I was wondering if anyone carries their CCW with FMJ bullets in the mag?

When I watch shows like "First 48" it seems like the thugs are using FMJ.

It seems most people I know use JHP like I do.

Which do you use?

I carry Speer Gold Dot JHPs in my EDC (.45), but I actually prefer FMJ when carrying my P3AT. From what I've read and seen, the .380 just doesn't have the best penetration when using JHP.

I've carried 124gr. FMJ in my Glock 19. Mostly because it was when I had shot up all of my old Hydra-shoks that were getting dingey and scuffed up. Federal came out with a .45 caliber pesonal defense low recoil 165gr. expanding FMJ that I like for my 1911's.

For 45 ACP (my primary carry gun): Hornady TAP 230 JHP or 230 JHP Golden Sabers. But I would have no problem with FMJ loads for the ACP, you can be sure it is not going to get any smaller than a 357 SIG or 40.
