These bullets achieve extremely high velocities from standard handguns. These ammunition cartridges use a monolithic copper bullet that is lighter a normal bullet of the same caliber. It is designed to quickly incapacitate a violent attacker by causing massive hemorrhaging, while still allowing for enough penetration to reach vital organs and crush bones. What is Liberty Civil Defense Ammo?Ĭivil Defense is the company’s line of civilian ammunition. So a lighter bullet traveling twice as fast as a heavier bullet should have a similar total energy disbursement and therefore similar results right? This is what I was determined to find out. I began thinking back to high school physics which reminded me, MASS x VELOCITY = MOMENTUM. My Five seveN ammunition travels about 2300 feet per second out of a 5” barrel, and its a 27 grain bullet with a rifle style cartridge. 50 grain for a 9mm bullet? What were they thinking! But then after reading further, I saw how fast this projectile traveled. I immediately noticed how light the bullets when compared to the other personal defense ammunition on the market. When I first heard about Liberty Civil Defense ammunition, I was one of the first to dismiss this new light aluminum ammunition as another marketing gimmick, but the ammo intrigued me so I decided to do some research and see what this ammo was all about. Whats up with this aluminum hollow point ammo I keep hearing about?
