I agree you just can't stop with just one snubie.

Be careful on lightening up the trigger pull. To do so on a carry gun is definitely not recommended. I had a NY-1 trigger spring installed in my Glock 27 to Increase the pull from 5 to 8 pounds. This in an attempt to minimize an accidental discharge. You do not want to be presented in court as a "reckless" individulal who "knew more than the manufacturer" and created a hazardous "hair-trigger" situation. Yes I know it is DAO with a stronger pull by far than most handguns but those who don't know will be sitting in the jury box and be hammered with your decision to lighten the trigger. Recommended reading is Massad Ayoob's take on this.

I got my 642-1 back Wednesday and the forcing cone now looks great. I think they may have smoothed up the trigger a bit too because it isn't too bad now with stock springs. I'm happy.

You might find that putting a drop of very light oil down into the trigger action and the hammer will lighten up the action. Then dry fire the heck out of it. That has really made a difference in these guns. S&W 6401-1. S&W 627-5. Charter Bulldog 44 spl.

Finally got the chance to shoot my new 642 yesterday. Very fun to shoot. The Remington 148gr Target wadcutters I was shooting shot to POA and I am very happy about that. My Blackbird pocket holster from Pocket Concealment Systems came yesterday too and it works great. Highly recommend them.

That Uncle Mike's grip is great. No harder to conceal and much easier to shoot. They are the only shoes my J Frames wear. I have a drawer full of fancy wood and boot grips. NOTHING beats the original Uncle Mike's

The 642 is my "go to" pocket carry gun...
