If I could find them, two 100+ year-old revolvers, chambered in .25 and .38. One's cylinder is broken- it doesn't catch and just spins- and the other needs to be cleaned. Also, my dad won't let me fire the .38 with any modern ammo, because it'll supposedly kB.

You could try reloading and make your own underpowdered wadcutters.
:/

Hell, wadcutters are subsonic and probably safe to shoot in it.

I've told him this. He still won't let me fire it if we find it. It's an antique, anyways, so I might not fire it even if I find it. My great-grandpa supposedly got them when he took them from a drunkard in a bar.

Come to think of it, my mom has her father's old revolver in .32 rimfire. That thing's gotta be old, they haven't made .32RF in forever.
