Please also note that the top strap on the lightweight scandium frame mags (340s, 360) is thicker than that of the .38 Spl aluminum frame guns. So much so, that the .357 gun will fit only with difficulty in a IWB suede pouch holster (IME) while the .38 gun fits no problem.

Also note that the .357 Scandium guns are fitted with a (proper term?) blast shield to protect the top strap at the barrel/cylinder gap from erosion by magnum rounds. The .38s do not have this device.
