If the barrel is thick enough and it's a small caliber change to a larger size, it can be done. But it requires specialized barrel milling machinery, and the quality will never be as good as the original caliber it was designed for. Also; you would need to install a different chamber that would handle the larger round, as well as a new magazine. All in all, you're better off just to buy a new gun in the caliber you want.

Is a 380caliber pistol bigger than a38 caliber pistol?
One can make a pistol much larger than it needs to be, maybe even having an extra-long barrel would make a pistol larger, technically. I'll assume you mean the barrel diameter. Although it would seem that a .380 and .38 would have the same barrel diameter, namely, 38/100th of an inch, that is not usually very accurate. The .380 ACP has an actual barrel diameter of about .35 caliber, or 35/100th of an inch. The .38 Special has a barrel diameter of .357 caliber, or 35.7/100th of an inch. So the .38 Special has an ever so slightly larger diameter.
