There is no such thing as a ".38 Special +P" firearm - it's still a .38 Special, with some indication from the manufacturer that it is capable of handling the higher chamber pressures of the more heavily loaded +P cartridges. That's the only difference between a regular and a +P cartridge - more powder.

Can you shoot 38 special ammunition in my 1892 Winchester?
.38 spl will shoot without problems from an 1892 Winchester that is chambered for .357 The .38 spl develops less pressure than the .357, and it the same diameter of bullet and casing You may have a problem however with the .38 spl cartridges feeding properly from the magazine into the chamber. That is because the .38 specials are shorter than the .357 cartridges that the rifle was designed for.
