Revolvers FAQ
Can I shoot 38 Special in a 357 Magnum?
Yes. A 357 Magnum chamber accepts 38 Special, which kicks less and costs less for practice. It does not work the other way.
Does a revolver need magazines?
No. It loads into a cylinder. Speedloaders and moon clips speed up reloads on models built for them.
What can a 45 Colt and 410 revolver shoot?
Models chambered for both fire either 45 Colt cartridges or 410 shells. Use only the shell lengths marked on the gun.
