Charter Arms 79K (79K38) .380 Semi-Auto Pistol

Anyone know where I could obtain parts for this pistol?

Any idea what it's worth? I believe it was made in the early 80's. Mine is in excellent condition. It's stainless steel.

It would also be interesting if I could find a manual for it, but I'm sure that's pretty unlikely.

Appreciate any info! [:)]

    You got a real interesting pistol there! According to my references it was made in very small quanity by the original "Charter Arms Corp" for only one year prior to them going BELLY UP in 1989.
    The chances of geting spare parts and a manual for it are very slight.
    I don't know of anybody who collects Charter Arms guns, but there are a number of folks out there who collect small automatics. You could post on their site to see if anyone would be interested? There is one guy there who is specially interested in obscure automatics, he uses the handle "Gun Runner John"

    Thanks for the info.

    I'm not really looking to sell it, just trying to find out more about it. It would still be interesting to have an idea of what it's worth. [:)]
