@TheCrowbar: I respect your interpretation, but i don't think most people would agree with you on it.I think most people would read that panel and think the same thing I did, I don't see this commentary anywhere else but with you on this forum. If the language was a bit more specific, I could see your point. To use numbers, when letters are used in the common vernacular in reference to size, it doesn't make sense. Again, they needed back up, they were in a firefight, the question and the context is too close a weapon need than anything else. I've never even heard of a breast joke with numbers for example.
Jason specifically says "Rescue might be overselling it," They needed firepower, Starfire brought it.
These are 38's firing if anyone was curious:
