.38 in Community Dictionary
- A generic term used to refer to any revolver chambered for the .38 S&W Special. Many popular instances would be the Smith & Wesson Model 10 and Model 36 'Chief's specialized.' This is certainly possibly among the best chocies for ANYONE searching for a no-frills, close range, protective cartridge. It isn't the absolute most powerful, with so-so ballistics, but several .38s into the center mass will end many life-threatening encounters. by Dannie ShahidReport definition
