.380 or 32
There are several DIFFERENT .32 caliber cartridges. The .32 bullet is smaller in diameter than a .380. SOME .32 cartridges are longer, and have more power, such as the .327 magnum. And some .32 pistols are smaller than some .380 pistols, and vice versa. The caliber has nothing to do with the size of the gun.
Can I shoot 380acp caliber out of my 32 pistol?
32 caliber is a little smaller then the 38 caliber

.40 S&W cartridge, bullet diameter = .401" .380 ACP cartridge, bullet diameter = .355-.356" .32 ACP cartridge, bullet diameter = .311 - .312"
Absolutely not!
The .22 caliber bullet is ABOUT .22 inches wide. A .32 bullet is about .32 inches wide. The bullet will also be heavier due to size.
No. Shoot only the caliber printed on the barrel.
definitely not. .32 ammunition is .32 caliber though the actual diameter of the bullet is usually between .315 and .319 inches. .380 ammunition is .355 inches in diameter (9mm) and would not fit down the barrel of a .32 caliber gun.
It was chambered in both 32 ACP and 380 ACP.
