I have a friend, let's call him 321yerfj, who wanted to find out if a .38 Special could fire a .357 Magnum, but he's not sure if it's a stupid question or not.
lol. Ok, so I'm curious if it's possible. In my head, unless the .357 Magnum cylinder is longer than the .38 Special, it should work right? Is the barrel different too? Would one need to swap the arm too?
Just curious what it would take... My 'friend' might be regretting buying the cheaper Model 637 and not saving up to buy the Model 340 and thinks the super-duper titanium cylinder might make the difference.
