What is your S&W? A .357? That has to just rock when you shoot it.

Great photos, too. I like the depth of field control and framing.

Very nice pics! Is that a S&W 642 revolver? I have a 442 and love it.

Yup. It's a 642.

My every day carry is the 642. Wish they'd lose the stupid internal lock though.

They did.

Mine is brand new and it has no lock.



A couple more.

Thanks ya'll!

It's a .38 Special +P. It does have a bit of a "whack" to it when it's stoked with the +P ammo. The .357 would be brutal.

My favorite revolver to shoot is the 340pd. 12oz, .357 / .38 special +P

You would think th recoil would be horrible, but to me it is less that the others

I wanted one of those, but their price tag is a little out of my reach right now.

I read they only made 4000 642's without the "Hillary hole", so you must be lucky.

I had mine disabled.

In any event, today's Smiths are a far cry from the ones of the past unfortunately, but still the most reliable revolvers out there for concealed carry.
