Doesn't it require 2700 fps for fragmentation to occur? I'm seeing these and starting to get the itch to get one.
I've always read around 2500 is the threshold...below and you are getting less reliable. Around 2100-2200 fps, and no frag. Over 2500 and gets better and better.
As always, lets not compare apples and oranges. An AR15
pistol does
not take the place of an AR15
rifle.
If going into harms way I would much rather be carrying one of my rifles...despite the fact that my AR15 pistol is a favorite gun of mine. I have realistic expectations.
If in CQB environ or traveling in a vehicle (read drivers seat), the AR15 pistol is a viable option IMO....
As for
wetpack is is a very different medium from ballistic gel or human flesh. I have never trusted the results for accurately extrapolating what a round will do in a live creature...no offense.
But this is the interweb and you get what you paid for!
Cheers all,

FIGJAM...what was the bbl length those were shot out of?
