.38 ACP and .380 ACP are two different cartridges.

Colt 1903 was in .32 acp and Colt 1908 was in .380 acp. This model never came in .38 acp.

OP must be having 1908 in .380 acp and not 1903 in .38 acp as he has mentioned in his post.

This is actually compact version of Colt model 1900. These pistols are rare in India and if OP is having this pistol than ammo is extremely hard to find.

>38 ACP is predecessor to ,38 Super. Any of these won't chamber in .380ACP.
