    Default Cheaper Than Dirt

    Cheaper Than Dirt August 2008-Catalog #108 (just got it in the mail)
    Page 3 has an article on Dynamic Research Technologies.
    DRT 9mm Ammo One of a kind.

    This is the first I ever heard of it and it is very interesting.

    Looks interesting, my only concern is that it will under penetrate. I am also concerned about energy upon impact. Is this a factor with frangible ammo?

    Nasty. How is it calibrated? The article says it can be calibrated for thin metal or thick layers of steel. Sounds unique, but they really don't go into details. If I were to depend on that round, I would want to know the mechanics of the calibration.

    I just read the same thing...
    Does anyone know about the product? It claims to be able to go through steel plate.


    I would like to find out more

    The article says the round has been 'hush-hush' for years.
    Well, they did a good job ------This is the first I ever heard of this round and the only information I have is what I posted.

    The bottom of the article states: "We have been ask not to tell stories of this ammo being used in ths big sand box, but the stories are getting out and the unheard of results have increased demand for this one of a kind."

    Seem the writer whats to give the impression that this round is being used in
    the on going war.

    ~GUESS MORE INFO WILL BE GETTING OUT-----SOON~

    sounds almost fake to me. I mean, the article, chicks with guns on box. seems like a huge marketing ploy of some sort.

    i could be wrong, it just doesn't seem right to me.

    If you want to know what it is, it's really "blended metal" ammunition.

    Video regarding the idea behind it



    I think I'll stick to carrying regular ol hollows
