[QUOTE="1911user, post: 802909, member: 543"] I consider the 38+P and standard pressure 9mm to be roughly the same in terms of practical effects. One thing to remember when comparing barrel lengths is semi-autos include the length of the chamber and revolvers do not include the cylinder length. So a snubby 38 would have a comparable barrel length of about 3.5 inches if the cylinder (chamber) was included. It's not a perfect comparison due to the gap (pressure loss) between the cylinder and barrel. [/QUOTE]
