Yep, hard to beat a 442/642 (for pocket carry)
but yeah, I've bought, sold and traded a gozillion of 'em.
I have a 1964 model 37 that my dad carried for 40 years. I continue the tradition

I'm not bragging or patting myself on the back...quite the contrary. I'm actually kinda embarrassed to admit this, but I don't think anybody has owned more Jaybirds than I have. Maybe ldp4570, but yeah, I've bought, sold and traded a gozillion of 'em.
The model 442 Airweight Centennial and model 38 Airweight Bodyguard (NOT to be confused with S&W's "new" Bodyguard) are my two favorites. Of course, I pocket carry too. If I were gonna hip carry, I'd go with a Chief's Special model 36 or perhaps the all stainless model 60.
As much as I hate to admit it, the Ruger LCR is probably a better revolver than the J frame. They are more accurate, the trigger is smoother and the damned thing just feels better in the hand.
Either way, the little 5 shot wheelie is damned hard to beat. There's a reason why the J frame has survived all these years and they still see lots and lots of service.
