Glock triggers are not very smooth, yet I have never had second shot target acquisition better than the 43x. The 43x has a low bore axis which aids in second shots (muzzle rise and recoil are reduced). I would rather put in the time to adjust from a 1911 style handgrip angle, to the glock, for reduced second shot target acquisition and accuracy. The m&p shield I had was an accurate range gun, however the 43x is a better real world ccw alternative.I agree with whoever said problem with the trigger reset is a training issue, not a gun issue. Your finger is very easy to train and with practice can adjust to anything. It's kind of like people who complain about how long the trigger pull on a striker fired semiautomatic. It's not a target gun, pull the trigger and pull until it fires. Don't creep along.
My 638 weighs 15 1/2 oz empty. I really like the "mostly" shrouded hammer that allows for single action firing if wanted. Trigger pull is just over 3 pounds in SA and you still have the DA firing option. Pictured here showingUnderstand this is a Ruger forum but, looking for opinions
Looking for a small, lightweight pocket carry 38 SPL. Considering a Ruger LCR versus a S&W model 442 performance center. Understand, the S&W is more $$$.
My local shop does not stock either guns. Need to purchase without seeing.
Appreciate anyone's opinion.
Thanks.
For 38 snub owners:I had a Ruger LCRx and it was nice but then I got a S&W 360PD. The one I got has a better trigger and it weighs 11.8 ounces. It does shoot 357s but I prefer to use 38 Special because the 357 are hard on my hands at my age.

Very nice collection. Can I ask your what ammo you prefer for range and/or defense?What Arfmel said above pretty much sums it up. I have several of those guns and my favorite is the picture on the bottom at 11.9 ounces.View attachment 38149View attachment 38150
I mostly just shoot winchester white box hard ball. I hardly ever carry any of them for protection, I carry a small glock.Very nice collection. Can I ask your what ammo you prefer for range and/or defense?
