Is a 9mm the same as 38spec?
Yes and no, depending on what you are asking. A 9mm projectile is about 0.355" diameter whereas a .38 Special is 0.357" diameter - pretty much the same. A 9mm case is rimless and is shorter than a .38 Spec and almost all of the guns chambered for the 9mm are automatics. The .38 is a rimmed case and almost all of the handguns chambered for it are revolvers. Ballistically, the two rounds are very similar with the 9mm having a slight edge, given similar projectiles. Since it is a revolver bullet, the .38 offers flexibility for the projectiles (including wadcutters and birdshot) which the 9mm won't support.
