The 625 Mountain Gun is heavy. I have an El Paso Saddlery Tom Threepersons for mine . Hard to keep my pants on when wearing that thing.

Mebbe some finger exercises would be easier!!

Nose picking will lead to soft skin on your trigger finger!

WAH-LAH! I believe we have stumbled on the real cause of your blister

Does Dr. Scholls make a Trigger Shoe insert?

You have to shoot more so that the blister becomes a callous.

I currently own a Browning BDA (the Beretta 84 sister ship). I have in the past owned a few Beretta 84's and BDA's. I cannot speak for all versions of these guns but my current BDA has pronounced gripping ribs running vertically down the trigger face. After 100 rds of .380 these ribs could be your source of irritation. These 2 models of basically the same gun are the best of the .380's.

Problem Solved..!!!

After weighing all the pros and cons of carrying the Model 84..Beretta .380...or a Browning Hi-power...Mountain Gun....even a .45 Auto......just went back to my S&W Model 36-1.///....J Frame with a 3 inch barrel......Galco makes a Real Neat 6 round Ammo Holder that folds over your Belt.....so small no one would guess you are carrying extra 6 rounds........Hey...anything over a 11 round shoot-out.....would be a major shoot out anyway.......the Model 36 with the 3" inch barrel is light...easy to carry....and i put some oversize grips to fit my bigger hand.......easy to conceal.......and with the Hollow Points that have the peculiar looking little "needle" down inside...(Ive heard these referred to as "secret service loads".....they should handle just about any situation.....I do appreciate all the advice and response..........Gerhard
