    I looked this up and I wondered about them.
    Seems like they would work on my S/W 642 Airweight.
    If it only a tool for the range or personal defense; is it a luxury or a necessity?
    I imagine if you are firing it at the range much, it would be better for accuracy.
    If you are pocket carrying, I wonder if it would take up much more room and perhaps not fit into a Desantis Superfly sticky pocket holster with that grip?
    I currently use the Desantis for the 642 and a Ruger LC9 and a Walther PPS.

    No, its to bulky to fit in your pants pocket but works great in a coat pocket in cold weather. I have large hands and its a blast for shooting for long periods of time.
