Wheelgun Perfection: S&W Model 640

Good story on one of S&W’s J-Frames, the 640. These are great little guns and very durable, perfect for CCW.

Wheelgun Perfection: S&W Model 640

The stainless construction, combined with the longer barrel, made the 640 significantly easier to shoot when compared with the alloy guns. My friends have told me that I’ve never met a J-frame that I didn’t like. That is not quite the case but certainly, the new 640 has a lot to offer.

Spot on article, there. My 640 is very controllable with most magnum loads...the same can’t be said about the lightweight versions.

I agree with Hans about the weight. I love my 642 pro but I wish it weighed what my model 36 does. I also wish it had the 2.125" BBL. on it. Guess I'll just have to start saving for a 640.

Love my .357 640 hammerless 2" barrel. Although many ask to fire it many never ask twice IF they clear the 5 shots
