So happy, just picked up this 442 new from onpointsupply.com and polished the trigger and added S&W boot cocobolo grips. Turned out great! My fiancee has a 637 so I knew Id like the 442. Anyone else have one?

BTW the wood grips make pocket carry great!

Nice!
I'm surprised how well the wood looks on the flat black finish.

LOve my 442.

It may be my tax rebate purchase

You and me both my friend. The bottom fits nice and flush and it came with new hardware, very well thought out and zero imperfections. I bought it from midwayusa. Same product number as the ones on S&W's site but cheaper.

Ill try to get better pics later

Great looking gun, I love the grips. I'd get some for 340PD but I am afraid they'd hurt way to much.

I love the 442. I recently bought the 638 also. I love the grips you have on those, they make the 442 classy! I had Crimson Trace grips on mine and switched them to the 638. I love my snubbies for carry and this is from a Glock person, too. A snubbie just feels so comfortable to carry.

Those grips really dress up that snub!! Very nice. There isn't even a ring on that cylinder yet...get shootin' man!! ;) I'm curious how the smooth wood grips would feel with stiff +P rounds...

I love how secure the stock grips feel, but they're so ugly! Very nice gun, friend...enjoy it!!

Very nice!
I love the look, and feel, of wood grips on a snubbie. I put checkered Ebony, Secret Service grips on my 638, but found I could not keep a consistent grip while firing the little beast. Sold those grips, and went back to the stock Uncle Mike's rubber boot grip.
