Stipulated facts
1. My girl and I both regularly carry and are active shooters
2. While we do both CCW we both JUST turned 21 this summer and got our CHL's so we both admit CCW'ing is not our expertise yet
We are in the car today and I told her I bought a box of Federal Hydra Shocks 135grain for my M&P. She asked "What did you have in their before" I reply, that I was being cheap and just keeping hand inspected WWB in the gun since its what I had in the house.
She immediately was rather upset with me, she said that due to the risk of over penetration carrying FMJ rounds for SD was irresponsible. I agree that the better personal protection rounds are better for CCW but my preference is more based on higher levels of reliability and higher standards in the ammo manufacturing process.
So I ask for THR's input.
Is it irresponsible to not use highly frangible ammo in a SD gun.
