The Pathfinder configuration here pairs a 2-inch stainless barrel with an integral underlug and an open ejector-rod channel, matched to a matte stainless frame and cylinder. The compact, round-butt small-frame profile keeps the revolver easy to carry and handle.
Chambered in .22 LR with an 8-shot cylinder, it uses a DA/SA action with an exposed, textured hammer spur and a smooth trigger. Safety is provided by a transfer-bar ignition system that prevents the hammer from contacting the firing pin unless the trigger is held to the rear.
The fixed sighting system consists of an integral ramped front and a topstrap rear notch for a simple, durable sight picture. A left-side sliding cylinder latch provides straightforward operation.
Controls and ergonomics are rounded out by a one-piece black rubber grip with finger grooves and a Charter Arms medallion. Factory markings include "PATHFINDER .22 LR" and "CHARTER ARMS SHELTON, CT MADE IN U.S.A.", underscoring its U.S. manufacture.
