I decided not to alter at this time. I can shoot it well at the distance it was intended for and it is very dependable.
I think if I start to carry my Shield as my EDC I might convert it with the kit for some comparison shooting since I have the kit on hand now.
Did put a Apex DCAEC in my FS...
Thanks everyone for the replies! I think I'm going to try the kit and see how it works and then decide whether to keep it or change it back.
I have a Shield 9mm that I want to start using as my EDC so it might stay converted.
I agree with everyone that states in the time it would be needed...
Just wondering if I should put an Apex kit in my EDC S&W 442?
Love the gun and has been my EDC for the last year and a half. Shoots great for what it's intended for but as many J-Frame owners know the trigger is heavy.
I've heard (also remember them talking about this in the class) you...
Yeah I've been watching the price for years and they've run $50 more than the all black/blued version at this Cabela's. They must have gotten a major shipment in because the gun was test fired back in June 2013...makes me wonder how many they ordered.
For what the salesman said they had a bunch.
Hope this...will try to get better photos with an actual DSLR camera soon.
They're both a lot of fun to shoot and my wife like the Shield better, says she can get abetter grip on it.

Just purchased this on Thursday at Cabela's, can't wait to get it to the range. If your in the market for this version they have a big sale going on...started on 3-13.
It was on sale for $499.99 and with the three mags and the other accessories can beat that in my book.
Thanks,
Josh...
Nice to see all the responses...
Wow...a lot of 442 (J-frame) fans out there, makes me feel even better than I did already! I will get some pics taken soon and posted.
According to the envelope inside it was built/finished 7-6-12, just 1 day after my daughter turned 10. I think when she's...
Hope all is well!
Just purchased a Model 442 after shooting a friends 642 with +P's...it was so nice I purchased one the next day! I liked his stainless but the black 442 just called my name.
Will be my carry gun for now.
Any 442 owners out there?
Thanks,
Josh
I was at a local store and they had a 5903 w/2 mags and the box...they want $449, should have put a down payment down.
It was in really good shape...is this a good deal?
I will probably go back Monday and see if it's still there and do the above.
Thanks,
Josh
Well it's out of lay-away and home for good...not getting ride of this one, it's the gun I've wanted for a long time and my first S&W!
4013TSW with 4 mags (found 2 mags at a show this weekend including the higher capacity).
Loading up some ammo and heading to the range.
Not sure if I...
Non-rail
I like the 4013tsw I have on payment right now because it doesn't have the rail...it is an early year for the model.
But the 40CS is calling my name!
Thanks,
Josh
Hi all!
New to this site but since I just put a very nice condition 4013tsw on layaway I decided to join in on the S&W fun.
Question…after putting this on layaway I’ve also run across a good condition 40CS and wanted to know if it would be worth having both? I was planning on using the...
