I had a chance to carry my new 642 today while out looking at some rural properties with my brother-in-law. I thought that my P-32 would be hard to compete with as a pocket gun, but I was very pleasantly surprised at how easy the 642 is on the pocket. Although I know the P32 is technically lighter in weight, I honestly didn't notice the additional weight of the 642. I think I've finally found a ccw handgun that I can carry virtually anywhere in any attire in a fairly decent defensive caliber. Although the P32 is still a favorite, I think I like the 642 even more for ccw. This little 38 was comforting while out in some pretty remote areas, & wasn't in anyway awkward to carry. I highly recommend this revolver to anyone looking for a light weight easily concealed pocket gun.
