Just saw that on Facebook. Dang, what a nasty mess that would make. 

[TMF]

That looks like a coroner's nightmare.

[bersaguy]

Now that is some kind of wicked for sure. I doubt there would be any walking away from that with any type of abdominal hit what so ever and surely it would sever and arm or leg.  Awesome for sure!!!!!!

[Raoul]

Kinda like flechettes for a handgun.

That looks like a coroner's nightmare.

Actually I think it would make for a pretty open and shut case. "Cause of death, huge gaping chest cavity." Or "Back of head missing."

[dralarms]

I got to get me some of those. That's wicked.

Something that awesome has got to be against the law.

+1 or will be shortly. Cool video though.

[luvmyberetta]

How about R.I.P. vs a raw chicken...

Probably already banned in New York and California.

 

That's just nasty looking from a G18 in ballistic gel.  Like a copper Halo Needler.

Cnc machined, probably going to be around $12.93 per round. :)

[Oh Shoot]

Only 90 gr too. Then again, it's not lead, so...

Less than 3 bucks a round for 9mm.

I'm going to wait for 40 or 45.

Even bigger, hell yes!!

I'm with ya on the .40! Crazyness in the ballistic gel video, can't wait to see more.

[Joe357]

I want some!

[Luke E.]

I may just go ahead an order some for my carry. My M&P is 17+1 so at almost $3 per round this could get pricey ;)

[Static_USMC]

To bad you can't 3d print in copper

[Luke E.]

 I wonder if they would sell just the projectile... Might be fun to work up loads for.

[Dolomite_supafly]

At 90 grains I do not see it penetrating too deep. I suspect the ballistic gelatin wasn't calibrated to be equal to human flesh. The chicken can be duplicated by 410 loaded with birdshot.

[nightrunner]

Look at the Barnes TAC XPD. Light weight bullets for caliber, solid copper, excellent penetration.

[DMark]

Then again, it's not lead, so...

 

No LEAD!

 

That means it will make all of the tree huggers happy because its a Green product!  :pleased:

The 9mm xpd rounds are 25 grains heavier and designed to retain weight on impact.  The R2 ammo breaks up into 9 very small sections.  That's pretty much the same as firing 9 #BBB shot pellets at probably a speed of around the 1450 fps mark.  It looks interesting, but without seeing some serious independent testing i wouldn't trust my life to it.
