I have mixed feelings about companies restricting (lawful) products to (only their preferred) sub-groups for private internal reasons. I'll avoid sensitive discussion -- since this is a sponsored video -- but will state I have older mentors who had to live through that. I look forward to seeing more products that are more accessible, well performant, and novel engineering for self-protection! Cheers!

Nice round. G9 can kick rocks until they sell to "civillians".

dude, i just stumbled upon this video. and in all honesty ive not perused the entire library of vids, however if they are even close to this quality and info packed, you have a sub for life. there is all info and no uneeded b.s. and no 5 minute intro, i despise intros. not only have you earned a sub (binge watch will begin as soon as this comment is posted) but i am currently also perusing the g9 defense website, and loving what im seeing. i, in all honesty was expecting about 3 dollars per round, like the unattainable r.i.p. rounds. but pleased to see that this line is not at all overpriced and comparable to other self defense ammo. well done on both, you as a creator(information creator, not "content" creator lol) as well as g9 defense. im quite pleased and thankful to have stumbled upon this pile of goodness. thank you.

Neat concept, but they can pound sand until they sell to everyone

Thanks for doing this test. That deformation of the G9 on windshield is the deal breaker for me. I figured it would have issues retaining the flutes when hitting metal/ windshields. Either of the JHPs will do better against windshield even without expanding. HST seems to still be on top.

G9 vs. XD test is definitely needed.

I'd love to see a head to head test of these against the Underwood Xtreme Defenders, my current carry ammo for my P365X.

Excellent review, very thorough.

Those cases are awesome. Picked up 1500 and the special resizing die. You can load them HOT with no issues. I mean like 124 grain 9mm at 1300fps out of a glock 48 with no pressure signs

I’ll stick with 124 +p HSTs and Gold Dots.

Nice work and thank you. Would be interested in seeing the 124+p woodsman (G9) run through your test.

Tons of information! Well done. Watched beginning to end.

Hi Matt, Thanks so much for all the time and effort you put into making this extensive testing video. I was shocked at the velocities on the G9 ammo. I also have to compliment your shooting skills. Your shot placement was perfection. The groups were insanely good too. I was wondering if you could share the distance at which you zero your 9mm carry pistols? I learned a ton about the G9 ammo here and it's impressive stuff to say the very least. Have a great rest of the week brother. PS, that Caldwell rest is the beezneez, I gotta grab one. Hopefully they're still available. Last think, I love both the 407K and the 507C w/ACSS. Awesome RDS units at good prices.

Excellent round. Like most other consumers, G9 doesn't mean shi to me if i can't purchase and carry it.

Thank you so much! This is a very informative video! I really like my Xtreme Defenders. These are pretty sweet.

Great informative test. Keep up the good work. Your test was a lot of work!

I would like to see the G9 against what I carry. The Underwood Extreme Defender 90 grain 9mm

To everyone saying they can kick rocks because they dont sell the exact same bullets to non Le - The "civilian" round has far superior wounding and penetration then traditional hollow points. Far less deviation through glass, with great barrier penetration results. The only thing the "law enforcement" version does that the civilian version doesn't is penetrate level 3a vest that cops wear. So you can pout and feel like you're being treated inferior, or you can buy the ammunition that will protect you and your family better. I've seen the civilian 9mm / 45/ and 10mm used in live flesh (hogs), and they create wounds about double the size hst create and penetrate further. I don't need to penetrate level 3a vest, so it's definitely good enough for me, and I appreciate the innovation. My 12 gauge also doesn't penetrate level 3a vest, but I'm still grabbing my 590a1 in a home invasion, and I'm pretty sure I'll be alright. Vest or not

G9 vs Fort Scott

It's pretty cool to see what modern bullets and powder can do for old calibers.

