38 special will it work

Absolutely my friend. Any revolver chambered for .357 can shoot the shorter cased .38 special. But as mentioned below, be sure to clean those chambers as carbon fouling will build up due to the shorter casing.

Hi Charles and welcome. Yes Sir, any .357 Magnum firearm can fire the shorter .38 Special ammunition no issue. Just clean/scrub the cylinder between cartridge changes when shooting .38 Special as there will be carbon build up in the cylinder due to the shorter case. This will make chambering .357 Mag cartridges difficult as build up gets worse. cheers and stay safe!

yes any 357 can use 38 special just keep a eye out for a carbon ring to build up and make 357 ammo harder to chamber this is avoided by good cleanings of the cylinder walls

Hi Charles, yes sir, you can shoot .38sp from a .357 revolver. Stay safe & have a great day!

This is an awesome gun! I love it, it might be my favorite plinking gun. I love the price too. After the shipping insurance it was less than $430. The quality of the gun is amazing and it took no time to ship.

I purchased 2 of the Pietta 1873 guns with ceracote finish. They look great! They also handle and shoot great. These are .357 pistols. I shoot a lot of .38 Special for Cowboy Action Shooting. Point and shoot. They function so smooth. I couldn't recommend a finer set of pistols from Bud's Gun Shop.
