This Model 637-2 Airweight is a classic J-frame round-butt revolver configured for .38 Special +P in a light, carryable package. The matte silver aluminum-alloy frame pairs with a stainless steel barrel and a matte stainless, fluted 5-shot cylinder for a durable, corrosion-resistant build.
It features double-action/single-action operation with an exposed hammer and checkered spur, allowing both swift DA use and precise SA shots. The smooth, curved trigger and black rubber boot-style grip with a finger groove aid control in a compact footprint.
Sights are simple and snag-resistant: a fixed rear groove aligned with an integral serrated ramp front sight. The 1.875-inch barrel keeps overall length compact while maintaining practical sight radius for close-range accuracy.
Factory markings include the Airweight script on the right sideplate and the S&W trade mark logo on the left sideplate. An assembly/inspection stamp marked "264" appears on the yoke/crane, aligning with typical S&W build and inspection practices.
