Handgun effectiveness
Description:Hello Mr 16 gauge, Beginning at age 16 or 17, some friends and I began experimenting with bullet penetration and bullet expansion, rifle, handgun and shotgun with slugs and buckshot. And I had continued the shade tree experimenting through about my mid 30's, at which stage I sort of "burned out" at it. Likewise, I have shot a few live game animals with various guns and ammunitions but not very many compared to some hunters. Upon becoming a Police Officer, age 22 eventually I also was able to do some experimenting with so called "ballistic gelatin", also Kevlar, garbage cans, automobile doors, wheels, tires, trunk lids, passenger seats, glass and engine blocks. Like yourself, I concluded that hollow point bullets are not reliable. Just don't count on it if you get into a gun battle with a mob of angry gelatin blocks, because I saw it fail to expand once in that weird stuff.
