The Smith & Wesson Model 940-3 is a double-action-only, concealed-hammer revolver chambered in 9mm — a purpose-built concealed carry wheelgun that accepts the same ammunition as many popular semi-automatic pistols. Its snag-free hammerless profile and compact 2.17-inch barrel make it ideal for pocket carry, ankle holsters, or backup duty use. The all-stainless construction delivers corrosion resistance and long-term durability under everyday carry conditions.
