Not confusing at all. full metal jacket is a lead bullet incased in steel. Hollow points are bullets that are designed to expand and fragment upon impact. The biggest difference between a fmj bullet and a hollowpoint is expansion. A fmj does not expand as well as a unjacketed hollowpoint. Yet at point blank range there is not as much expansion. +pp is personal protection ammunition that is grained higher then your standard target round. Each bullet has a certain amount of grain (gunpowder) , 170 grain , 240 grain etc. +pp ammo just has more gunpowder in it.

All of this neat information could be found on wiki if you weren't so busy trolling, just saying. If you are serious, seek help. Life is short, and should be valued. We are very lucky creatures.

It is, and it isn't. I'm sure this person has plenty of years left and I can assure you things will change. Nothing stays the same. That can be sad when things are going well, but it should also be comforting when things are crap. I can promise, it will change.

All you have to do is get through THIS day.

You're worrying. Live in the moment. If there is something you can do RIGHT NOW to make your life better, do it. If you can't, get through THIS day. Tomorrow might offer another opportunity. If you lose a place to stay, you'll figure it out when that happens. People do it all the time.

Get through THIS day.

The majority of civilian ammo will be hollow point. This is so when Trayvon acts a fool it doesn't penetrate past his chest and go into someones house.

Also, is your 357 by chance a python? Is the barrel interior in good condition with no pitting? Are the screws un-narled? Would you care to sell it if so? Just saying, I always wanted a nice python. or is it by chance a model 60? If so I want one of those too!

And all (most?) military ammo is fmj due to something dum with the Geneva convention. Our boys are literally just shooting pencil sized holes through the terrists

I never did get that, "hey lets invade iraq and shoot terrorists with 9mm ammunition made for high velocity armor peircing, who cares if they usually just wear rags, this is one of those just in case kinda scenerios!" Instead of a nice 45 acp , slow flying hard hitting ammo such as your kimber 1911 would have. Can't beat a good 45 acp round in a pistol. That shits classic.

Couldn't decide on a 1911 or AR build next, but you're helping me make a choice

Kind of like the roughly (conservative) 150,000 civilians we've murdered in Iraq since 2003.

For some reason, innocent men, women, and children don't wear body armor in the course of their daily lives.
