Additional Notes: The Smith & Wesson Model 640, commonly referred to as the “Centennial,” is a compact, double-action revolver designed for concealed carry and personal defense. Introduced in 1990, it belongs to the renowned J-frame series of handguns produced by Smith & Wesson. The Model 640 is characterized by its all-stainless steel construction, offering durability and resistance to harsh environmental conditions. Chambered in .38 Special, it typically features a five-round cylinder capacity and a snub-nose barrel configuration, providing ease of concealment. The absence of an external hammer, known as a “hammerless” design, enhances its snag-free profile, making it well-suited for concealed carry. The Model 640 remains a popular choice among law enforcement officers, as well as civilian concealed carry permit holders, due to its reliability, compactness, and reputation for accuracy in close-quarters self-defense situations.
