Glock carry ammo suggestions please
« on: January 10, 2013, 08:05:11 AM »
So, forgive me for being a little short on basics but basically my brother in law in Illinois has picked up a Gen 3 Glock, full size ( 4 inch? 5?) shooter in .45acp. I forget which model he has. The problem is with all the concers out there and current legislation pending in Il law, he can't find any hollow points for defensive rounds, only ball ammo. I'm going to pick up a box or two of defensive rounds but don't know much about Glocks. Any advice on what runs good?

www.grafs.com  See if grafs delivers to Illinois. I use Hornady for my 10mm. I think any name brand will run through his gun with zero problems. Glocks are reliable even though some guys think they're ugly. I've pretty much always carried a Glock.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I picked him up a box of Winchester 185gr Silvertips and a box of 185gr Z-Max zombie rounds....


That way, whether the threat is from the living or dead, he is covered.

I have some Winchester Ranger Talons in the safe.  I don't have a full box, but I'm sure I could donate enough to fill a mag.  Lemme know.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
