1. Yes. I obtained this information by emailing Smith & Wesson directly.
2. The model 15 is a K frame .38 special revolver. The 3 suffix means third change.
All K frame models from the first change onwards are rated for plus P ammunition.
As are N frame revolvers and L frame.
The plus P ammunition does reduce average service life as you might expect.
You can, but, you should not. The frame is not rated for +P

No. This was made long before +P ammo was created.
All production models of the Mod 36 and Mod 37 manufactured in 1998 or later are rated for +P ammunition. Prior to that date, no guarantees.
Yes it is. A steady diet of plus P ammunition decreases the service life however
In MOST cases, the Model 10 is a .38 Special caliber. The barrel should be marked to show this. .38 Special (sometimes written as its original name- .38 S&W Special) is a different cartridge than .38 S&W. Early Model 10s may not but suited for frequent use of +P rated ammunition- it is loaded to higher power levels. The traditional cartridge was a round nosed 158 grain lead bullet- but 125 grain jacketed hollowpoint is frequently used for defense, and 144 grain wadcutter is used for target shooting.

1. Consult your owner's manual. If you don't have one, go to the S&W website and request one. 2. Yes it is. The model 3914 is an aluminum frame 9 mm semiautomatic pistol. A steady diet of plus P ammunition does decrease the average service life before failure occurs however.
