Thing is you can shoot .38 specials out of a 357 snub nose revolver all day long no problem and fun to shoot. And if you are ever in a desperate situation where the only ammo available is 357 then you are still good to go. That’s why my snubby is 357 but I pretty much shoot 38+p out of it.
That’s the impression I got after watching the video.
Besides, 38 specials were the LEO’s go-to sidearm for most of the 20th century. Until hi-magazine weapons and Kevlar came along they were fine.
