The guy in norway used bumbum bullets(i heard on the radio) whats a dumdum and whats the difference between them and a hollow point? they look just like a hollowpoint to me........
Its a rather archaic term for any type of bullet that is designed to expand on impact (generally HP or SP bullets). I guess the radio reporter thought it sounded scarier and/or more evil than hollow-point.The guy in norway used bumbum bullets(i heard on the radio) whats a dumdum and whats the difference between them and a hollow point? they look just like a hollowpoint to me........
The news report I heard this morning said he was using bullets that exploded on contact.....chris3
Police use hollow points because they have no "front" or "rear" and are doing their job in a crowd and cannot have penetration of the target.
One of the most oft-repeated BS statements ever....plus it takes 3 people out of the fight to care for a wounded man.
