I already have a 642 and an SP101 3", but I would like a 2" .357 which is pretty much snag-free when pulling from clothing...
I like the internal hammer of the 640 because if absolutely necessary, it could be fired from within a coat pocket (yes, I know that's not the greatest idea, but could be important). I also like the S&W action and trigger reset better than the Ruger.
On the other hand, the SP101 might hold up a little longer to practicing with .357 ammo before it shoots loose.
I'm leaning toward the 640, but just curious what you guys think when comparing these two great pistols... which would you pick and why?
