[QUOTE="V1K1NG0, post: 979575, member: 5214"] Have my 2 in 101 on right now :gun2: I've owned a 642 and SP-101 w/2 in and 3 inch barrels. 642 was more comfortable to pocket carry than the 101's because it was lighter. 101's were more comfortable to shoot 38+p rounds in because they were heavier. I was more accurate as well. When loaded w/ 357's they thumped but with right grips it was not a problem. I eventually just used the 101's for OWB carry but still pocket carry them in larger jackets. Currently saving up for another 642. Never had problem with the lock. One thing I learned about carrying a snubbie in the front pants pocket is that (for me) it was sometimes difficult to deploy in some instances when wrestling with someone (self defense class). One instance i got my hand stuck in pocket and pinned on ground. :nutkick: My pants were too tight. Got some looser fitting ones (with bigger pockets) and it helped a little bit but still wasn't as fast as with OWB. There are pros and cons to both. Just something to think about. [/QUOTE]
