Chickamauga Slim 387 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I have a co-worker looking for a few 38 shorts and a few 38 rimfire so he can help his grandfather shoot his heirloom guns one more time. If you have any to spare let me know. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpo 7,359 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 38 short Colt, or 38 Smith & Wesson? Both have frequently been called 38 short, and they do not interchange. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hoss 1,234 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I have 38 short Colt & 38 SW brass I can send you. You would have to reload it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fort Reno Kid 10 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Howdy Pard Just a thot for you to consider. Dixie Gun Works ( and possibly other outfits too) used to sell rimfire conversion cartridges. I bought some for an antique S&W 32 rimfire. Basically they’re solid brass machined down to rimfire cartridge sizes. They take a round ball, small charge of black powder, and use a 22 blank. Enables me to shoot the old pistol. If DGW still stocks them, would be a way to recall the heirloom piece to active duty. Adios Fort Reno Kid 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
