Re: What type of ammo to CHL?
I carry Federal Premium LE Tactical HST in 9mm. I'm guessing it works, if I had a ballistics gel dummy I'd love to find out for sure, but in the meantime it's what I have. LEOs have stricter safety constraints than we do, so I'm only making the assumption that these bullets help bridge that gap between safety and effectiveness albeit still to a very lethal point.

Glock 19 - Personal favorite
Beretta 92FS - First gun ever to own.
Bersa Thunder .380 - If I had bullets I'd have broken it in by now... might should have gotten a Sig instead.

JHPs of different brands and calibers depending on CW of choice for any given day. I lean towards Speer Gold Dots every chance i get tho.
