The AirLite PD series builds around a scandium-alloy J-Frame with an enclosed hammer for a snag-resistant profile and double-action-only operation. The titanium alloy cylinder keeps weight to a minimum while maintaining strength for .357 Magnum.
The 1.875 in two-piece barrel uses a steel liner within a barrel shroud, balancing durability and light weight. The shroud is factory-marked with the caution "NO LESS THAN 120 GR BULLET." Sighting is straightforward and fast thanks to a replaceable green fiber-optic front blade paired with a fixed top-strap rear channel.
Controls and features are focused on practical carry. The internal key lock is included from the factory. The revolver wears textured black rubber boot-style grips with molded S&W logo medallions for a secure hold. The frame has a black finish while the titanium cylinder shows a matte light gray finish.
This is a 5-round DAO revolver with an overall length of about 6-5/16 in and an unloaded weight of approximately 12 oz. It is built in the United States and corresponds to S&W mfg part number 163062.
