If I only had a job.

Yeah, it'll go with the single bullet that I have for it.

I doubt anyone makes .38 ACP.


I wouldn't want to pay more than the $375 though, honestly, you can't shoot it and it's not museum quality.

It sounds like if you load your own .38 Super, you just don't put so much powder in it and it'll function flawlessly as a .38ACP.

The local pawn shop has one.

And there are companies that make .38 acp. Hell, some gun stores probably have it for old guns.

I thought the rim on the .38 ACP was smaller than the .38 Super.

Dang, now I really do want to get it.

But then I'd have to invest in reloading gear...

Can't top perfection.

At least not with the current layout of handgun ammunition.

True, but youd think something new would come up after so long.The only thing thats changed really is the caliber and grain, and maybe some extra feature here and there. I;m waiting for something pivotal

Like the Rail Pistol from BioMega XD I'm waiting for something like that to happen soon.

Yeah, I can't wait for energy weapons.
I wonder how long it would take a Trekkie fan to make a Phaser out of one of those.
