[not so] elusive Centennial....

[Burk Cornelius]

A long time ago when I was but a wee little lad, I saw a S&W 642 and said that I would have one someday. Well I have bought a few guns over the years but never did get that elusive (yet easily obtainable) Smith Centennial.

Until today. Thanks to another OSA member who came along at just the right time with just the right deal. I am now a proud Centennial owner. S&W 642 NO LOCK!

Here she is. She will either ride in my waistband or an Uncle Mikes pocket holster.

I have two. One for my G27 and one for the j-frame. I've never needed the extra calf strap. Great holster, once you get used to it (couple days) you forget its there most of the time

I take my 640 to the range once in a while, just for old times sake.

I have had S&W revolvers before as well as other brands such as Taurus etc. Maybe it because I have never owned a circa 2000 or newer revolver but this sweetheart has a DAMN NICE TRIGGER. The staging is almost like a single action. It is smooth as butter with a distinct "notch" right before it breaks that you can hold as long as you want to then let it drop with an ever so slight increase in presssure.

Can you tell I like this thing?

Besides my regular IWB hoster I bought an Unlce Mikes pocket holster and it works well as long as you have deep pockets. I bought the size 4 even though the package recommends size 3 for small revolvers. It just fits down in the size 4 holster a little better than the size 3.

Or you can always tuck it in your pants, under your belt(the Hack Method)
I carry my Taurus 856 like this( while it doesnt have the trigger of a Smith, I like the extra round)

That is purrty. I keep my 442 in an uncle mikes pocket holster and like it.

Instead of starting a new thread I will use this one to ask everyone what color/style wood would look best on this stainless beauty.

I really like the Secret Service grips.
