M&P Bodyguard 38[edit]

The M&P Bodyguard 38, introduced in 2014,[3] is the latest incarnation of a Smith & Wesson revolver using the Bodyguard moniker. It is an aluminum alloy framed revolver chambered in .38 Special, and is available with a Crimson Tracelaser sight integrated in to the grip. Like previous Bodyguard models, it has a five-round cylinder and a concealed hammer but unlike the previous models, the hammer cannot be cocked for single action fire.[4][5] The lockwork is different than any other Smith & Wesson revolver and the model has no parts interchangeable with the J-frame series.[6] Chambered in .38 Special, it is available with a Crimson Trace (previously Insight) red-dot laser sight integrated in to the grip.[7] In 2018, S&W announced a new version of the Bodyguard which lacks the integrated laser sight.It is most closely related to the Centennial models.[6]
