Have subscribed, unsubscribed, and re-subscribed over the years, but just wanted to say that the decision to re-sub and stay was because of observing the marked increase in maturity and production value in your channel. Your content has gotten much better as you go on and is excellent. Looking forward to more videos. Keep up the great work!
I honestly don't understand the apprehension behind this round, how could someone think after watching this video that it's not a good round for self defense. Even when the round failed to expand, its more then lethal if that landed in your chest, and if the perp did not die or stop, shoot them again…
my father n-law years ago shot 1 of the local knife wielding meth heads here n Tulsa n the leg wth his trusted Walther ppk using sum old Winchester 95 grain fmjs & his ass didn't go anywhere but 2 the hospital & then straight 2 the pokey !
Lmao better take 50ae in case someone is wearing 50 t-shirts
"It will keal"
Enough to not ignore until you can get to your primary in the "gym bag".
Is Hornady Critical Defense better?
There are times I HAVE to carry a .380 or nothing at all I pick to carry
I don't think people are going to be wearing 8 layers 😂😂😂

He should shoot a 700 grain bullet of a 500 Magnum

Awesome vid! I have a new found respect for the little ruger lcp that I keep around as a bug.
Can you test the .38 special like you did the .380?

I have been carrying extreme penetrators in mine.maybe you could test them in 380?Thanks
HST's just work. More a testament to the round then the caliber. No other 380 performs like that. Also why all my carry guns are HST lol.
