Nick,

As far as I know,, both frames are aluminum alloy. The 642 Barrel/Cylinder are Stainless Steel. The 442 barrel/Cylinder are Carbon Steel. According to the specs they both weigh 15oz.

I got the 642 because of the SS Parts,, but IMO,, the 442 conceals better because of the darker color. It's a tradeoff and I would think that's why many of us have both.

With a pair of jean's either will drop in the pocket out of sight easily,, or at least in my jeans they do.

After useing the tipton snap caps,, the trigger on mine is acceptable "For Me", without needing to make a spring change or action smoother.

Joe
