So help a guy out and please describe what it is about the .38 Super that you like?
Before the 357 Magnum was introduced in the mid 1930's, the 38 Super was "king of the hill".
My first experience with the 38 Super was at a Second Chance Bowling Pin shoot in the early-1980's. A couple of the competitors were experimenting with a 38 Super because it had two more rounds in the magazine than a 45 ACP. I got curious. I bought my first 38 Super in the mid-1980's.
I like M1911's and the 38 Super is easier to shoot well than the 45 ACP. When reloaded, it has lots of capability.
See my post #18 above for additional information on my 38 Super adventures.
