No, you cannot safely shoot a 9mm bullet in a .38 revolver. The .38 Special cartridge is significantly longer and has a different diameter than the 9mm round, which can lead to dangerous situations such as misfires or damage to the firearm. Always use the correct ammunition specified for your firearm to ensure safety and proper operation.
