    Two .38 Specials inherited, help identify?

    Well, my interpretation of your comment is that since neither simply shows “.38 S&W” But actually “38 S&W SPECIAL CTG.” and “38 S&W SPL.” I am thinking that as NavyVet24 alluded to them as “common 38 Special” rounds are actually ok to use. That’s a big relief! Because that’s what my Dad had...

    Two .38 Specials inherited, help identify?

    Hi all, hopefully someone can help me figure out what I’ve got here… I’ve inherited two Smith & Wesson revolvers in .38 Special that I didn't know my father even had previously.
