Pocket Pistols
I just got my new Ruger LC9 for "pocket" EDC, haven't even fired it yet and ran across the 642!
The LC9 looks like a fine 9 and I hope it serves you well. Since you call it a pocket EDC I will be interested on your feedback after you add a pocket holster and get it loaded and then how you like carrying around 18 ounces in your pocket?
Since I hope to never have to use my EDC but may have to tote it around until tomorrow or 10 years from now, weight to me (lack of) is paramount.
Nothing like having to wear cargos or suspenders from here on out.
It tried pocket carrying a 17 ounce loaded PM9 and it was even too heavy for my tastes.
If you continue to look at pocket revolvers continue looking at S&W but check out their lightest offerings, features, prices and see what fits your bill.
The S&W Bodyguard Series at 14.3 ounces and including a CT laser would make my short list if I were just starting out shopping for a pocket snub.

Or the Ruger LCR at 13.5 ounces. I know...blasphemy.
Moving on to even lighter units in the S&W line-up, the M&P 340 at 13.3 ounces and the 340 PD even lighter yet (at a price) might be of interest.
If it is too large or heavy, in the long run it will be tempting to head out the door without it. Just when you might need it.
I couldn't get too fired up about pocket carry until I got into the 12-13 ounce range.
Just some considerations.
