Compact, reliable revolvers remain a top choice for concealed carry and everyday defense because they combine mechanical simplicity with consistent performance. For shooters who want a lightweight, eye-catching option that doesn’t sacrifice practicality, there are few factory offerings that balance finish and function this well.
CHARTER ARMS CHAMELEON is an ultra-lightweight 5-shot revolver chambered in .38 Special with an aircraft-grade aluminum frame and steel components, finished in the Stingray iridescent coating. Shop this product
Design and construction
Built on the heritage of the Undercover line, this model uses aircraft-grade aluminum for a lightweight carry profile while key internals remain steel for durability. It retains the Undercover Lite philosophy of reduced weight and enhanced safety measures ideal for concealed carry. The CHARTER ARMS CHAMELEON features a 2″ barrel with fixed sights and is available with either a traditional spurred hammer or a double-action-only hammer depending on user preference and local carry practice.
Finish and ergonomics
The Stingray iridescent finish is more than cosmetic — it resists wear and stands out in a market full of matte black options. Grips and ergonomics are tuned for small-frame control, making follow-up shots manageable while keeping overall weight down for comfortable daily carry.
Caliber, capacity, and practical use
.38 Special remains a proven defensive caliber for short-range encounters. On a compact 5-shot platform like the CHARTER ARMS CHAMELEON, .38 Special provides controllable recoil, reliable feeding in a simple cylinder, and a balance of terminal effectiveness and shootability. This revolver is well-suited for pocket or inside-the-waistband carry, home defense backup, and straightforward range training with common .38 loads.
