Curious what others think about the idea of using some of the new sintered frangible ammo in home defense situations?
I’m for anything that will stop a bad guy and not travel beyond the wall behind him when I miss.

Bwahahahah!!! When you do find that ammo let me know! I need some, too!
Why? Does he even know what frangible ammo is?To make a long story short my cousin is a defense attorney and an avid shooter and he suggested I stay from this ammo.
…..Albeit I do remember we were talking about defensive carry rds.Why? Does he even know what frangible ammo is?
Next time I talk with him I'll ask and post back.
Thanks.…..Albeit I do remember we were talking about defensive carry rds.
With frangible ammo that would be a really, really, really, really, really hard idea to support. Of course neither the prosecutor or defense attorney needs to actually support their assertions and so reality and honesty are not really involved. It is a matter of how well they sell the idea.I believe that a prosecutor may argue the idea of intent to do more damage to the intruder than necessary, as in having a trigger job done on a handgun.
The key word is training, safety of those doing the shooting in a "fun house" is the issue, not over penetration beyond the training facility, or in the case of reactive targets, to not destroy the targets to save training costs.Thanks.
Since the sintered frangible rounds were developed to increase safety in Close Quarters Interior training with live rounds ......
Thank you for the education my friend.The key word is training, safety of those doing the shooting in a "fun house" is the issue, not over penetration beyond the training facility, or in the case of reactive targets, to not destroy the targets to save training costs.
Remind me to tell you about the time I pepper sprayed myself.No lie...I heard it from a guy who heard it from a guy, that some poorly informed "operators" thought that the frangible ammo was for force on force training, so they shot each other with the stuff....they said it really, really hurt!

Correct. It is designed to break apart if it strikes a very hard object, also to avoid ricochets. But similar conditions exist in a house, and in particular in a development where the next hose may only be a brick veneer away.The key word is training, safety of those doing the shooting in a "fun house" is the issue, not over penetration beyond the training facility, or in the case of reactive targets, to not destroy the targets to save training costs.
