Hello Mabagani,

Can you cite some references for your opinion that its a myth?

Give me a little time - I'll try to look for my sources.

Okay, here is a quote from the mag about the contracted use of the.38 by the US navy and army "...much to the annoyance of the American soldiers. This continued as late as 1909, when Brigadier General John J. Pershing was serving his second Philippine tour. On December 24, 1909, he wrote to a friend of an incident wherein an Army captain was attacked by a blade-wielding Moro. The officer fired all six rounds from his .38 caliber revolver into the Moro, who pressed the attack and cut the captain to pieces. The assailant was finally dispatched by a guard with a .45 caliber bullet."
