What holster are you using for your 642?

Blackhawk leather speed classic. I started using it recently, pretty happy so far. Feels good on the hip and holds the gun securely.

I use one of these myself.
 
Went with the Desantis Nemesis, which seems like a nice little holster. Bud

Lobo modified pancake works great for me, keeps J-frame nice and tight against my side and is more comfortable than IWB.
 
Lobo Model 1 Pancake. Add Detail Boned, Add Inner Hammer Shield.

Yes it will work with Laser Grips.

I am using a Nemisis Pocket Holster. Not real impressed with reholstering in it. Looking at a Mika probably to replace it with.

I use a "Wild Bill's Consealment" OWB with the matching speedloader case.
This, with my 2 1/2" HD belt works for me. As you can see, I can no longer use a pocket holster with the Hogue grips.

The Bianchi Lightning (top) works well carrying OWB and the Bianchi Professional (bottom) works well for IWB...
 
I use a Rafter S sharkskin OWB, Pocket carry I use a R.L.Graham sharkskin. I really like sharkskin!

I use several for my M649, Galco Ankle Glove, Galco belly band, Mika pocket. Ideal for a Centennial model.

Recently bought one too. I really like it. I carry a Taurus 85 CH. This holster is leading me away from the Airweights for my next snub. (... well maybe not.)
Depending on where your belt loops are positioned you can find yourself chasing it's position a little. However thats probably true for most holsters.
I've heard it works with LCR, 2" sp101 as well.
Retention is great. A forward rock releases it smoothly. I like the draw. It requires me to be aware of my grip.

I struggle with IWB.
 
IWB: Desantis Cozy Partner
OWB: Bianchi Minimalist
Pocket: Blackhawk
Sweats/glove box/desk drawer: Uncle Mike's IWB

I find the Cozy Partner to be very comfortable, but I'll probably replace it with something more like the Wraith, with the loops fore and aft of the gun instead of on the cylinder to make it a bit slimmer overall.
 
I carry my 442 in my pocket, IWB, and OWB, and below is my list:

Pocket - Desantis
IWB - Lobo Gunleather
OWB - Bluegrass Holsters, I think he is out of business, but made a nice simple holster
