This video showcases a Master brand 10mm Auto 180 grain Gold Dot hollow point round with a custom 'KSP' headstamp, historically used by the Kentucky State Police. A water jug ballistics test demonstrates the significant expansion and terminal performance of this vintage duty load, with the recovered bullet showing massive deformation.
This video traces the evolution of Kentucky State Police duty sidearms, starting with the Smith & Wesson 686 revolver and progressing through semi-automatic pistols like the S&W 1076, Glock 35, and the current Glock 17 Gen 5. Ballistics tests are conducted on each caliber (.357 Magnum, 10mm, .40 S&W, 9mm) using Speer Gold Dot ammunition, revealing surprising performance differences. The adoption of Staccato 2011 models by other agencies is also noted.
