Shot, Compact, Matte Stainless
This Charter Arms Pathfinder stands out as a compact, 8-shot .22 LR revolver with a 2-inch barrel and a lightweight aluminum frame. It features double-action/single-action operation, fixed sights with an integral ramped front, and a matte stainless finish. Built in Shelton, Connecticut, it combines a carry-friendly size with straightforward controls and durable components.
The 2-inch barrel is paired with an underlug and a fixed rear topstrap notch, giving the revolver a simple, reliable sight picture. The exposed hammer with a checkered spur supports single-action precision when desired, while the left-side frame-mounted cylinder latch provides familiar, quick operation.
At 19 oz, the Pathfinder maintains an easy-to-handle profile. Black rubber finger-groove grips enhance control, and the 8-shot cylinder adds capacity beyond typical rimfire snub configurations. Materials and finishes include an anodized aluminum frame and a matte stainless overall finish, matched to its fixed-sight setup for low-maintenance use.
This U.S.-made model is identified by MPN 72224 and UPC 678958722246. It retains the core Pathfinder traits—compact size, fixed sights, and DA/SA versatility—while offering the practical details many shooters look for in a rimfire revolver.
