Hi, someone gave me a box of Armscor FMJ 9mm 124 grain ammo, so I went to shoot it with my STI GP6.
I used a pile of like 15 newspapers and shot from 3 meters away.
My first shot was with my 12 Gauge Shotgun, I used 00 Buckshot and it went into the newspaper and made a massive hole, no problem.
Then I used my .22 Magnum Rifle and shot the newspaper. Both bullets got inside the newspaper and expanded.
At last I used my 9mm pistol and shot 2 times. the first shot went into the newspaper and through 5 or 6 newspapers, the second bullet shocked me, it bounced off the newspaper! It bounced and was 5 meters from the place I shot the rounds. The round was intact, and had no deformation whatsoever
So this makes me think. Is this ammo defective? Do I have a big chance of having a squibload out of these rounds? Have you used Armscor ammo before?
