    Default S&W 642

    I just bought my wife a S&W 642 today.

    She's shot my Glocks & Ruger many times & likes to shoot, but she just doesn't have the strength in her hands/arms to rack the slides on them. We looked at all the small semis, but she couldn't operate any of them. Then we tried a S&W & she fell in love with it.

    Anyway, when we took the labrador for her daily walk this afternoon I pulled the gun out of my pocket & gave it to her. She immediately checked to make sure it was unloaded & said, "Where's the bullets?" I handed her 10 of them & her earplugs, then took the dog further up the road & waited. It didn't take long for her to shoot them all & when she caught up to us she asked if I had any more.

    I guess she likes it. Can't get that from QVC!

    Damn fine revolver indeed. Too bad .38 ammo is so hard to find.

    I bought the S&W at Cabelas. I had over $60 Cabelas Bucks & a coupon for $100 off for a >$500 purchase. The gun was $479 & with the ammo, that gave me over $500. Soooo....I only had to pay out about $340. For a new S&W! I can live with that.

    They had plenty of .38 Spl ammo. That's about the only pistol ammo they had a variety of.
