    I am trying to decide between a Colt 1903 and a 1908. Other than the caliber difference, are there and frame or grip size changes between the two? As a reloader, 32 caliber will not be an issue after I fire quite a few factory rounds. I know the 1908 is a 380 and the 1903 is a 32. This is why I am questioning the frame and grip size changes between the two. Which would you choose? Thanks.

    They're the same thing, best I know, in different caliber. The "1908" was never an official designation, it was just the year they started making it in .380, and people called them that.

    Seems like reloading 380 would be easier than 32 just because it's a bit bigger. I'd go with the larger caliber.
