when I say that I am using .38 special shells, I mean I will trim them to a short length , and put such little blackpowder in them that the shell itself could take the pressure. so If I were to shoot someone, they might get a bruise. its a gun for amusement really.

Since the gun is solely for amusement and the strength of it is questionable you could look into using these wax bullets in .38 caliber.

These are actually meant to be used with just a large pistol primer with no powder and will launch the wax bullets at around 600fps. You can either buy their pre-drilled shells or do it yourself, which allow you to just snap in the primers with no problem. The large pistol primers are actually about as loud as a .22 so even though recoil will be minimal and you are shooting wax bullets you still get the effect of shooting a gun.
