Is it safe to fire 38 special rounds in it as the fit perfect and the chamber closes? There is an odd ball number stamped in the side visible after opening the chamber, which I figure could be the police issue number. The barrel is marked Smith and Wesson, but nothing else has any stamp, other than made in USA. ![]() It does not have the stamp in the cover on the side, but the cover on the side matches a 38 S&W, along with the strap ring on the bottom of the grip, which is wood, but has no round inlay at the top. I looked it up on line, comparing both 38 S&W and 38 Special, it has characteristics of both, but not an exact match to any I found. I dropped a 38 special round in it and it fits perfect. All the serial numbers match, including the chamber. ![]() The previous owner said he never shot anything but. ![]() However, after buying 2 boxes of shells for it, I looked at the barrel and it is stamped 38 S&W CTG, no special or spcl, nothing in-between. Can some one help me out as I am confused as to what I have.
