Hi Randy and welcome. You can shoot .38 +P but, in this short a barrel you will not see a big improvement in velocity. +P loads need at least 4 inches of barrel to burn all the powder. You will not get the stated box velocity difference between standard and +P ammunition. You are only going to get higher recoil and muzzle blast and degraded time in follow up shot speed. Cheers and stay safe!

Short barrel , lightweight gun not a good combination for +p , Unless You plan on shooting the person behind the person

Hi Randy, this is Rated for Continuous +P Use. However, +P ammo requires a four-inch minimum barrel to burn the extra powder. Therefore, in a two-inch barrel the extra powder is burned after the bullet leaves the barrel creating more recoil and making it harder to come back to target. Stay safe & have a great day!
