Charter Arms CARR?

[praharin]

Where is it? The last update I saw stated a fall '09 release, but I can't find anything else. Anyone got the inside scoop?

Thanks

Bottom line, the CARR is not vaporware, there is simply no room in Charter Arm’s production line for new items. Additionally, Charter has several other new guns and models in addition to the CARR series, and those guns we won’t even discuss until things get back to normal.

That article is nearly a year old. Anything newer than the news I heard around SHOT time saying that it would be released at the beginning of 2010?

I read on another forum that Charter is delaying introduction (no date given) until they expand their facilities. It seems pointless to give notice of introduction of a new product, then drop the line.

repeatedly no less. I would really like one, but I might just start looking for a S&W.

Sorry, that's the latest "official" word from Charter that I've seen posted other than what they had on their site stating the CARR will be released in "early 2010".
That info has since been removed from their site.

From what I read, the talk at SHOT this year was about how the gun was a no show and patents were still pending:
