Smith & Wesson Model 642.
Honestly I'd take a dull pocket knife over a Black Widow when backed into a corner. Though it is darn fun to shoot.At work, a bobbed hammer 360 PD (Speer SB .357s/Kramer PH) in one front pocket and a NAA Black Widow (CCI Maxi-mag TNTs/duct tape and cardboard holster) in the other.
Out of work, a 5" 629 (full power 165 gr. JHPs/FIST 1A kydex-leather hybrid holster) strong side IWB, a Taurus 605 2 1/4" .357 (full house 125 gr. Remingtons/Mika PH)weak side front pocket and the omnipresent Black Widow in the other front pocket.
I carry a Spingfeild Milspec, 5" 1911A1. On hot days when walking downtown it's in a Bulldog universal holster tucked into the back of my pants. When wearing a jacket or an open button-up as an over shirt I carry it in an old M7/M9 rig. I always carry two extra mags and a knife(useualy a little fixed-blade I picked up for dirt cheap at a flea market)
I'm also looking into a PPK/s as a bug or just for pocket carry on hot days once my bank account allows it.
640-1 with three reloads.
How do you carry the 640-1? I've got mine in a Galco Kingtuk IWB holster at about 5:00 and it works very well. And I carry only 1 reload ... how are you carrying your 3?
I try to wear loosely pocketed pants or cargo shorts. I've never actully held one, but I know a guy who carries a Czech knock-off in 9mm markov in his front pocket.I carry a PPK/S and it may be a bit too heavy for pocket carry but works great IWB. Depends on the pocket I guess!
