ShootingTheBull410 Lehigh Defense Follow-Up: The Denim Challenge

Dan Zimmerman - comments No comments

Last week I showed you one of the most impressive and savage bullets, the Lehigh Defense Maximum Expansion round from a Taurus Judge. It performed amazingly well, but it raised a very valid question — how would that massive hollowpoint cavity handle four layers of heavy denim? All it took was a quick trip to the range, a leftover gel block and a pull of the trigger to give us the answer.

  1. So if their guns are offsite now, and they have another encounter with a BG, do they get to file suit for 2a rights being taken away?

  2. oooOOOoohh i get it now! took me a sec. yeaaah… i expected the pun to be tied to the name barnes or blackout.

    hold on – is it really a pun if ‘bullet’ is not mentioned? the wordplay nomenclature confuses me half to death.

  3. Watts and her tiny band of bored housewives (they claim 100,000 but this is merely people who put their email’s into MDA’s website, no dues or any commitment required, active members are probably a few hundred max) have proven themselves to be extremely proficient at mass media manipulation. Their tireless, shrill media campaign against Starbucks kind of, sort of made them nicely ask people to leave their guns at home, if they would be so kind. Beyond that, they have accomplished nothing aside from continually rustling our jimmies with their unchecked, rampant propaganda. But as many of us know, Watts has no intention of engaging us in constructive dialogue, nor do 99% of anti’s. She has a list of “demands” and she will not go away until they are accomplished. This runs the gamut from forcing “smart guns”, banning modern rifles & standard magazines, banning online ammo purchases, you name it. We need to fight this whenever and wherever it pops up legislatively, but engaging her ilk is akin to the old metaphor about wrestling with a pig.

  4. What I don’t understand is the notion that guns make people bad, or that if these same looters didn’t have guns, they’d be great citizens. Where does this mystical power of the gun come from? Reminds me of comments on the 40 people of the gun at the mda meeting (of all 4 members) that said, “what’s keeping those armed people from flipping out and shooting everyone?”

  5. If the PS-90 didn’t exist, I would say this thing is great.

    Knowing that they do exist, though, and aren’t even terribly difficult to find, I have to ask what the hell the marketing team at MPA was smoking when they thought this thing could compete with a SBR PS-90 in any way, shape, or form. I guess if you REALLY wanted a short barrel P90 but absolutely couldn’t afford to go over a grand, this would be your only option, but I don’t see that happening for very many people.

  6. I’m particularly a fan of how they just slapped some grip tape on the side of the magwell to help you hold onto the otherwise perfectly smooth piece of square tubing.

  7. The Philippines is 105th in the world in gun ownership. That’s far lower than such gun culture paradises as Denmark(54th) and Germany(15th).

    Maybe there’s other things behind the murder rate than ‘gun culture’?

  8. I re-stocked one of my 91/30s with a Boyd thumbhole stock. It’s a well-made and beautiful stock, but a thumbhole design generally leaves something to be desired, which is not peculiar to the Boyd model. Also, the comb and cheek piece work fine for iron sights, but the comb is too low for a scope.

  9. Shannon Watts should watch this video to get an understanding of how the Taliban actually deals with people (specifically women) they don’t like:

    Sorry Mrs Watts. No matter what you believe, people making you feel bad about your wrong and unpopular political opinions are not the same as a bullet through the brain.

  10. I have a BRO AR 15 and love it. It is my favorite gun. To me, one thing that I like about it, is that it has a crisp feeling. Nothing feels loose, wobbles, or makes extra noise. I have other AR 15s and they all feel loose to me.

  11. I love the low recoil part, never heard anyone claim a particular ammo doesn’t recoil hard enough, but I don’t like the low penetration aspect.

    Only use ammo that meets FBI or IWBA protocols is my go-to philosophy, at least until something better is substantiated.

    I have to admit though, I’m very impressed, technologically speaking.
