I was told both.
I went ahead and got the 442 UC, dead front sight and all. I took JEC up on the reaching out invite for new sight. I compared my front to an XS for my LCR that is same color / style and the 442 UC is just plain defective. The ring is barely visible in daylight compared to my LCR. Plan on shooting it this week. Can’t wait to try the grips. Just dry firing the trigger is ok, sure it will get better with time. My PC 642 has a better trigger but not by much. I am curious if the UC trigger has had any work or if it is result of only new geometry / springs.
I do wish Federal or the like would offer a truly “light” load for the .38. 3-D used to offer a great 100 grain DEWC ( dual end wadcutter ), that was coming out like 725FPS, basically a .32 it was my go to practice round in my old 337 and really comfortable.

I dont know that there is an issue with the front sight paint. It's a darker green color. The issue is the tritium not glowing in darkness, vial probably broken.
I’m currently in the market for another small frame revolver specifically for belt carry (enigma) so weight is less of a factor. When I am thinking about the guns in this category for belt carry the Kimber k6 with 6 rounds of .38 seems competitive with the 632 UC (6 rounds, real sights, good trigger) and from what I can tell from handling a k6 the size increase seems marginal to the point of not mattering for a lot of body types. For those of you choosing the new UC guns for belt carry over other options in the space what factors sealed the deal for you on the UC guns?
My 432 had a bit of a rough ride, but it's here.
@JEC what are the chances a 22LR version would be added down the line? Would love a rimfire trainer. Also really hoping the 3" K-Frame happens. But imma need a couple more of these first.
Yikes - did it go down on gravel?My 432 had a bit of a rough ride, but it's here.

Sorta appears like it. It's not deep, just finish wear. While I'm not impressed, the gun was bought to be used.
Just Pitina! Some charge extra for that.
Look forward to your thoughts.
I'm looking forward to getting dome time in on it. Going out of town for 5 days so won't be until next week at the earliest. I envision them as training and Enigma guns for me. I don't really see it kicking the 11oz 332 Airlite Ti out of my pocket.
