MKS Supply announces that the company will no longer be the exclusive marketer of the Charter Arms product line effective Oct. 19, 2010.


Charles Brown, President of MKS Supply said, “Charter Arms and MKS Supply have had a mutually beneficial relationship for the past five years and together we have successfully brought a number of new revolvers to market. Today we find our business philosophies are not aligned. thus making an exclusive relationship no longer feasible. We still have an inventory of Charter revolvers available to our distributors while supplies last.”


MKS Supply is the marketer of Hi-Point Firearms and the company is expanding its offering of Italian-made Chiappa firearms. Brown continued, “We're very excited about expanding our Chiappa line-the company builds exceptionally high-quality guns at very attractive prices. Chiappa has been manufacturing firearms for over 50 years and their focus is on authentic reproductions of classic historic and modern firearms. MKS Supply will be carrying a range of Chiappa's modern firearm reproductions including the venerable model 1911 and the M4-22 Carbine semiautomatic rifle-both chambered in .22 LR. It's the best of both worlds, you can own a classic design and enjoy hours of recreational shooting using inexpensive .22 caliber ammo.”


MKS is also the marketer for the Chiappa Rhino, which it called “one of the most innovative new revolvers on the market today.”
