This "combat" review by Nutnfancy focuses on the Smith & Wesson Model 642CT Centennial lightweight revolver chambered in .38 Special +P. The reviewer highlights its proven reliability, simplicity, and ease of use, making it a good option for beginners, women, concealed carry, backup, or home security. Key features include its lightweight (15.5 oz), full stainless steel barrel, tough aluminum frame, tight lockup, good trigger, and Crimson Trace laser grips. Downsides mentioned are limited capacity (5 rounds), high cost, potential bulk for concealment, poor sights, and the need for speedloaders. The reviewer compares it favorably to semi-automatics in terms of weight but prefers the S&W "Bodyguard" 638 for its shrouded hammer for longer-range shots, noting the 642CT is intended for self-defense within 15 yards.
