This video tests DoubleTap's Snake Shot Defense ammunition, designed for semi-automatic pistols in 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm. Unlike traditional snake shot, this load features a hollow point bullet followed by a payload of #9 shot, intended for both snake deterrence and self-defense against human threats. Testing in ballistics gel demonstrates the effectiveness of the shot payload and the penetration of the leading bullet.
This expert-level analysis from Civilian Tactical delves into the effectiveness and reliability of 9mm snake shot. The video demonstrates that while it can be effective for varmint control at close range, cycling reliability varies significantly between handgun models. Ballistics gelatin tests reveal its penetration and spread characteristics, highlighting its potential for pest control but cautioning against its use on human targets due to the risk of serious injury, particularly to the eyes.
