I am just about ready to start my new job as an armored truck driver in PA. We will be going into NJ on occasion so I can't carry my hollow points. Any suggestions to feed my Glock 19?

Hornady Critical Defense,My father just retired from a PD and even retired he cant carry hollow points so he carries critical defense which is not considered hollow points in NJ. I also carry critical defense in my MP9c as off duty ammo. You should shoot a few rounds through your glock and give them a try. They are very smooth and accurate rounds. Ive shot them through a .38,.380, 9mm and 45 with no issues at all. Bill

I like the Corbon pow'r ball.

Critical defense is a hollow point with polymer squished into the cavity, correct? Do we have legit confirmation from a state official, in writing, that such ammunition is not considered HP?

For what its worth I found this, there may be other stuff out there. I doubt you will get a certified letter stating anything from NJ, as they are not in the ammo certification business. They will ultimately tell you to talk to a lawyer. Up to you to decipher the law for yourself, and do what is most comfortable for you while being in NJ with a firearm and ammo. My link

In my mind a restuffed potato is still a potato and a hollowed out bullet stuffed with a dissimilar material is still a hollow point, but we all know how wacky these legislators are.

 

The ammo engine classify it as a Flex-Tip and in the ads on their web-site indicate "won’t plug up like conventional hollow points".

 

AMMO TO GO lists it as...

"25rds - 9mm Hornady Critical Defense 115gr HP Ammo

[90250]

 

This is 9mm Hornady Critical Defense 115gr Hollow Point Ammo.The new Hornady Critical Defense ammunition is the pinnacle in self defense ammunition. Using a variation of the tip material used in the revolutionary LEVERevolution® line of ammunition, Hornady engineers were able to achieve 100% reliable expansion every single time. Conventional hollow point pistol bullets have always had issues with the cavity becoming clogged with fibers from clothing which rendered them very ineffective in terms of expansion in soft tissue after encountering the clothing barrier. Critical Defense eliminates this issue — guaranteed."

Guys - it's been discussed here like crazy.

 

Hornady Critical Defense, Federal EFMJ and Corbon Pow'R'Ball are all NJ legal:

Cool! I am learning something new every day on these forums. Thanks for reposting that!
