I was at the gun shop the other day and was
talking to the guy behind the counter. I asked him
what he was carrying and he pulled out his 1911 loaded
with FMJ's.
I have always thought that it was a bad idea to
use those for self defense as they can overpenetrate.
It got me thinking though, maybe it's a good idea to
have atleast one full mag of FMJ's on standby in case
I need something that will penetrate. Perhaps the bad
guy is hiding behind a car or something.
Anyone else keeping some FMJ's on hand just in case?
