It features a five-shot cylinder, utilizes moon clips for 9mm headspacing, and sports a snag-free concealed hammer\u2014making it a compact option for deep carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The updated version includes a fluted, one-piece barrel, an XS <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/truglo-tritium-ar-15-ak-front-sight-posts\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sw-meet-the-all-new-model-940-revolver\" title=\"S&amp;W: Meet the All-New Model 940 Revolver!\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"169\">tritium front sight<\/a>, and a U-notch rear, giving shooters a clearer sight picture right out of the box. <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/brand\/smith-and-wesson\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sw-meet-the-all-new-model-940-revolver\" title=\"S&amp;W: Meet the All-New Model 940 Revolver!\">Smith &amp; Wesson<\/a> also dropped the internal lock, which many shooters will likely see as a plus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grips come in the form of VZ Black Cherry stocks, contoured for moon clip compatibility. The grips offer solid texture without being overly aggressive, helping the revolver ride smoothly in a pocket or holster without catching on the draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-see-also-the-s-amp-w-m-amp-p-k-frame-a-classic-six-gun\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/the-sandw-mandp-k-frame\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sw-meet-the-all-new-model-940-revolver\" title=\"S&amp;W: Meet the All-New Model 940 Revolver!\">The S&amp;W M&amp;P K-Frame \u2013 A Classic Six Gun<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While revolvers chambered in 9mm remain a niche choice, the 940 gives those who already run 9mm a convenient backup option without the need to stock another caliber.
