Quote:
During the video taped interview by cops at the scene which was shown at the trial and televised, George Zimmerman says his firearm was loaded with 9MM hollow point projectiles.
The autopsy report shows that the bullet fragmented into at least two pieces.
Apparently, the hollow point round was ultimately effective, but Trevon replied after he was shot, "OK - you got me." So, according to Zimmerman, Trevon lived for a time after the direct shot to the heart at near point blank range.
Based on this, I am assuming that the 9mm is probably not a good choice for self defense in concealed carry situations. Based on this, I'm not real comfortable with 9MM but these guns tend to be small enough for pocket carry. I would NEVER use the 9mm for home defense - way too light; right?
Frankly, the 40S&W is a much better choice for concealed carry.

Drawing a conclusion like this from one event is probably not very wise. But out of curiosity, what type of result would be acceptable to you in this situation?
I am sure this video has been posted here before, I found it interesting.
