Smith & Wesson Model 642 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

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 Pro Series is a variation on the Model 42 Centennial Airweight® that integrates the time-tested features of the original with modern advancements and competition specifications and features. A moon clip is a ring-shaped or star-shaped piece of metal designed to hold multiple cartridges together as a unit for simultaneous insertion and extraction from a revolver cylinder.

Ordered the 642 Pro series with Moon Clip cylinder cut. I received 3 TK brand moon clips ( ) and cylinder was indeed cut for it. I have not had a chance to fire the gun but everything about the description and picture is "as described." If you are unsure,

Disappointed in S&W workmanship quality control, particularly for a pro series. The 642 I received had a flawed barrel with a long groove/gouge along the right side.
