Default Can I use 38 Colt short black powder Cartridges in a 38 S&W Topbreak Revolver?
Hello,

I have a 38 S&W Iver Johnson Top Break Revolver. Now I have the chance to get a box of .38 Colt Short Cartridges in black powder.

It's possible to use this in my IJ?? Thank you in advance.

Best regards
Dirk
