Well, even though it's flaking you can look on bright side since your 642's still a great gun. Now you have an idea about how you feel about j-frames in general, the size, weight, trigger pull, sights, carry possibilities, accuracy, or what you'd look for in your next one/not look for. It'll still probably last you a long time and I bet you got a good deal on it. And if it doesn't look so pretty I'll bet you won't be afraid to shoot the daylights out of it and you'll end up getting pretty good with it.
