Carry your S&W Airweight revolver with confidence using our precision-molded Kydex IWB holster designed specifically for the Smith & Wesson 642, 442, and Airweight J-Frame lineup. Built on custom vacuum-formed molds, this holster provides secure retention, a smooth draw, and consistent lockup with zero rattle or shifting.
The closed-end muzzle fully encloses and protects the short J-Frame barrel, preventing debris from entering the holster and enhancing long-term reliability. A mid-height sweat guard shields the revolver’s frame and improves all-day comfort. The holster’s slim profile minimizes printing even with the wider cylinder typical of revolvers.
This model fits the Smith & Wesson 642, 442, Airweight, and similar J-Frame revolvers with a 1.875” barrel and enclosed (hammerless) or shrouded hammer designs.
Not compatible with 3” J-Frames, exposed-hammer models, or bodyguard-style polymer frames.
