    9mm hollow point questions?

    I've heard great reviews on the golden saber hollow points and talked to a leo who dropped a badguy off to the morgue with one. What other brands offer good mushrooming for HD?

    Any of these will work fine. Anything else people say is just personal opinion and preference.

    Federal Tactical 124 gr JHP (LE9T1)
    Speer Gold Dot 124 gr +P JHP

        Plenty. Some detectives have free reign on what they can carry. For some its all about personal preference. If you think about it shot placement is what really matters. You can have a larger caliber but make a crappy shot. At the sametime you could have a .22 but drop someone with 1 shot if the placement is good.

          Ok! Just asked a simple question, since most all CA Law Enforcement Agencies have moved to the .40S&W.

            My guns like Speer Gold Dot 124 gr +P JHP. Great and plenty of reviews on them online as well.

            Best thing to do is shoot a few different types through your gun and see what it and you prefer.

              The agency I work for is switching from .45 HK's to Department issued Glocks in 9mm, .40, and .45. However, if an officer doesn't want the department issued Glock they can purchase their own weapon off a list of approved weapons and calibers.

                  LASD still uses 9mm.
