Welcome aboard!
I've got a 642 and it goes EVERYWHERE with me.
Not a tackdriver, but with a little practice will definitely get the job done.
I recommend it
Where in East Texas are you?

After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring.
He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

642 & 442
My wife has a 642 and I have a 442. Great little ccw's but not fun range guns (IMO). They are easy to carry and will get the job done. They are especially good carry guns in the warmer summer months. Easy to carry in a pocket holster in shorts or jeans. We fire ours just often enough to be somewhat proficient for S.D.
I think they are a great bargain since they hold their resale so well. It is hard to find a used one around here (Frisco, Tx). When looking to buy ours we looked at gun shows, gun shops and online but didn't find any used ones. We finally went ahead and bought new ones. I am confident that if I should, for some reason, have to sell ours it should not be a major problem and should return most of the money invested in them.
I started another thread along these lines at http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/sho ... p?t=252567 with a lot of interesting responses. My forum name is "TxPhantom" on that and most other forums.
Go for it. Get a J frame of some kind you will like it.
