LEW HORTON DISTRIBUTING ANNOUNCES NEW CHARTER ARMS SPECIAL EDITION BACKPACKER REVOLVER
(ArmsVault.com) – Lew Horton Distributing announces its newest Special Edition revolver from Charter Arms – the Backpacker. Chambered in 44 Special, the new Backpacker is based on the tried and true Charter Arms Bulldog platform. It features a stainless steel frame and a 5 shot cylinder. The 2.5 inch barrel is ported. It has fixed sights with a sight groove in place of a rear sight. It’s fitted with a beautiful set of walnut grips. The barrel has a special “Backpacker” etching on the left side.
The Bulldog platform is well known for its reliability, and for the stopping power of the 44 Special cartridge. Not only is it well suited for rugged outdoor use, but it’s also well suited for a home defense role. The newest model to come from that lineage, the Backpacker, excels in both rolls.
Earlier this year, Horton’s first Special Edition collaboration with Charter Arms, the Custom Carry, sold through very quickly. It’s expected that this special run of 50 Backpackers will do the same. Call 800-446-7866 to be the first dealer in your area to offer the new Charter Arms Backpacker!
