I know, but the conversation was about bullets "bouncing off" of things. Yeah, 9mm tends to overpenetrate, like through multiple dry wall etc., it's one of the downsides to using 9mm indoors. That's why for interior self defense I prefer. 45 or 12-gauge.
Those 12 ga 000 balls (.38 cal) can also go right through walls as well. In all my carry pistols (9 mm) I keep Hornady Critical Defense in them. The problem with using 12 ga inside is the smoke. One shell and you have a cloud problem. .45 of course, you can never go wrong with.
There are frangible 9mm rounds that fragment into almost granular powder on impact, that can cut down on overpenetration. Besides, why waste muzzle energy on a wall, when it would be put to better use in stopping a bad guy?
I'm not a fan of frangible for home defense as the energy dissipates too easily. Better than nothing, but not optimal. The only time I've seen frangible used in a real scenario was for training related to nuclear power plant security.
That makes sense, but when they first came out they were sold mainly as a good self-defense round for inside a home or business. Guess people drifted away after the initial novelty wore off....plus they were more expensive than regular ammo.
