If you’re not satisfied with the performance of defensive JHP ammo, whether in .380 ACP, 9mm, or .45 ACP, you’ve got to the right place because G9 Defense designs and manufactures one of the most effective defensive ammunition for handguns and rifles. G9 thinks big and doesn’t get distracted by conventional ammo because there is an array of companies that nailed this market segment. Instead, it focuses on developing bullets of unique shapes that make ammo incredibly effective in terms of internal, external, and terminal ballistics.
What Makes G9 Ammo Special
Generally speaking, the patented External Hollow Point bullet, the company’s bread and butter, is a variation of a fluted bullet. It’s made from solid copper with sides scalloped to resemble a twist drill pattern. Unlike regular hollow points engineered to mushroom on impact and, thus, inflict more tissue damage, EHPs use their shape to act like a twist drill bit dipped into a soft environment. A spinning projectile grabs tissue and throws it out at high speed, producing a wound cavity that enlarges due to fluid dynamics. As a result, we get a hole much bigger than produced by regular HPs.
The tip of G9 bullets has a unique barrier-blind shape, which makes them capable of penetrating windshields, vehicle sheet metal, and drywalls without deformation. If you now think about how to avoid overpenetration with such bullets, we hasten to set your mind to ease - G9 rounds slow quickly and penetrate at just the right depth.
Due to lighter projectiles that produce reduced recoil, the follow-up shots are faster, and pistols with fully loaded magazines are easier to carry. For example, the typical loads for the 9mm caliber are within 115-147 grains, while the G9 9mm ammo has 80gr bullets. Regular .45 ACP bullets weigh 185-230 grains, while the G9 .45 ACP bullets weigh only 117gr.
