Charter Arms President, Nick Ecker said, “What’s unique to both the Off Duty and the Undercover Lite is the high polish finish which offers a traditional look, while the matte black frame creates a futuristic appearance and style. These two new finishes complement the other models in the product line that have grown in popularity. Our customers will appreciate both models are sleek in appearance and were designed for concealable activities.”

The five shot, two inch barrel of the Off Duty and Undercover Lite frame are made from 7075 Aircraft Quality Aluminum which assures superior strength.

MKS Supply Ends Relationship with Charter Arms

MKS Supply

DAYTON OHIO --(Ammoland.com)- MKS Supply announces that the company will no longer be the exclusive marketer of the Charter Arms product line effective October 19, 2010.

Charles Brown, President of MKS Supply said, “Charter Arms and MKS Supply have had a mutually beneficial relationship for the past five years and together we have successfully brought a number of new revolvers to market.

Today we find our business philosophies are not aligned. thus making an exclusive relationship no longer feasible. We still have an inventory of Charter revolvers available to our distributors while supplies last.”

MKS Supply is the marketer of Hi-Point Firearms and the company is expanding its offering of Italian-made Chiappa firearms.

Brown continued, “We’re very excited about expanding our Chiappa line—the company builds exceptionally high-quality guns at very attractive prices. Chiappa has been manufacturing firearms for over 50 years and their focus is on authentic reproductions of classic historic and modern firearms. MKS Supply will be carrying a range of Chiappa’s modern firearm reproductions including the venerable model 1911 and the M4-22 Carbine semiautomatic rifle—both chambered in .22 LR. It’s the best of both worlds, you can own a classic design and enjoy hours of recreational shooting using inexpensive .22 caliber ammo.”

Chiappa Revolutionary Rhino 357 Revolver

MKS is also the marketer for the Chiappa Rhino, one of the most innovative new revolvers on the market today. The Rhino is available in a 2” barrel model and will soon be available in 4”, 5” and 6” models, all chambered in .357 magnum caliber. The Rhino’s revolutionary design truly redefines the revolver—so much so that it is featured on the cover of this December’s Guns & Ammo magazine. All Chiappa products are warranted and serviced in the USA at Chiappa’s service center in Dayton Ohio.
