Smith & Wesson Model 442 Airweight

Lightweight, Reliable, and Built for Everyday Carry

This Smith & Wesson Model 442 Airweight is a modern classic, offering dependable .38 Special +P firepower in a compact, snag-free package. With its lightweight aluminum alloy frame and fully enclosed hammer, it’s tailor-made for discreet concealed carry—whether in a pocket, purse, or IWB holster. This example is chambered in .38 Special +P and features a sleek matte black finish that’s both durable and low-profile.

No-Lock Simplicity, Centennial Style

What makes this 442 stand out is its no-lock configuration—a sought-after variation for shooters and collectors alike. It stays true to the Centennial-style lineage by eliminating the internal safety lock, delivering a clean side profile and simplified mechanics. The revolver is double-action only, with a smooth, deliberate trigger pull designed for confident carry without an external safety or exposed hammer. This particular example is in very good condition, showing normal signs of use and expertly maintained by its previous owner. Hardcase included.

Whether you’re looking for a trustworthy daily carry piece or adding a desirable no-lock Airweight to your collection, this Model 442 delivers classic S&W quality in a package that’s as practical as it is iconic.
