FBI's 1987 handgun testing

[WillBrink]

F==king Bunch of Idiots, blame the hardware and not the tactics.

Since the FBI has got involved in ammo testing they for sure did everyone a favor as all ammo is better. But I think they also stopped round development, in dictating the ideal penetration and expansion.

Maybe some calibers if not aiming for the FBI standards, could even be better than they are. I wonder if some calibers have been held back.

As much as the ammo improved by the FBI standards developed, it does seem like it's become an artificial limit to something even better.

The bottom line is this in all the reports on firearms and ammo which I am sure inside the FBI might even be in the thousands of pages, only one sentence is true.


"When potential violence is reasonably anticipated, preparations are
characterized by obtaining as many shoulder weapons as possible."

Accountants and lawyers are not who I go to for anything other than doing my taxes and keeping me out of jail. The problem with having an American passport is then all the stupid American international laws kick in. Congress passes laws to make Americans less competitive in the world, but the laws never seem to apply to them.
