It may well be a but* ugly design, but it really is a beauty in terms of functioning for a small. The later 649 dash numbered models have slightly less appeal to me. But be warned a 649-2 or earlier will cost you more than the new Charter, but you will have so much more gun and + P ammo is no problem if you ever want to use it in the 649.

My Dad bought one of the Bridgeport guns when they were first manufactured it has a 4 digit serial number.

It was his constant companion for over 15 years he bought a model 60 and sold the Undercover to a friend. I bought it from the new owner later on and still have it. It has digested countless rounds and never let any of us down. I have owned several Stratford era and later guns and they were pure unadulterated junk. Both Undercovers and Bulldogs of later manufacture, none were worth keeping. I had a brand new Bulldog that was roll stamped 'harter Arms ratford Conn' on the barrel that threw lead bullets sideways at 15 yards. And then there was a similar vintage one that put the first round spot on at 7 yards, then grouped the next 4 six inches to the right every time.Īfter two trips to the factory for repair didn't fix it it got traded. I had a brand new one in hand in a LGS that had such horrible timing a range rod wouldn't go down the barrel into the cylinder. I guess the moral of the story is if you find a good one, keep it.The Commonwealth Secretariat, established in 1965, supports Commonwealth member countries to achieve development, democracy and peace.
