Anyone use a supertuck for a S&W 642-2? How well does it conceal? Any complaints?

Well, I just ordered one for my 642. I hope it works.

Give us a review because I have a Don Hume IWB for my 642 that hasn't been all I hoped for and I may get the Supertuck. I like the Supertuck for my M&P 40...very comfortable and secure.

can't wait for the review.

Will do.

You guys should've just asked

I love my supertuck for my little revolver. I adjusted the cant a bit, and it fits great and pulls the butt of the gun in nice and tight against my back to where its barely noticeable even with snug fitting clothes. As with all supertucks, its REALLY comfortable too. With the horsehide, the thing is even softer and molded to the shape of my back/hip perfectly. Ease of presentation of the weapon is the same as with all supertucks. The retention of the firearm is also excellent. I do happen to use my pocket holster more (cuz I'm lazy), but I use this every Sunday when I dress up a little nicer for church and don't want to wear my baggy jeans. I'd highly recommend it to those looking for an IWB option for their snubby revolver.

husky390, let us know how you like your supertuck when you get it. And don't forget the pics!

Thanks stryker, that was the info I was looking for. I plan to use mine when I'm stuck wearing dockers and a polo shirt and the pocket holster just doesn't cut it. What I'm hoping this will do, is eliminate any "printing" issues, it wouldn't go over too well on sunday morning.

Well, unbelievably I received my supertuck today! I ordered this thing last Thursday! I can't believe it. It's gotten here faster than the hunting knife I ordered two weeks ago.
The holster looks great. It is more comfortable than my IWB clip holster. So far I have dropped it down to the top notch on the back side and the second from the top on the front. I think I'm going to have to raise it a little for it causes a bulge on my hip when I'm wearing dockers. I can't wait to start trying this thing out.

Stryker, what holes do you have yours at for your Smith? I'm running into a couple of issues with mine. If I have it set at the lowest setting, I have a bulge on my hip. If I raise it, the butt of the gun then will profile through my shirt.

Husky390... make the front belt clip up one hole and then make the back belt clip one lower then the front. It gives it a cant angle to the back. Making the grip hide toward the back of your body. Give that a try. Good luck.
