She's virginal no more!
I swung by a buddies on the way home today and popped off a few rounds with the Charter Arms Undercover. I only put 35 rounds through it but it shoots pretty well! Funny thing is, I shoot it better double action than single action!
Here's 10 rounds of 125gr +p Remington JHP at ten yards.
And here's ten rounds of my soft cast 358429HP over 3.5 gr of Bullseye
I'd say that'll do for defensive use.
She's ready for action

For some reason I am the same way with most snubbies.
I have several of then that I shoot much better DA than single action. To me it since I am putting 8-10# of pressure on the trigger it mages the grip that much tighter. I have large hands and most have really small grips so every little bit of hold helps.

I think that's the deal with me, too. Maybe with some practice I could get a good trigger finger placement, but I wasn't hitting it right. I had very limited time and really wanted to make sure it'd work in a defensive situation. The small, slick grips surely don't help, but I am loathe to put rubbers on it. I'd say its ready for me to make a pocket holster for it and it'll ride in the bike!
You can find some wood CA grips on fleabay.
and a S&W Tee grip if needed... Those little CA .38s are way under rated. I have owned 3-4 found a couple for friends etc. Once at a small local match a gal started with her charter Off Duty when she got to the reload, she pulled her husband's CA .38 out and finished the string.
