40 S&W One shot Stopping power? (VIDEO)
Fernando,
You need to check this out. Dashcam video of an Oregon trooper shootout on the side of the road.
The guy was pulled over for whatever reason. He then started firing at
the trooper who fired back. They guy was hit in the chest. I believe
there is a moment in the video where you can see his clothes move so you
can tell it’s the moment he was hit. Didn’t knock him back or
anything. He was able to keep firing, then get back in his car. He was
hit so severely that he died 1/2 a mile away. Toxicology tests would
determine if he had anything in his system that allowed him to take the
hit.
This is a perfect example of not only choosing the right caliber but the
right load and bullet type. Would love to know what type of round the
police officer used. Whatever he had, it didn’t have that much stopping
power.
pistol was a Glock in 40S&W, ammo used was some quality JHP with good stopping
power reputation. I’m more curious about
exactly where he got shot in the torso. That tends to matter more than the
caliber and brand of ammo.
once in the chest with a 40 S&W (expect to miss in a gunfight… a lot) and even though he
was later found dead he clearly was still capable of both shooting back and
escaping. Guns aren’t death rays people.
Carry a powerful caliber that you can handle and shoot fast and accurately but fully expect to continue shooting until the threat
is stopped.
he was supposed to. He saw the strange behavior, the hands behind his back, but
kept his cool until he saw that the suspect was armed. Wit and quick reaction
saved the officers life, even though he did get shot he’s in no danger,
probably thanks to body armor. Body Armor is a great thing to have when there’s a chance of getting shot. Still something very much overlooked by most people.
wrong will most likely go wrong in a gunfight. The suspect accidentally engages
the magazine release and drops the magazine of his weapon, something that may
have saved the officers life. Think about that next time you consider changing
your Glocks tiny mag release for an extended tacticool one you were told all
high speed low drag operators use!
