Frequently Asked Questions
Buy .38 Super +P Ammo for Sale

Is 38 Super the same as 38 Special +p?

No. .38 Super and .38 Special +P are different cartridges. .38 Super is a semi-auto pistol round with higher velocity and pressure, designed for 1911-style guns. .38 Special +P is a revolver cartridge with increased pressure over standard .38 Special. They are not interchangeable.

Is 38 plus p more powerful than 9mm?

No. 9mm typically generates higher velocity and energy than .38 Special +P. Standard 9mm rounds produce roughly 350–400 ft-lbs of muzzle energy compared to about 250–300 ft-lbs for .38 Special +P. Some premium loads narrow the gap, but 9mm generally outperforms it.

Why do Mexicans like 38 Super?

Mexican law prohibits civilians from owning military-caliber firearms like 9mm and .45 ACP. Historically, .38 Super was not classified as a military cartridge, making it a popular legal option offering comparable power. However, its civilian legal status in Mexico has become more nuanced and may have changed over time.
