I'm late to the game on this thread, but I own the 642, LCR, & a Kel Tec P3AT (& have shot a friends LCP alongside my P3AT to compare the two, and I found them almost identical to shoot).
I shoot the P3AT better than either snubbie. These .380acp semi autos have a pre-cocked, long trigger pull of around 5 to 6 pounds, while the snubbies DAO trigger pull is in the 10 pound range. The lighter trigger pull allows better practical accuracy due to better trigger control IMHO. I know the revolvers themselves are accurate; mastering the DAO revolver trigger is not an easy thing.
I too am still practicing to improve my accuracy with my snub nose revolvers, but am accurate enough for self defense/combat distanced.
