G9 Defense Factory Second ammunition includes minor cosmetic imperfections that occur during the manufacturing process. These imperfections do not create functional issues; however, there may be slight performance variations from the our standard spec ammunition.
The External Hollow Point (EHP) is a precision made defensive handgun round that has unmatched reliability. The reliability comes from the fact that it does not require expansion to create devastating wounds and not over-penetrate. This is due to the unique and patented shape of the projectile. Rather than expansion, it utilizes its shape to create cavitation by way of fluid dynamics that enlarges wounds and uniformly transfers energy to repeatedly penetrate to an optimal depth. The EHP is a truly barrier blind munition. It is precision machined from solid copper and has no possibility of jacket separation no matter what barrier is encountered. It passes through common barriers without transferring energy so there is still a uniform and dynamic effect on the intended target. EHP technology employs light for caliber projectiles. This not only increases the amount of kinetic energy that gets transferred into the terminal target, it significantly reduces felt recoil.
- The External Hollow Point™ bullet features proprietary geometry on the exterior of the projectile that produces a barrier blind capability and extreme wounding as it goes through the target.
- The uniquely shaped tip allows penetration of common barriers such as windshields, drywall and vehicle sheet metal with no projectile deformation.
- While designed to cut through hardened materials, the EHP™ round slows quickly in tissue to prevent over-penetration. The shape of the External Hollow Point™ is engineered to immediately transfer the maximum amount of energy laterally upon impact with tissue, creating a bursting-type entrance wound, large temporary cavitation and a controlled depth of penetration not seen in Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) or conventional Hollow Point (HP) projectiles.
- In addition to reliable penetration and immediate energy transfer into the target, the lightweight EHP™ projectile greatly reduces felt recoil, allowing for rapid follow up shots.
- Every aspect of the G9 External Hollow Point™ has been scrutinized and engineered to produce the best carry ammunition for a defensive handgun. As a responsible citizen, your training should include scenarios that are realistic. The ammunition you select should be up to the job as well.

80gr seconds
As always, G9 fails to disappoint. After inspection of the rounds they all look identical to my regular orders of the 80gr EHP, and my box I test fired to confirm POI was the same as well. G9 saved my life from a vicious stray dog attack two years ago. Factoring in their engineering wizardry to make such a flat shooting round that produces such amazing results, I'll have G9 loaded in my conceal carry for the rest of my life.

Great ammo - the best really
YT videos brought me to G9 and 9mm in all reality. I was a 5.7 guy and thought I was solid in that space. A Paul Harrell video gave me doubts about my ammo choice (mainly accuracy). Some of the G9 videos and reviews by others brought me to G9. It's now my go to ammo as primary. I've shot it from a 365, FNX-9 and a Hellcat Pro and the ammo is outstanding in every way measurable. When one of my shooting friends, does me a solid, I say "thanks" by giving them some G9.
