The biggest issue here is your ammo choices aren't great anyway. The performance numbers on the 135 Hydroshocks are not great. Bad penetration numbers. Then with 9mm ball you've got no expansion. Plus, I'm just not a Glock fan......... Get yourself some gold dots or rangers. Check out the ammo section in the AR15 forum for decent carry loads that meet FBI specs.

I disagree about hte ammo. I have used the Hydra-shok for quite a while on hog hunts. I have found it to penetrate extremely well.
Best penetration was a 10 yard 'quartering' shot in to a hog's right shoulder. The round broke the right shoulder, blew out a chunk of spine, continued to the left shoulder, broke that, and then lodged under the hide on the left side of the hog. Three major muscle areas and three bone structures...
IMHO, a defensive round should NOT exit the target. If it does, then you havea round travelling downrange that you are NOT in control of.
If you hit someone with that round, you are liable.
I don't want more than what I am carrying in that 135 grain bullet. It has already proven it can do the job, more than once.
