A:John, the Hogue Grips will add some length to the grip for better control of the M642 and will slightly degrade ease of drawing from pocket carry. Cheers and stay safe!See 2 more answers | -

A:William, nothing. .38 Special has a maximum pressure of 17,000 PSI, .38 Special +P is 20,000 PSI. You can certainly fire the less powerful standard 38 Special Load in a +P rated revolver such as the M642. It will be milder shooting and is recommended for the recoil sensitive and has less muzzle blast which is beneficial in an indoor shooting/defense scenario where you might not have time for hearing protection.See 2 more answers | -
