The P38 was manufactured during wartime, when simpler, less expensive ways of manufacturing things were sought out. Chrome lining - especially on a pistol barrel - would've been highly unlikely on a P38. If you have such a pistol, what you probably have is a postwar P1 pistol (aluminum slide, rather than steel), or else a P38 with a postwar P1 barrel swapped in.

Is a 380caliber pistol bigger than a38 caliber pistol?

One can make a pistol much larger than it needs to be, maybe even having an extra-long barrel would make a pistol larger, technically. I'll assume you mean the barrel diameter. Although it would seem that a .380 and .38 would have the same barrel diameter, namely, 38/100th of an inch, that is not usually very accurate. The .380 ACP has an actual barrel diameter of about .35 caliber, or 35/100th of an inch. The .38 Special has a barrel diameter of .357 caliber, or 35.7/100th of an inch. So the .38 Special has an ever so slightly larger diameter.

Did Iver Johnson ever manufacture a 30 cal carbine pistol?

The Super Enforcer Model 3000 manufactured only in 1985 and 1986 is a pistol version of the US Carbine, 30 caliber, with an 11 inch barrel. It was re-introduced as the Enforcer with a 10 1/2 inch barrel in 1988 and discontinued in 1993. A great source of information on Iver Johnson firearms is the book by W.E. Goforth titled, "Iver-Johnson Arms & Cycle Works Firearms 1871-1993".
