I have a little experience with that, since we once had a case come through in which an FMJ bullet came through with "skid marks" characteristic of being shot from a revolver.
A Colt Cobra revolver would extract the semi-rimmed empties. Velocity of the Winchester 71-grain FMJ .32 ACP was less than 600 fps from the 2" barrel, vs. 878 fps when fired from a Colt M1903 pocket hammerless in the lab collection. Accuracy was poor, in the order of 3" groups at 50 feet, approximately double that of ordinary 98-grain LRN Winchester factory loads for the .32 S&W Long fired at the same time.
The evidence revolver occasionally misfired with .32 ACPs because the thinner 0.045 rim thickness vs. 0.055 for the .32 S&W Long and Colt New Police created a condition of excessive headspace when .32 ACP ammunition was used. The steel firing pin bushing staked into the light aluminum alloy frame had also been peened loose and set back about 0.01" from apparent, repeated setback of the .32 ACP cartridges against the recoil shield of the Colt Cobra revolver.
So while it might "work" as an emergency expedient, performance is inferior to using the ammunition for which the revolver is intended.
