No, not painful at all imho. You'll feel the recoil more than in a larger framed firearm but not in a painful or uncomfortable way in my experience. The stock grips are very comfortable for me.
I have a 642 for those times when I want something pocketable or for just around home and environs. (Of course it also qualifies as a nice BUG as well.)
Picked mine up at Bud's during the holidays. LEO price was $337...a few dollars more if paying with a credit card.
