Good points
Preacherman,
You bring up an excellent point that too many seem to miss.
I have a lot of the civilians I teach and others civilians ask what I recommend/carry and often mention the FBI test protocols and how their ammo will perform with said tests. I have spent countless sessions explaining to them that the requirements for LE are vastly different from those of a civilian. While some may envision a civilian in a position to shoot through wallboard, wooden doors, car bodies and auto glass, I think this is an exaggeration. As you pointed out, performance should be based on factors like expected clothing, over penetration in a home/apartment, etc.
