642 owner here and I love my j-frame! It's usually my "throw in the pocket and go" gun but a buddy of mine did make me a nice holster for it last year
As stated, the trigger is a bit on the stiff side, but lots of dry firing will smooth it out. There are after-market spring kits that will help reduce the weight if you want to go down that road.
I never did like factory grip, so I replaced mine with an Altamont so I could get my pinky on the grip.
Recoil is definitely on the stiff side with heavy loads!
That's a great price on those... definitely worth picking one up.
