[Guest Schwarzgebrannt]

[Dolomite_supafly]

Those would definitely put a stop to things, especially those super aggressive elephants you might come across.

 

Never seen a 40mm hollow point although I have shot quite a few 40mm grenades.

We need to just go ahead and ban those things right now :rofl:

[Guest Schwarzgebrannt]

yeah well i dont see the point in also doign tax stamps on every single dang time i want to make a boom, and training nades are tarded price anyway, so i figured i could go with something that would be pretty decisive for home defense as well.

You could put a tree hugger down, WITH HIS TREE using of them. Save you from getting that mess on your shoe by stomping them out.

I read that as .40 Cal not mm. Explain that one to a judge and jury.

hey i like to needle ppl as much as the next guy but that caliber justs sounds harsh

[gjohnsoniv]

Seriously, shoot someone with one of those and there will be a whole lot of explaining to do.

[nightrunner]

Im thinking its for low cost practice but i may be wrong.

[RED333]

[McAllyn]

Seriously, shoot someone with one of those and there will not be a whole lot of someone left.

.40 hollowpoints?  I think the DHS bought all of those.

[TMF]

So are we seriously talking about 40mm hollow points? Haven't seen 'em in anything but tpt, hedp and smoke. I got a line on some hedp, but you'd have to buy a plane ticket to come pick it up.

[Guest carter]

40mm! not 40 S&W lol i would buy a lathe and just some aluminum round stock and make some

40mm hollow point....for when you absolutely, positively, and without a shadow of a doubt, have to make a BIG hole in whatever you are aiming at! Maybe we can get Wally World to start carrying them! :)

[Romad7]

Just in case anyone is seriously considering this it looks to me like this would be very illegal without a tax stamp for each round. A hollow point 40mm would be difficult to explain as anything other than an anti-personnel round, especially if you to turn a person into a cloud of red sauce:-)

I wanted to do a less than lethal (most likely lethal though) rubber buckshot 37mm round but it didn't seem legal after researching either.

That is not something that I would be experimenting with these days and as someone who works in a machine shop, please don't have someone build one for you and put their business and freedom at risk.

Play safe out there

[Guest carter]

indeed... i believe the only thing that is legal are flares out of any launcher... anything else is a felony

[gjohnsoniv]

No, you can fire batons, rubber buck, less lethal stuff, chalk rounds, etc out of a launcher if it is registered as a DD. In the case of something like a 40mm HEDP round that would have to be registered as well as the launcher. That's my understanding at least, take it with a grain of salt and read the rules and regs for yourself.
