G2R R.I.P. ammo

[TheTman]

A new type of bullet from G2R, the Radically Invasive Projectile. Looks nasty. So far I think it's only available in .380 and 9mm. with others on the way. Any thoughts?

I have heard about it but no track record and high prices.

[TheTman]

It looks like something that will make the gun grabbers soil their britches. One place has it on sale for $44.00 for box of 20, regular price $59.00. I don't think I will be buying any at those prices.

A lump of lead works for me.

looks great but seems like a marketing gimick

main thing you rely on for self defense is penetration which the the core of this round that doesnt break off likely lacks, and if it makes it deep enough, its bringing less with it

sure it looks cool popping a water balloon and a water melon, but ill stick to more reliable ammunition.

Especially in a Kahr. Most can't handle flat nose, much less spikes.

I'll pass. I'm more confident with Federal HST for my self defense solution. And I have a bunch of it for good reason. :)

Marketing malarkey. On a lot of other sites it has been debunked as junk.

I have a friend who's second cousin knows a guy that has a step brother that really likes them.

But, since everyone is worried about shooting someone with "deadly ammo" such as reloads that were loaded "heavy" to kill, could you imagine going before a judge after shooting someone in self defense with this stuff? You'd be hung at sunrise.

I never went anywhere. Been fighting cancer. The sailor on the left is my kissing cousin.

lmao! I once dated a girl whose dog bit a mailman whose ex-wife met a check-out cashier at the grocery who claims to have actually shot one. Didn't like it. :rolleyes:
