What do the letters "ctg" stand for in the 38 special ctg ammo?

I am looking at a Colt Agent (Mfgr 1975) with caliber "38 special ctg" stamped on the barrel. Am looking for the definition of "ctg" (it must stand for something).

Cartridge.

And the Colt Agent has an aluminum frame. Do NOT shoot +p or +p+ loads in it. Ever.

Go ahead. Ask me how I know.
