No doubt most of us have seen the footage on the hellivission of the lawyer getting lit up at close range. He took 5 .38 bullets to the neck, arm and torso and lived to return to work mere days later.
story and video
I have been toying with the idea of buying a toy gun in the guise of a 380 Mustang. I pack a .45 when I carry and was thinking of a Mustang for easier concealment during summer or when the occasoin demanded.
My question is this: What are your thoughts on expansion/power dump vs penetration with a small calliber? Hollow points may not penetrate well and ball ammo won't do as much damage (necessarilly), but it will travel further.
As I watched the video of the guy getting shot as he tried to hide behind a small tree I couldn't help but say "good thing it wasnt a .45".
