Maybe.

You need to figure out which .38 your Colt is chambered in. .38 Short Colt and .38 Long Colt guns will not chamber a .38 Special. .38 Colt Special is the same as regular .38 Special.

If you cannot tell which caliber it is you need to take it to a gunsmith and have him tell you.

No. The cartridge is far too large to fit in the gun, and .38 Special is a centerfire, not a rimfire.


Why won't my 38 catridges fit into my 38 revolver?

Probably because they are the WRONG cartridge for your revolver. The most common mix up is between .38 S&W, and .38 Special. the .38 S&W is shorter and fatter, and does NOT interchange with the .38 Special. There are at least 6 different .38 pistol cartridges- such as .38 Short Colt, .38 Super, 38 New Police, etc


Can a 45 colt revolver fire a 44 magnum bullet?

No. If it will even fit (the rim of a 44 magnum cartridge is much larger than a 45 Colt) it would be very dangerous to do. 45 Colt firearms were not designed for the forces of a 44 Magnum cartridge.
