Excellent advice all. I think I'm gonna enjoy this site!
Red Hat, I think you may be exactly right. So I wont have to send the gun in? They will ship me the part no questions asked?
And Boomboy, thanks for that link. I love that particular gun. Would be exactly what I'm looking for.
Just give them a call and tell them what you need. They should cover it for free if not it shouldn't be more than a few dollars. Here is the warranty and contact info.
I also agree that any S&W J frame is great for CC. They are great for pocket carry too.

Welcome Montana250 and notsobigal. one more to recommend the S+W 642. 2000 plus rounds and not a problem I carry it mostly IWB with a tucker holster a Little bit of a wait but well worth it, I also carry it with a mika holster for the pocket. at only 15 oz it's a very easy ccw carry. probably the most popular sold revolver for ccw.

first let me say welcome to the site, you will enjoy it. now to the matter at hand, for a carry revolver i would suggest the mateba auto revolver in a .454 casull. now whats cool is that the barrel actually aligns with the bottom cylinder instead of the top which means the force from the round goes down the arm as apposed to above it giving it a very low amount of muzzle rise. also Hell Boy carries a modified version of it so if its good enough for him than i think its good enough for me, or you.

I really like my smith and wesson 442 with the crimson trace lasergrip (pic in profile). Match that up with a high quality leather "gun wallet" and it should make you happy.

I can't help but sound like a moron with this question/response I guess.
A few years ago I bought my (now-ex)wife a nice-sized .32 S&W. When I saw the above post with the 442 in it it sort of rang a bell but looking at the picture of it I immediately recognized that the one I was thinking of had a hammer. It fit well in a jacket pocket and she loved the feel of it.
The 442 looked nice too and, of course the only reservation I had about the one I bought was that it had a hammer. She was happy with it though and that was more important.
Reality, DEAL with IT!
Course then I find it after being frustrated and actually fishing through some searches with S&W .32 revolver as my search string......
