Product Description
Smith & Wesson J-Frame revolvers have had your back since 1950. These small revolvers were designed to fire a full power round and are as simple and easy to use as they are reliable. Available in various calibers and with three diverse hammer designs, it is no surprise that the Smith & Wesson J-Frame has become the most popular, small-frame, defense revolver on the market. The Model 642 integrates the time-tested features of the original with modern advancements.
The 642 is built on Smith & Wesson's venerable ultra-compact J-frame design making it ideal for deep concealment. The 642 series sports a 5-shot capacity with the ability to accept +P ammunition for increased stopping power, giving users access to full-power rounds while remaining light and easy to carry in day-to-day life. An internal hammer design gives users a snag-free draw while keeping the revolver to a strict double-action trigger for increased safety against accidental discharges from bumps and drops.
The Airweight series features an aluminum frame for greatly reduced weight without compromising strength. This model is chambered in .38 Special and features a matte silver finish with black synthetic grips. It does not feature an internal lock on the frame.

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
