I have carried and shot a 442 for years (usually as backup or a 'grab & go'.) Not too long go my wife talked me into letting her have it for a bedside gun and I have been looking for a replacement. I have a deal working right now for a 37-2. I think it will be nice to have a single action option for my old arthritic hands. I still like the Centennials but the Chief's Special is super too. I put rubber on the 442 but kept the stocks for the 37.
