  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I have a Colt Agent (a snub-nosed, alloy-frame .38 with a Parkerized finish, a variation of the Colt Cobra). I understand that you should not use +P ammo in it because of the alloy construction. However, some folks have told me that Remington Silvertip +P's actually aren't truly +P's and should be safe to use in it. Any experience or thoughts?

Also, I assume it would be OK to use that kind of ammo in a S&W Model 36 Chief's Special because of its steel construction, right? TIA.
