There is a lot to like about a lightweight .22 revolver, and the Pathfinder Lite makes the case better than most. Charter Arms built this one on an aircraft-grade aluminum frame finished in lavender anodizing, then paired it with a matte stainless barrel, cylinder, hammer, and trigger. The result is a wheelgun that tips the scale at just 21 ounces, so it rides easy in a pack or on your hip all day without wearing you down. And the lavender frame against the brushed stainless is a sharp look you will not find on many other revolvers in the safe.
The 4.2 inch barrel gives you a longer sight radius than the snubby versions, which makes a real difference when you are ringing steel or picking off cans at distance. An adjustable rear sight lets you dial in your point of impact for whatever .22 LR load you are feeding it, and the double action/single action trigger means you can run it fast or cock the exposed hammer for careful, deliberate shots. The full-size black rubber grip has finger grooves that fill the hand nicely, so smaller-framed shooters and folks with big mitts both tend to get along with it.
Rimfire recoil is next to nothing, ammo is cheap and easy to find, and the manual of arms is about as simple as handguns get. That combination makes the Pathfinder Lite a natural pick for new shooters learning fundamentals, or for anyone who wants a low-cost trainer that mirrors the feel of a centerfire revolver. It also earns its keep as a trail gun and camp companion, where the light aluminum frame and stainless hardware shrug off the miles.
Charter Arms has been building revolvers with one-piece frames since 1964, and that no-nonsense American construction shows here. Simple, sturdy, and fun to shoot, this is the kind of .22 that gets passed around the whole family at the range and comes home with an empty ammo can.
It is one of the better starting points out there. The .22 LR chambering keeps recoil and noise mild, ammo costs stay low, and the DA/SA action lets new shooters practice both trigger styles. It also has the feel of a larger centerfire revolver, so the skills you build carry over.
It weighs right around 21 ounces unloaded, thanks to the aluminum frame. That is noticeably lighter than all-steel rimfire revolvers of similar size, which makes it comfortable for long range sessions or carrying on a hike.
Yes, the rear sight is fully adjustable, so you can fine-tune your zero for different .22 LR loads. Paired with the 4.2 inch barrel and its longer sight radius, that makes this one of the more accurate-shooting options in the Pathfinder family.
The lavender color is an anodized finish on the aluminum frame, not paint, so it is bonded into the metal surface and holds up well to handling and holster wear. The barrel, cylinder, hammer, and trigger are matte stainless, which resists corrosion better than blued steel.
