Small lightweight (under 1 pound) snubnose revolvers.

Wow, how many pockets do you have? :)

 

[RSIno1]

I like my S&W 642 but should have purchased the 638 which still has a shrouded hammer but allows for SA as well as DA.

 

[coach]

One on each hip, one on each ankle, one in each pants pocket and coat pocket. That’s almost 8 pounds of goodness.

:cool:

 

[dobegrant.45]

I have the 638 and the 642, one is always in a pocket,sometimes both of them

You forgot one in the truck, one in the car, one on the headboard, one in the desk, and one in the lazy boy.

My personal favorite .38 snubbie

 

[sharpblade7777]

These are over a pound.

I’m getting a 642 Performance Center shortly
It‘ll mainly be for the wife if she can handle the recoil. She’s fired my Colt 1911, Sig 228 with +P without issue but that wee S&W can be a stoutish pocket rocket with defensive ammo. If she doesn’t like it I’ll gladly keep it for myself and find her something else, .380 something I guess. I have a Beretta 84F but that’s too large for a purse, pocketbook carry.

I've been carrying stainless S&W 649-3 for the last 25 years.
I'm afraid they are no longer made.

 

[rugerguy]

that left handed Charter is really cool, wish they did that YEARS ago......
for us 'southpaws' as it says on the barrel........(y);)

Air weight smith/wesson snub .38 is my carry .

 

[Watertender]

Smith and Wesson 638 Airweight with a Tyler T-Grip and "pacifier"! The thumper weighs more than the revolver and commands instant respect. 14 ounce cable jack named Strother in honor of "The Captain" in Cool Hand Luke.... "What we got here is failure to communicate"!!

 

[weaselmeatgravy]

I traded into this one over a decade ago, I think it was already discontinued at that time. S&W M&P 360, a 13 oz. .357 Mag. Every time I pick up the blue case, I think that it must be empty.

Make up some stout 357 reloads with Unique. Even if you miss the fireball will vanquish the bad guys.

 

[weaselmeatgravy]

I've got a 17 oz. S&W 296 Airlite Ti .44 Special that would likely deliver a bigger fireball, say, with 2400.

And a 329PD Airlite .44 Mag but now you're talking 25 oz. and a less concealable 4" barrel.

But those don't fit the under-a-pound criteria.

Gotta love those Lock Delete kits...I've installed several in my Smith's as well.

I miss my snubby, but mine was heavy! I had the EAA 357 and didn't think I'd carry it once I got my Security Six. I'm considering getting a smaller light weight snub nose. I found a great deal on a used S&W 637 the shop wanted $300 but someone already got it by the time I went to get it.
The Taurus snubs are bigger than the J frame and LCR so I don't think they'd be great for pocket carry. If it's going to be a hip gun I might as well go with a steel one. I'm considering a Rock Island 206 as a beater gun, it's a copy of the Colt Detective Special but dimensionally it's the same size as the 637. Basically a cheaper, all steel, 6 shot 637. They make a spurless version too.

I also have one in my 317-3 Airlite Kit Gun. 8 shot .22 that weighs about 13 oz fully loaded and carries so well that you forget you have it on.

 

[s4s4u]

I have one, LCRx, and it often finds it's way into my pocket. Weighs about a pound, loaded. Not fun to shoot with 158's tho

 

[gunzo]

Pls. ignore the 4" as it's over a pound, but only pic I have at the moment.

 

[BULL'S-EYE]

This 38 Special +P LCR is a frequent pocket carry companion of mine during the cold weather months...
