You might want to try firing a 640, the all-steel daddy of the current Centennial family. Not too heavy, but more heft gives more control and less punishment from recoil.

I second the suggestion of Pachmayr Compac grips. I first encountered them on a Colt DSII, and they felt great. When I bought my 640 (.38 Special +P-rated) I put them on it and I like them a lot.
