Connecticut or something like that? I live in connecticut and I'll have you know, we are one of the premier communist states in America. A state that tells law abiding citizens what they can and cannot have. A state that only allows criminals to have things like magazine capacities that are current with the times. A state where law enforcement can't pursue criminals, and if by mistake a cop should catch one, the court system releases them. A state like connecticut or something... humph, how dare you. Connecticut is proud to stand tall in the way of our rights, the constitution, and freedom. We are not just connecticut. We are woke tree hugging narcissistic morons I'll have you know. And if the cost of living allowed me any extra money, I'd be the fk out of here for a state like Tennessee or something.

I have big farmer hands and I too get slide bite from my csx. I have to grip it lower. But almost always end up with slode bite at the range with this one and my Beretta jetfire.

Beretta recommends top brand ammo for their Tomcat specifically because "cheap" ammo causes these issues.

Great video. I'm wondering if this extened safety will dig into me carrying appendix?

My wife bought the Taurus 327. Never plan to shoot .327 mags out of it because that would defeat the purpose of having a low recoil revolver for the Mrs. 32 H&R mag work great for self defense and the 32 S&W Long has to be the cheapest to reload. I pour my own lead so it's the cost of the primer and a tiny pinch of titegroup. I think I bought 500 pieces of Starline brass. That will last forever. I am considering the Charter Arms. Surely you can drift the front sight if needed.

Guy criticizing the p32 grip but targets better than that of the Tomcat….funny

Id like to see someone make rail mounted weights. For the same reason. I have a 44mag Smith and Wesson Performance center with removable weights. Made me think

I bought the Charter Arms Professional about a month ago (June 2024). Mine is the SS 3" seven round in 32 mag. I could not find any factory ammo in my local Phoenix area retailers, but this is not a problem. I have been a handloader for over 50 years. I ordered 1K of brass from Starline (back ordered) and 400 pieces from Powder Valley. I already load for the 32 S&W and 32 S&W Long. The same dies can be used for 32 mag. I have a few thousand Acme 100 gr SWC sitting around for the other 32 calibers, so those were used. I used 3.5 gr of Accurate #2 ignited by Fiocchi small pistol primer on a Dillon 550B press. These are cake to load. The revolver grips were not comfortable, so I installed a Pachmayr "Gripper" to fix this. I also found a perfect holster fit with a Kolster 351. S&W K-frame holsters are like 99% compatible with Charter Arms guns. Yesterday, I fired 200 rounds of my handloaded 32 mag rounds at C2 Tactical in Tempe, AZ. Indoor ranges make a lot of sense when it is 112º F outside. Targets were all set at 40 feet. The first few shots went about 8" wide to the left, but then settled into centered 4" groups the rest of the session. The groups started at about 2-4 inches high, then settled to center. The green fiber optic light pipe front sight was excellent for these old eyes. I found that the group size and placement was about average for what I shoot at that distance. I typically shoot about 400-500 rounds per week using a variety of pistols and revolvers. It is nowhere as accurate and consistent as my Walther PPQ, but it is way ahead of my old Webley or Nagants. Bottom line is that pistol is a keeper. Easy and economical to load. Good enough accuracy that I could improve on with practice, nice hand fit (thank you Pachmayr), low recoil and muzzle blast, light weight, yet would still be effective on most two-legged varmints if things got ugly.

Did you compare with the same setup and no compensator?

It's a fixed sight revolver. Every ammo is going to hit at a different poi.

My charter arms 32 "professional" has been the biggest pos gun I've ever had the horror of shooting lol.

Looks like it has issues. Don't recommend cocking the lever and not shooting, but talking and moving around instead. Do all your commentary before you cock and fire.

You are changing the position of your finger on the trigger between double-action and single-action. Put it in the same position as double-action for single-action work and your accuracy should improve.

DO NOT BUY, caused permanent damage to my polymer rail, and shoots the flash straight upwards block line of sight and dirties the front sight after only a cpl rounds. Should have been milled at an angle like better comps. So pissed and not LTT or VP will care for the damage, gimmick imo

Since you’re wrapping your finger around the trigger your shots are hitting left. I was taught to only use the tip pad of my finger when pulling the trigger, so you can pull it straight backwards. If you wrap your finger around the trigger and squeeze then the shots will hit left. Try it out

Can you use 327 magnum in that firearm

I want one

I have the same pistol and set up with Comp like yours. Bought because my favorite pistol John Wick uses.

I have always loved little 38 snub nose revolvers. I have a Colt Detective Special, a S&W M649, and the new S&W 442, as well as a 2" barrel for my Dan Wesson. Problem is finding 38 ammunition, and finding it at a decent cost is a challange. Ballistically, the 38 and 9mm are pretty similar. For me, this gun shoots low and to the left. However, the groups are quite tight. I have considered taking some metal off the front site, but am heistant to butcher my gun. Wonderful, simple, shoots well, and stainless. What's not to like? Great carry gun, and the fun I carry most often. A good revolver will never fail you.