I know you like to handload some of your own, so... getcha some *Vihtavuori 3N38 and 124gr XTPs.* I had to get a Lone Wolf (Alpha) barrel to support longer seating depths, but with that powder, I'm pushing 124 grainers right at 1450fps out of a 5" barrel. The best part is - believe it or not - it's not overpressure. There's something magical about that powder. You can literally cram as much of it into a case as possible and not see so much as a hint of pressure signs on brass. If you'd like, I'd be happy to send ya some to try out. I'd be very curious to see what that 16" barrel would get out of them.

Is the external hollowpoint projectile a gimmick? Is the damage in gel just something that happens in gel and is used to sell to people who dont know any better? I didnt think human tissue cavitated and ripped at such low velocities.

Very informative as always

You should also do 380s which are becoming very popular

Hey buffman, could you do a video comparing the civilian 80 grain loadings against common hollow points like the hornady, Speer, and federal? I’ll be more than happy to send whatever you need your way.

What's amazing to me is how the G2 research RIP is not affected by two 2x4s Now that's some good stuff

Good job. Thanks

Enjoyable, thanks.

Great content on this channel, keep up the good work. Please do the new federal 70gr frangable, is advertising 1600fps would love to know if that's real.

Looks kinda like a Extreme Defender rip-off, no agency's would touch that but I like those fast ones.

So you telling me this is what Le is using right now? There is all types of ammo that come in a "duty"box such as gold dots, such as Federal Hydra shock duty version. There is a All copper projectile made by fort Scott munitions it is exceptional and defeating any type of barrier and it's called t u i or tumble upon impact, they look like rifle bullets. They leave a mean wound channel that surpasses a hollow point because the tumbling makes it two more damage

Impressive stuff

Ive been searching forever for a 77g 9x19mm bullet to see what it would do. I wonder if anyone has many anything that closer resembles a spitzer bullet.

Where is the 45 of this Ammo

You need to get you a hands on some ABC ammunition made in the '80s the armor penetrating kind for handguns

Any idea why g9 won't sell their apc or first responder rounds and only sells ehp? And why do they keep changing from 77 grain to 80 grain?

Id rather support fort scott tui. Cool product though.

How does this compare to the Underwood Extreme Defender round?

Hold on, I thought the whole and only reason police use hollow points is to minimize casualties and over penetration so who is this for exactly the kill team?

Bro these things are available all over the internet you need to be law enforcement The only bullets I seen that having to be a qualification for is the 50 pack of gold that's

Great example why lV is becoming bare minimum these days

I just want to do website these bullets are available for civilian purchase they are expensive as hell $40 for 20 is not the best deal but hey you get what you pay for

Over penetration for self-defense ammo. And you generally get a little bit more penetration in actual tissue than you do in gel, but it's hard to tell because I've never been attacked by a bowl of jello nor do I expect to be. I certainly do not consult with the FBI to determine what is best for personal defense. Because they don't do personal defense they do controlled defense drills where are they usually have somebody else if not two or three other officers with them to help them defend themselves. I do not pick the cheapest ammo to shoot, nor do I pick the ammo that I can shoot the next round the fastest because I want each and every round to do just as much damage as it possibly can out of a pistol. Not that I don't care for 9 mm because I do have a Browning high power which is literally the most accurate 9mm pistol I have ever seen. It gets enough velocity to make the 9 mm and adequate self-defense cartridge, but I still prefer 40 Smith 357 Sig and 357 Magnum and 45 ACP all are better cartridges than 9 mm. And gimmicky rounds are exactly that, gimmicky. Interesting that it cuts through 3A body armor, which would tend to make me wonder whether or not anybody should be carrying it. Especially given the piss poor terminal performance that it exhibits. Also answers why I use a titanium chest plate with my body armor.

They actually sell them to the public on their website. My question is is the 9x19 much more powerful than a 380 gold dot or 380 ranger T-Series?

Wunderwaffe

Copying Underwood?

I dont endorse anything or anyone who endorses companies that dont support civilians to defend themselves especially from people who waive the American flag and talk about gunrights this channel will be blocked from hopefully ever seeing it again

Brother again do you need me to send you a link to where you can purchase it for yourself? Simply Google and you shall find
