@Rich_Jenkins just throwing this out there if you're still on the fence. Grab a gun currently has no lock 442's for $319 (plus 7.99 shipping).

I did something similar - 642 for G43. Of course, I'm required to carry issued ammunition in either, and the only option for 38 is 158 gr LHP +P - very ouchy in an Airweight. Even then, not sure that 5 rounds of 148 WC in a heavy trigger pistol with marginal sights is a better choice than 7 rounds of 147gr JHP 9mm in a pistol that I can shoot accurately, quickly, and reload in a timely fashion.
The only argument I see for snubbies anymore (except for the UNDENIABLE cool factor of the round gun) is if you're pocket carrying, which, frankly, is way down the list of priorities for me.
Okay, I have a lot of time carrying a shield/g43/637.
To me shield/g43 outshoots the snubbie big time. I also prefer the more rounds and faster reload. Better sights and more powerful bullets.
I sold my shield and g43. Kept the 637 because I was carrying tda guns. As soon as I went back to shooting the snubbie I was reminded. Mine has a apex kit. That helped a lot with the da pull. But man getting shots on target and follow up shots with +p ammo is substantially worse to me. Also shot my dads lcr quite a bit. But I short stroke that trigger when I shoot it fast. I actually shoot the 637 better myself.

It's decidedly lacking in the cool factor but I make my pocket holsters out of plastic water jugs. No other material comes close for functionality. Since I took this picture, I put white duct tape over the staples.
When I give private lessons, if I need to demo, I use the student's gun. That way they don't think I'm using a tricked out SCCY to be able to shoot well.
^^^That's slick!^^^ (yeah, pun intended)
Seriously though, clever application.

There's nothing civil about this war
