What 9mm ammo does the military use? While you might think the US Military would use hollow point ammo like the police or FBI/CIA agents do, they actually can only use full metal jacket (FMJ) ammo, also known as “ball ammo.” This is because of the Geneva Convention that was agreed upon to not use “fragmenting rounds” in combat (although the US never signed that specific agreement, they have almost always abided by it). The FBI has used various rounds in the past though and many of those decisions are based both on cost and effectiveness (other rounds that have passed FBI protocol checks are Federal Law Enforcement P9HST1 124gr HST JHP ammo).

Which 9mm ammo does the FBI use? As of 2018, the FBI uses Hornady Critical Duty® 9mm+P for handgun service ammunition. That makes them a great choice for indoor range shooting. While these rounds aren’t cheap (typically $0.05 to $0.10 per round higher than regular ball ammo) they use specialty “non-tox” primers, fully encapsulated bullets (TMJ), and very clean-burning powder. Which 9mm ammo burns the cleanest? Some of the cleanest burning 9mm ammo is Speer Lawman CleanFire 9mm ammo. Also, very light grain weights have low recoil, since the firearm does not need to produce excessive force in order to fire the bullet. Which 9mm ammo has the least recoil? Most subsonic 9mm ammo with have a lower recoil since they are typically loaded to a lower pressure (in order to keep the velocities below the speed of sound). Remanufactured 9mm Luger ammo can be touch and go though since Glocks have unsupported barrels that can cause case bulging or ruptures in pre-fired rounds. However, we’ve noticed brands like PMC and Federal American Eagle 9mm tend to run better in Glocks. Make sure to bring at least two forms of ID with you for the ammo transfer! Which 9mm ammo is the best for Glock 19? Non-modified Glock 19 pistols do well with almost all new manufacture 9mm ammo. That FFL will run a required background check on the purchaser as well. However, due to Proposition 63, all ammo must be shipped to a licensed FFL in California. Can you ship 9mm ammo to California? Yep, sure can. Thanks to the easy of shopping, better bulk 9mm ammo prices, and wider ammunition selection, most folks prefer to buy online (especially when ammo shortages occur). Where to buy 9mm ammo? While many folks buy their 9mm ammo in retail stores, more folks are buying 9mm Luger ammo online every day. These rounds can usually be safely fired in most modern 9mm chambered firearms though. Those designations are still the same caliber, they just have higher pressure when fired (also called “hotter” rounds). Where there is a difference in 9mm caliber ammo is with 9mm NATO and 9mm +P ammo. It’s easy to get confused about it though since many ammunition manufacturers use one or the other name.
