I read this from another forum and to be blunt, think I should be looking for an RPG for PP. The perp ambushed officers using a 45acp and was involved in a 3 and a half minute gunfight.

If I read rightThe perp was hit 6 times mostly torso hits with 180gr gold dot and then hit with 16 rounds from a 223, 13 of which were passthroughs. They still had to fight him to cuff him! I am assuming he died as he had an autopsy performed.

The initial report from the coroner siad the 40S&W gold dot expanded but only penetrated an inch. The brief at the bottom says that some of the information regarding this was wrong. I have never been a real big fan of 180gr 40S&W ammo, but I wish they had posted what the gold dots really did.
