Smith & Wesson Model 642 CT - .38 Special. This is a factory model that comes fitted with a set of Crimson Trace laser grips.

Fire Mode

On the gun page this revolver is listed as "Fire Modes: DA/SA" but I guess that's a typo. How could one fire a hammerless revolver in single action mode? -- PeeWee055 (talk) 16:24, 25 June 2015 (EDT)

Historical Significance

So, should we put down how this was the revolver used by Bernie Goetz? Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 20:04, 13 November 2016 (EST)
