Owners of The Walker frequently mention the 8-round cylinder as the defining reason they chose it over other small revolvers in .22 LR. For a platform this compact, that capacity is unusual, and most owners consider it a genuine advantage for practice sessions and low-recoil carry use.

The DAO trigger pull receives mixed feedback. Some owners appreciate the consistent, snag-free pull for a carry piece, while others find the weight of a long double-action-only trigger challenging to shoot accurately at distance. Most agree it is appropriate for a 2-inch defensive revolver but can make precise target work harder.

Charter Arms' build quality tends to divide opinion across their lineup, and The Walker is no different. Owners who have run it without issues praise the fit and finish for the price. A minority report timing or lockup concerns and recommend a pre-purchase function check. Overall, buyers looking for an affordable, high-capacity compact rimfire revolver tend to be satisfied when the unit is in spec.
