A few weeks ago my friend told me his grandmother gave him a revolver his grandfather used to carry as a cop in a small town. I was instantly intrigued and had to see it. It was an S&W, small in size, and either stainless or nickel. The DA was amazingly smooth (I had never pulled the trigger on a DA revolver before) and the SA was naturally insanely light. My friend then said it was an odd caliber: .38 S&W. Now my friend is not a gun guy by any means, so I thought he was mistaken. However, the barrel said .38 S&W. I had never heard of this round before and was perplexed.
Fast forward to a few days ago, on aimsurplus I saw .38 S&W ammo for sale. It got my curiosity going again.
How common was this round and how did it stack up to its competition?
I'm sure you guys have far more entertaining stories and information than a wikipedia article.
