I am looking into a new handgun very soon. I am pretty set on a S&W 442 airweight .38 spl. It has an internal hammer and is DAO.
I have a few revolvers and really like wheelguns. So far all the revolvers I have are SA/DA and have an exposed hammer. I have nothing against the exposed hammer and enjoy it at the range, but I am looking at the 442 as an occasional rotation in my EDC for certain occasions and would rather have a DAO concealed hammer for carry.
The opinions I am looking for are any personal experiences with this gun? Any dislikes or reasons I may want to look at a different make or model? I am not new to guns and shoot pretty often, I understand the heavy trigger pull of a DAO and I am okay with that. Any issues with revolvers with concealed hammers that I am not aware of?
Thanks in advance for any info
