Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

The J-frame has been riding in pockets and on ankles since 1950, and the Model 637 is one of the big reasons why. It takes the classic Chiefs Special Airweight formula, an aluminum alloy frame with a stainless steel barrel and cylinder, and adds a Crimson Trace Lasergrip straight from the factory. The result is a five-shot .38 Special that weighs right around 15 ounces and gives you a bright red aiming point the moment your hand settles into a firing grip.
Simplicity is the whole pitch here. There is no safety to fumble and no slide to rack, just a 1.875 inch barrel, a smooth double action trigger, and an exposed hammer if you want a lighter single action press for a more deliberate shot. The cylinder is rated for +P ammunition, so you can run modern defensive loads with confidence, and the matte silver finish keeps things low key for everyday carry. Integral front and fixed rear sights sit low and snag-free, which matters a lot on a gun built to come out of a pocket cleanly.
Snub-nose sights are usable but small, and in low light they mostly disappear. The wraparound Lasergrip solves that with instinctive activation: a pressure pad turns the laser on as you grip the gun naturally, no extra button hunting under stress. Owners consistently point out that the grip fills the hand better than the factory boot grip while adding very little bulk, and there is a master switch to shut the laser down for storage or dry practice with the sights alone.
This is a natural pick for anyone who wants a carry gun that just works: new revolver owners, folks who prefer a backup to a full-size pistol, or anyone who values light weight over high capacity. It rides easy all day, and when you do shoot it, that red dot on target makes practice sessions click a lot faster than iron sights alone.
Yes, the Model 637 is rated for .38 Special +P, including continuous use. That means you can carry modern defensive +P loads without worry. Just know that +P out of a 15 ounce gun has noticeable snap, so many owners practice with standard pressure loads and carry +P.
It uses instinctive activation, meaning a pressure pad on the grip switches the red laser on the moment you take a natural firing hold. There is no separate button to find under stress. A master on/off switch on the grip lets you disable the laser completely for storage or for practicing with the iron sights.
You can. The 637 has an exposed hammer, so you can thumb it back for a light, crisp single action trigger pull when you want a precise shot. In double action, the longer, heavier pull is what most people rely on for defensive use.
In most cases, yes. The Lasergrip follows the grip frame closely and does not change the barrel or cylinder dimensions, so holsters that fit a standard J-frame typically work fine. Owners regularly report using common pocket and belt holsters with this setup without any fitment issues.
