Is 9mm ammo interchangeable with 38 cal?
No, they are two different cartridges. 9mm is a semi-automatic cartridge and .38 caliber is a revolver cartridge. As a general rule, no ammo is "interchangeable" with other ammo. Some guns will fire more than one specific cartridge, such a the .357 magum, but each type of ammo is different than each other type.
