Title: This is the last bullet you’ll ever need

Decent video at link.

Meet the RIP round from G2 Research.

Not only does this bullet look scary, it does scary things.

It was intended to be used for gun-toting women against would-be attackers, and it’s guaranteed to kill anyone dumb enough to assault anyone who has this in the chamber.

The Truth About Guns tested the 9mm RIP round.

It performed less well than Federal HST, costs a hell of a lot more, and had FTF in the test Glock 19.

Even if G2 makes a .357 or .45, I'll stick with what I'm using now.
