DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They should not interchange in any way. But, if they do, DO NOT ATTMEPT TO FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ONLY USE AMMUNITION THE WEAPON WAS DESIGNED TO FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are numerous handguns that will fire more than one caliber or type of ammo. The Taurus Judge will fire .410 shotgun ammo or .45 Colt ammo. Smith and Wesson has just started producing a gun similar revolver called the Governer that will fire .410, .45 Colt, or .45 ACP. You can fire .38 special in any gun that is chambered in .357 magnum (but not vice-versa) or .44 special in a gun chambered for .44 magnum (but not vice-versa). Also there are other types. There is a very rare revolver called the Medusa that will fire anything in the .38 or 9mm family, including 9mm Kurz (380), 9x19mm, 38 special, and .357 magnum.
Bullet diameter of a 9mm is .355; for a 38 it is .357. 38 case is longer. Additionally, a 9mm is designed to be used in a semi-automatic pistol, and a .38 is designed to be used in a revolver, although, there are a couple of revolvers that will chamber 9mm.
no, although the diameter of the bullet is about the same .356 for 9mm and 357/358 for the 38 cal. that metal cases will not interchange with other guns. i.e., the 9mm case does not feed in a 38 nor will a 38 feed in a 9mm..................
9mm 100-300 or so 38 Super 100-500 or so
.38 Special- 9mm is more powerful. ,357 Magnum- 9mm is less powerful.
9mm IS the caliber. If you mean what is it equivalent to, it is approximately the same as a .38.
No
9mm 100-300 or so 38 Super 100-500 or so
Yes- should fit any barrel from .22 to .50 caliber.
Noooop. But most .357 Magnums can safely fire a .38 Special (not vice versa though)
There are SEVERAL 9mm cartridges- the most common is probably the 9mm Parabellum (9mm Luger). A 9mm Parabellum BULLET (not cartridge) is typically slightly smaller than a .38 Special bullet- .356 instead of .357. The 9mm is frequently (not always) lighter- and shorter. Other 9mm cartridges (such as the 9mm Makarov) will have different bullets.
No, it cannot.
