With all of 50 rounds through it. :cool:

And a lock, too, but that can be dealt with. I wasn't intending to pick up a snub anytime soon (I got a P9 last week, after all), but I couldn't resist the price.

Bought a box of Cor-Bon DPX to stuff it with. Intend to carry it AIWB, just like the P9 -- any holster recommendations? Tuckables, in particular?

Nice find!

I like the Mika pocket holster for my jframe.

I have had a 442 that I got from Grant last December. Has been "at hand" ever since.
Good Score!

can i take credit for this one too? I got like 2 other guys to buy 642's with my 642 thread :o

if they could make a snub hold 10 rounds of 9mm they'd really be onto something. such a small, light, easy to carry gun.

I have been very please with Dale Fricke’s Archangel, it’s not a tuckable but his Ehud and Joab are. I do not have experience with the latter two but based on what I’ve seen with the Archangel I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Someone should jump on that concept.;)

Make that three, I picked up my 442 shortly after I read that thread. Goes everywhere with me.

Primo gun at a primo price. Had mine since 1996 ; it's my "always" gun. It's 100 percent stock, and the side plate's never been off.

I use the De Santis pocket rig but may have to check other alternatives.

:o ah i once believed that too, owned a g26 for 2 years. the g26 is more like a slightly smaller g19 than a j-frame. it's nearly twice the weight, you can't carry it in a pocket, and it's simply terrifying without a holster.

really no reason not to have it on you. I'm using a desantis nemesis for pocket carry and a small smart carry for deep conceal. I've got about 250 rounds through mine, and tooons of dryfire. holding up well, as one would hope. these things are apparently good for well over 15k. :cool:

i can't seem to break 100 rounds of heavy stuff without hurting my hands, so should last awhile. :o
