Best 9mm Ammo for Self defence?

After the smoke clears and the show is over. Who can tell if the pistol was or wasn't loaded, and who can tell if it was or wasn't locked in the safe prior to the events unfolding??

Center of mass first. Ya gotta make contact with that first shot. Ya gotta. The killer is in your house, he's gonna kill you dead for all time ... the adrenaline is pumping on emergency overload ... that first shot has to slow him down or it's the big sleep, for you and your family. The cops can't help, no-one can. It's dark, bad light, fast movement ... go for center of mass.

As they say, "It's best when there is only one version of the events".

That would wear out your pistol mighty fast, methinks. And by mighty fast I mean somewhat faster than normal.

How many folks actually shoot enough to wear out a pistol?? I have several with over 30k thru them with no ill effect, both revolvers and autos. They are meant to be shot and aren't going to self-destruct after 100 rds. There is also the expense of buying enough of this type of ammo at about a buck a round to wear out a gun. I kinda think that an inappropriate amount of attention is directed toward wearing a gun out early, especially service autos. An alloy J-frame i can understand.

I have shot one pistol to death, but that was doing workup for competition and it was an already worn service Browning that I ran 32000 rounds thru in about 13 weeks so that doesn't really count...

The shotgun is the better choice.

Well Dr. Ignatius believes that safe action pistols are best.

A G26 with some very fast 135's would be an amazingly safe combo. It can destroy vests and blow limbs off.

Well above all else you have to look at your city's demographic.

Somalians, Chinese, Filipinos, and skinny whites blacks etc would go down better with fast 115 grain hp's such as Silvertips/Frangible.
Get fast 115's for this demographic, as fast as you can.
Limited fat to deal with...some of these guys are so skinny that you can deal with them like Varmints. So I'd match this demographic to places such as Vancouver.

Big boys like the average man in Chicago (6'3), you may need 147 hp such as SXT's. Some of these guys are very big and or fat so you'll want a slower round with more penetration. So maybe if you live in rural Alberta, this would be a nice choice for you.

If you have a random demographic just use 124's-130's.

All depends where you live and where you go usually.
Right now I carry 147 grain SXT's because its all i can get that's premium.

If armour piercing is your thing you can drill out the centers of fast JHPs/Frangible that come apart on impact and insert tungsten dowels/ screws found on the internet. These will readily defeat low end vests. You need special permits to do that though.

Are you a bully victim or something?
