One is the 442, which is the blued version and the other is the 642, which is the stainless. Both are hammerless. The only problem I've ever had in either of these guns was actually more ammo related. I had bought some cheap practice ammo and had several FTF's. The firing pin left an indention on the primer, but they failed to fire. Upon closer inspection, it was determined that the primer was actually recessed a little so the firing pin wasn't making maximum impact. Once I changed ammo, I haven't had any problems. I can't remember what I paid for each, but fairly certain they were each less than $500.
interesting. How light?
