I recently acquired a SW442 and, following the advice of some from this forum, bought some A-Zoom snap caps and have been dry firing hundreds of times to help smooth out the trigger. I have noticed good results as the trigger is definitely smoothing out.
My safety protocol when dry firing is to unload gun in a separate room to keep ammo away to avoid any chance of ND. I'm relatively new to revolvers and have been working the 442 into my carry rotation.
The other day I pocketed my holstered 442 and rushed out the door to start my day. After lunch I was able to get in a brief range session on my private range on my land. I usually fire my carry ammo to load fresh after a range session. I pull out my 442, make ready and take aim, then a shockingly loud and surprising "click" as the hammer fell on an A-Zoom snap cap.
Needless to say, lesson learned...
