Description:

When the first all-steel small frame (J) revolver was introduced in 1950, it became an instant success. Originally named the Chiefs Special by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, it has become the first choice for those who insist on an allsteel, small frame revolver with greater recoil control and proven performance. This classic revolver is available in three hammer designs - the "Chiefs Special" with exposed hammer, the "Centennial" frame with fully enclosed hammer and the "Bodyguard" frame shrouded hammer. Model: 640 Caliber: .357MAG/.38+P Capacity: 5 Rounds Barrel Length: 2 1/8" Front Sight: Black Blade Front Rear Sight: Fixed Grip: Rubber Grips Frame: Small - Centennial Style Finish: Satin Stainless Overall Length: 6 5/8" Material: Stainless Steel Weight Empty: 23 oz.

    I have carried this as my back up for years. I am always surprised at how accurate this little 2" is. For better control I use oversized Packmyer grips but I can easily qualify with the stock grips. Great gun, easy to conceal and accurate.

    With 357 fires like a cannon! Carry as a back up weapon on my ankle or pocket............don't notice it at all.

    Great for off-duty/backup use. Not recommended for primary use.

    You'd be surprised with it's accuracy, and a good grip, I also changed the grips. Very concealble, and when in the 'hammerless' mode, you could put it places that wouldn't be afforded to you before, because of the hammer getting caught somewhere on your clothing. Excellent back-up gun..
