1000 Rounds of 125gr FMJ .38 Spl Ammo by Armscor

The .38 Special is a rimmed, centerfire cartridge that first came out in 1898. It’s quite possibly the most popular revolver round in the world, but there are also a few semi-auto’s and carbines chambered in it. For a period of 70 years, between 1920 and 1990, it was the standard issue weapon for the majority of police departments in the U.S., and there are many law enforcement officers who continue to favor the .38 as a backup or off-duty gun. Performance-wise it’s a low-pressure cartridge with a standard load of 17,000 psi, while +P loads are usually at about 20,000 psi; it got its start as a black powder load, which affects its pressure capacities to this day. The .38 Special is a favorite for many firearms aficionados, and if you have one, you need some ammo.
