Haven't tried one of the new bodyguards yet although I don't really have plans to either.

I am somewhat disappointed in the lack of imagination when picking the name for the new revolver though, since "Bodyguard" was already taken...

After picking this one up a few weeks ago, I'm on the lookout for a 638 for carry. IMO, the 638 coupled with CT grips will be a much better overall package for my needs than the "new bodyguard".
