you can shoot standard 38 special rounds out of a firearm marked for 38 special +p
You can, but, you should not. The frame is not rated for +P
A ".38 +P revolver" is simply a .38 Special revolver which is rated to fire +P loads. It's still a .38 Special, and the +P doesn't change the dimensions of the round itself.
It's a .38 Special revolver. +P applies to the cartridge, and indicates a more powerful load than a standard round of the calibre. In this case, it would be a .38 S&W Special with a +P loading, hence .38 Special +P. You can fire regular .38 S&W Special cartridges through it. Whether or not it can fire +P or +P+ ammo, you need to read the instruction manual and find the manufacturer's information on this.
it does shoot the 38 spl cartridge.............
.357 Magnum and .38 Special (to include +P and +P+ loadings).
38 Special. Stay away from +P
NO
Depends on how old the revolver is.
Not recommended unless the maker says it is OK to do.
yes, but not too often in a light weight 38 revolver.
A .38 Special can shoot the cartridge marked "38 Short Colt". It CANNOT shoot what many people CALL a .38 Short- which is the .38 S&W. The .38 S&W in not only shorter than the Special, it is fatter. The 2 do not interchange.
