My other J Frames bloody my right thumb after about 150 rounds and I usually keep going for another 50 to 100 rounds. The BG38 felt recoil is slightly lighter than with other light weight J Frames and it does not tear up the thumb due to the location of the cylinder release. It will callous your hand though.

I would borrow or rent a BG38 and fire it before replacing a 442. The 442 is a fine revolver.
Wow, seriously man, that's fairly impressive. From my perspective at least. Maybe I should work on my hand strength!

Oh, no no no, not replacing the 442, just thinking about adding the BG sometime soon. Thanks for the input.
