About this mod
Replaces the image on the .38 ammunition box from munitions with a Colt .38 or .380 auto 1903 pocket pistol to imply .38 ACP or .380 ACP instead of .38 Special.

The .38 round in Fallout 4 is subject to ambiguity common in Bethesda games where it's not clear what kind of .38 Caliber round it actually is. The image on the box suggests it is a revolver round like .38 special, however the model of the bullet and casing in game suggests a rimless or semi-rimmed pistol round like .38 ACP. This is further supported by the fact that the only revolver which can be chambered in this round in game is the pipe revolver, which uses .45 Auto rounds with a moon clip by default, and every other weapon chambered in it is semiauto or bolt action. This mod uses the template from Munitions to replace the revolver with either a .38 ACP Colt 1903 Pocket Hammer, or a .380 ACP Colt 1908 Pocket Hammerless, to suggest that it is one of those instead of .38 special. .380 ACP does make a bit more sense in some situations like the pipe gun or modded generic deliverers like the compact pistol, which would probably make more sense in a weak blowback caliber, but of course .38 ACP more closely matches the in game name so I have included textures for both.
The textures ended up rendering a bit more saturated and less faded than the original munitions textures, presumably because I used Krita as I do not own photoshop.
