Hello, I cant seem to find if there are any proper moon clips for the victory revolver .38S&W?

Thanks

It shoots a rimmed cartridge, no need for moon clips. To use with moon clips, you would have to have a gunsmith ream the back of the cylinder especially for moon clips for rimmed cases. Really not necessary to shoot regular cartridges.

You might be confusing the Victory model with the Model of 1917 which was chambered in .45 Auto and required moon clips for proper headspacing of the cartridges.

No Victory models use moon clips unless they were modified after the came into civilian ownership, and to my knowledge, no only moon clips were ever made for the .38 S&W cartridge. There are moon clips made for .38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds, but they wouldn't work with .38 S&W without modification....
