Also, why didn't this get posted in the REVOLVER forum?
Patently untrue. I have read of instances of lock failure in J, K, and N-frames, in Scandium and in steel framed models.I would like to point out that lock failure has only been documented on the lightweight 44 magnum smiths.
Yes they can be removed but that could lead to legal complications should such a revolver be used in a SD shooting.
Rather than a mechanical problem (in almost all cases), it is more of an insult to those who would rather not have safety mandated. It has a nanny state ramification and is one more testiment regarding the supposed inability of shooters to utilize the one safety device we all possess, that one between our ears.

Well, in the government's defense, about half of "the people" are morons.Every time I picked the gun up there was that keyhole staring back at me, reminding me that my government thinks I'm a moron and has the authority to impose laws upon me accordingly.

Its for two reasons:I do not understand this hate of the S&W locks.

Yes.Would you pass up getting a 642/442 if it had the internal lock on it?

but that's the half who don't own guns, right?
Yes I would pass on any gun that had an internal lock. They are not suitable for serious purpose IMO.
Thankfully, it appears that the current company calling itself S&W's corporate greed, has finally exceeded its corporate arrogance. They now make lock free J-frames.
I would purchase one of the lock free J-frames over a Ruger LCR. Good luck with your decision! TJ
