Were they the only hammerless non J frames ever made? Odd they skipped the K-frame if so.

Other than the .38 Bodyguard which isn’t a J frame, they’re the only ones I can think of.

Yes, the 242 and 296 were the only other and largest (L Frame) of internal hammer models S&W produced which was in 1999 IIRC.

In the era of this subforum, yes. But plenty of early .32 and .38 Safety Hammerless revolvers from the later 1800s to early 1900s.

Bianchi once made Lightning Grips for J frames and K frames that shrouded the hammer.
