No sir.... you need .38 special ammunition for that handgun. Here is a link: https://www.budsgunshop.com/search.php/type/Ammunition/caliber/10000566
Michael, no, the .380ACP round is actually a tad smaller in diameter than the .38sp. That's one reason the .38 rounds don't fit into the clip. They're designed for entirely different applications, too. The .380ACP for semi-autos (it's rimless) and .38 for revolvers (rimmed). Unless it's a real emergency, I wouldn't even try it. You want .38sp. >>> budsgunshop.com/search.php/type/Ammunition/caliber/10000566-38+Special
No, 380 acp is very different from 38 special. 380acp is meant for semi automatics and won't work in a 38 special revolver. Buds doesn't have much in stock for 38 special and it's pricey defense ammo. I get most of my ammo from a online shop called freedom munitions, they have 50 rounds of 38sp for$30 right now. Hope this helps.
Michael, unfortunately no Sir as they are a rimmed (38 Special) and rimless (380acp) cartridge as pictured here : https://www.targetbarn.com/broad-side/380-vs-38-special/ -------------- Plenty of 38 Special ammunition here : https://ammoseek.com/ammo/38-special
no 380 will not work it is a rimless case made for a semi auto and the 38 special has a rim that holds it in the chamber
