Punch Back Twice As Hard
Gun Rights Groups Challenge New Jersey Hollow Point Ban – Bearing Arms
(bearingarms.com)
Like a lot of people, I have two kinds of ammo. I've got FMJ for range practice, but my go-to for self-defense is hollow points of some description and has been since I first started having guns for self-defense. My father, the cop, carried hollow points in his service weapon my entire life.
The reason is pretty simple. I don't want a round over-penetrating and hitting something I don't intend to hit. In a self-defense situation, I may not be able to be that discriminating about my angles or whatever, so while I'd like to think it wouldn't be necessary, hedging my bets seems like a wise idea.
But folks in New Jersey don't have that choice.
The state banned hollow point ammunition, at least for civilian use, and they'll throw the book at anyone who has them outside the home--yes, even if you're just driving through the state with them in your lawfully owned firearm.
Now, a trio of gun rights groups are challenging that ban.
