I like that it's sub-$400, uses a common .38 shell, and is not so powerful my wife wouldn't shoot it. I'm going to keep looking, but I've started a list now.

I carry a similar pistol every day. I carry the S&W Bodyguard 38. It is basically the same pistol as the 642, except it has a laser and the cylinder release is on the top instead of the side.

I highly recommend it!
