About the Cartridge

In 1974, SAAMI established standards for a .38 Special cartridge with a gunpowder load that generated a higher firing pressure than the standard cartridge. Designated with a +P suffix, this cartridge has a significant, but not huge, increase in performance over the standard .38 Special cartridge.

I put 300 rounds through this and it functions great. Easy to conceal and with XTP ammo its a good self defense gun. Recoil is manageable but as in any J-frame is going to be more than a larger gun.
