442,642, 40. All "j" frames. The 40 is a little heavy because it is chromed steel, but it has the grip safety so it's a pocket carry w/o a holster. 5 rounds .38 sp. can even handle the BB and Underwood "outdoorsman" loads 158 gr. hardcast keith. S&W made a lightweight Mod 42 for a short time, but you very rarely ever see one for sale used.
Pocket carry? Pocket pistol?

I bought a stainless Smith model 640, same as the Smith 642 but heavier and a three inch barrel just because I didn't have one. I've shot it a few times but never carry it because the 642 is smaller & lighter in my pocket. I like the enclosed hammer so pocket litter doesn't get in the machinesms and plug things up. 642 is my all time favorite pocket carry handgun.
640 is on the top, 642 is on the bottom. Less then $900 for both of these revolvers. I have rubber grips for the 640.
