Description:
Guns Listing ID: 603750



The Smith & Wesson Model 642-2 is a popular, lightweight, concealed-carry revolver from S&W‚s J-frame \"Airweight\" series.
Key specifications include:
Caliber: .38 Special +P rated (safe for +P ammunition)
Action: Double-action-only (DAO) with a fully enclosed hammer (no external hammer spur, making it snag-free for pocket or holster draw)
Capacity: 5 rounds
Barrel length: 1.875 inches (snub-nose)
Frame: Aluminum alloy (lightweight)
Cylinder and barrel: Stainless steel (matte silver finish)
Overall length: Approximately 6.3 inches
Weight: About 14.6–15 ounces (unloaded)
Sights: Fixed integral front ramp and rear notch
Grips: synthetic rubber boot-style grips
Other features: The \"-2\" dash number indicates the engineering change that added the internal key lock safety (introduced around 2002), visible as a small keyhole above the cylinder release on the left side of the frame.
This model is highly regarded for everyday concealed carry due to its compact size, light weight, reliability, and simplicity—no manual safety or cocking required.
Regarding the serial number CHF2293, S&W uses three-letter prefixes on modern J-frames, with ranges loosely corresponding to production periods (though not strictly sequential across models). Prefixes around Cxx/CYx/CZx often fall in the mid-2010s (e.g., similar prefixes like CYN/CYU documented around 2015–2016). CHF likely dates to roughly that era (mid-2010s.)
As a used example it is in Very Good Condition with minimal usage marks.
