I hope I'm directing this to the correct thread. If not, I apologize.
There are three S&W revolvers that I own, that I question whether it is safe to fire .38 Special +P:
1. Military & Police (pre-Model 10) 5" , sq. butt, Serial # S849XXX, made in 1945 or 1946 (long action, transitional gun).
2. Chief's Special (Model 36) 2" , rd. butt, Serial #244XXX, made 1957-1962 (probably 1960).
3. Chief's Special (Model 36) 3", sq. butt, Serial#738XXX, made 1967-1968.
If +P is fired in these 3 , what are the consequences ?
Thank you for a reply, at your convenience .