Doing a gun review with a BMW t-shirt on? 🤣

BMW hasn’t made a god vehicle since 2003, the E39 5

I carry my KelTec P32 in my front pocket all of the time in a pocket holster. Am I worried about printing? Sure, but I don't act hyper-aware of that. Most people are too concerned with their own lives and doing what they need to do to live them in a day-to-day mode that they don't notice you, and the bulges in your pockets.

But the M&P with 3k rnds.. done deaĺ

Please.. stop with all the negative already..

Have you had any issues with the barrel popping up while firing

As i said recently, in another forum, my CA Pitbull 9mm, is without a doubt, a nearly perfect 9mm revolver! I have over 1,000 rounds through my Pitbull, and I'm still yet to experience the first unacceptable issue with it!! I have depended on it throughout some tough times, and it's yet to show me a problem!!loads, shoots and eject spent shells, flawlessly!!

That is good double action is more acturate in life or death that's the way you would be using it.

Thank you, this is why I’m here. Reduced grip strength due to arthritis. I thought I had found an answer in the bobcat/ tomcat, but was concerned with the absence of an extractor, and in the event of a failure to fire, even if Adrenalin allowed me to rack, I was curious how would I get the dead round out of the chamber. I’ll keep looking for a solution. Thanks again for the demonstration.

Good info, I am thinking about getting a 9mm pit bull revolver from Charter Arms.

It’s not unusual to have light primer strides with 32 amp ammo in a 32 H&R and that is because the 32 amp is a almost rimless cartridge where 32 H&R is a rimmed cartridge so the app goes into cylinder to far giving light hammer strikes nothing wrong with the Charter Arm, I have several 32 revolvers and are S&W andRugers and same thing happens

Eu escolheria a keltec é muito mais fina e mais leve a finalidade é passar despercebida

Any installation video ? Thank you!!!

38 grains o 3f seems a bit light for this rifle. Do you know what the actual recommended amount of black powder is?

If this happens it would more likely be with an unfired round and would just fall out.

Does the trigger on this have a "tricky" reset? I have the LCR (in 22) and I have to all but let off the trigger even in a rapid fire, if I don't then the barrel will rotate but no fire. Does this gun have a similar situation?

Thanks for the review. I've been considering one of these for a while, and was just looking at one earlier today.

Some people like them because they are cool and already have a full size battle, and compact and tiny pocket backup. Sub-compact wise, I'd say a great choice. Hookem.

I couldn't hear you, so I only tried for three minutes. Please dub in a proper sound track, or just try again. Sorry, but I had to give it a thumbs down, and I have both of these guns.

As far as the bobcat goes, ive had multiple failure to fire on my 22 LR ammunition. I recock hammer hit it again and if it doesnt go bang i flip up barrel and it goes flying. Rack slide or load another round in barrel and bang.

Hello! Good video I got mine a day ago, didn’t hear it in the video but did you use the high or low gas setting? Thanks!

Yep..spot on...almost bought a little brerett..thought about same thing...just like mag safety....hmm good and bad...

What is the distance? Thanks.

It seems like the gun is really calibrated for the 85 grain HR magnum. I have this in the aluminum frame, and the heavier bullets of the 32 long (98 to 100 grains) tend to not be as tight as the 85 grain loads be they target or defensive. As for the sight, I have an old Charter arms undercover from 1971 that looks the same...I wonder if it's part of the design that just makes it look slightly off?

🤔... It looks like the best way to clear a Tomcat failure to eject would be to carry a few rounds in a reload strip. Pop the barrel, dump the bad round, and load the barrel from the strip.

Ive had my 3032 Tomcat Inox model now for few years. It great pistol price of it has gone up some since i purchased mine.

According to Wiki, .32 acp, .32 Long and .32 Mag all use a bullet .312" in diameter (.32 acp is listed at .3125"). This is typical for a .32 handgun round. .32 acp is shorter than the other two, though, so there's more freebore with that round. Could be why the bullets went sideways. ....of course, it is a Charter Arms, too.

Another great video on this model of firearm, thanks for making it. I am curious though are you using a center hold or a 6 o'clock hold when you aim? Also I just wanted to mention that Charter Arms themselves have a fantastic lifetime warranty that doesn't cost any extra. It's not as fast as the Davidson's that you mentioned however. Finally I was not a big fan of the stock grips so I changed mine. My black Nitride coated one got their square bottom compact rubber grips and their double action only hammer making for a much more compact model for pocket carry. While my stainless steel one got their rosewood checkered small grips paired with a BK grip sized for a j-frame. Both of these combinations work much better for me than the stock grips.

Thanks for making such a an indepth video on the Professional's accuracy. It is a revolver that deserves more content. Both to show of the potential of the design, and to put a bit of pressure on CA to iron out the bugs. I have two (a SS model, and a Black Nitride model) and I have had similar results, but I am not the best shot so I wasnt sure if it was me or the firearm. It's nice to finally see someone else actually capture what I have been experiencing on camera.

I prefer the TomCat. I have shot both. The P32 is definitely easier to conceal. My TomCat is the old, thin-slide model with a Crimson Trace grip laser. Quite accurate for such a small gun. And yes, the trigger cover (frame, if you will) is cracked…but it’s no big deal. Just use a Dremel and make a relief cut over the crack so it doesn’t buckle and interfere with the slide action. I have no problems with mine.
