Used to be not uncommon decades ago (and more! ) for a person to empty his pockets at home and have a derringer amidst the penknife, keys and change. Now, if I'm correct, I think the 442/642 has taken over that role. I think even I would be surprised how many Centennial-style revolvers dwell in American pockets amidst the other personal items.
