The Charter Arms Bulldog Pug is a small-frame revolver chambered in .44 Special. It runs a 2.5-inch stainless steel barrel and holds 5 rounds, giving it more power than a typical snub-nose revolver in a similarly sized package. The action is single/double action, so the trigger can be staged for a single-action shot or fired double-action. At 21 ounces it stays light enough to carry despite the larger chambering, and the grip is a full-size grip rather than a small boot grip.
