g9 defense 1 word wow by Bri, January 9, 2024
g9 defense 1 word (wow), this is a fantastic round for concealed carry. Having an external hollow point round is extremely valuable. Having the ability to shoot through a front windshield on a car with little to no bullet drop.

G9 Defense by Aimright, Verified Owner, September 24, 2025
Excellent defensive ammo. I have fortunately not had to try it in real life (ironic pun intended) but it cycles well in my Taurus GX4 XL. There are many other positive reviews about which I have read. Keep this one in your "ready mags".

Features of G9 Defense 9mm Luger 80 Grain Hollow Point Brass Cased Pistol Ammunition

  • Shape Charge Technology: Fluted channels create a high-speed jet of liquified tissue upon impact, resulting in extensive tearing and significantly larger wound channels.
  • Superior Wounding: The EHP generates a permanent wound cavity 3-5 times greater than traditional jacketed hollow points, maximizing stopping power.
  • Consistent Penetration: Optimized to penetrate approximately 18 inches in ballistic gel, ensuring controlled penetration with minimal risk of over-penetration. Effective even through common barriers like clothing, drywall, and glass.
  • Barrier Blind Performance: Maintains high performance through barriers, neutralizing threats with minimal deflection and increased reliability.
  • High Reliability: Achieves over 99% reliability, significantly reducing failure risk in critical situations compared to traditional hollow points that fail to expand about one-third of the time.
  • Reduced Recoil: The lightweight solid copper design ensures lower felt recoil, allowing for faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy.
  • Waterproofed: All G9 rounds are waterproofed for consistent performance in any condition.
  • Less Carrying Weight: For example, in 9mm, a loaded EHP weighs 24% less than a 115gr round, 30% less than a 124gr round, and 46% less than a 147gr round, enhancing comfort for concealed carry and reducing loadout weight for duty use.
