armor is getting better and AP has legal restrictions that vary from local and with federal law. EDIT Much armor penetration is possible by fully loaded M-193 fmj out of a 20 inch barre. But not all.
I believe Clint Smith said shoot 'em in the crotch! Point he made is it's the first thing you'll cross when you pull your gun. I apologize to Clint if I got this wrong, It's been a while since I watched that video. It makes absolute sense when you think of it.
No only is it a form of birth control, but it should take out the femoral arteries that will end life in a minute or so.
There is really no excuse to mace people because you disagree with their posters and banners.
Learn to make head shots, and not center mass. If they are sideways, aim for the armpit.
The group whose training i follow are big into making head shots. That is one of the reasons for putting optics on your carry pistol. They are very concerned with terrorist the possibility of explosive vests. The thought being that a head shot will prevent them from pushing a button. Well I am at the movement more concerned with body armor.
Shoot for the pelvic arch. I think that's what Cirillo used to do. He found it extremely effective.
This could be where a 1911 has an advantage over a 9mm, but I have not seen any proof one way or the other on such shots from a pistol putting someone down then and there.
I wouldn't want to get shot with anything! Just sayin'
The question was in my mind of being able to break or smash the pelvis causing a man to go down.
Just the shock coming from impact with a vest in the nether regions should rattle the balls enough to effectively slow someone down I would think.
Again I would NOT be the one to find out.
