Charter Arms 53801 Off Duty Coyote 380 ACP 5rd 2" Matte Stainless Ported Barrel & Cylinder, Anodized Aluminum Frame, Black Finger Grooved Rubber Grip, Concealed Hammer

The Charter Arms 53801 Off Duty Coyote 380 ACP is a compact, lightweight revolver engineered for concealed carry and backup duty. Built on an anodized aluminum frame with a 2-inch ported matte stainless barrel, this five-round cylinder revolver delivers a balance of compact ergonomics and operational simplicity that appeals to law enforcement officers, armed civilians, and tactical professionals seeking a reliable deep-concealment platform.

The ported barrel design manages recoil signature and muzzle rise, critical considerations in the 380 ACP cartridge. The concealed hammer eliminates snagging hazards during holster draws and retention situations, a proven design feature in professional duty and defensive carry applications. The black finger-grooved rubber grip provides positive purchase and weapon control during presentation, while the 1.93-pound weight distribution maintains shootability without adding bulk. Chambered in 380 ACP, the Off Duty Coyote offers a low-recoil defensive option suitable for range training, duty rotation, and carry scenarios where compact profile takes priority.

This model is purpose-built for operators who require a secondary firearm, backup gun, or primary carry piece in restrictive environments. The included moon clips enable rapid reloads—a practical asset when training or responding to multiple-engagement scenarios. The revolver platform provides inherent reliability without magazine dependency, making it suitable for extended storage, duty rotation, and field conditions where semi-automatic reliability margins carry higher risk tolerance. Users in patrol, detective work, offshore security, and civilian defensive carry benefit from the Charter Arms design philosophy: mechanical simplicity, proven metallurgy, and purpose-matched ballistics.
