This video provides an expert-level demonstration of the Ed Brown Kobra Carry 25th Anniversary 1911 pistol. The presenter, identified as a subject matter expert, showcases the firearm's features, including its 'Snakeskin' treatment and custom engravings, while using Nosler ASP .45 Auto 230gr JHP ammunition. The live-fire segment highlights reliable cycling and recoil impulse, offering valuable insights for enthusiasts of high-end 1911s and defensive ammunition.

This video reviews 15 different 9mm ammunition loads suitable for self-defense in 2025, detailing their bullet weights, performance characteristics, and intended applications. It highlights key features like expansion, penetration, and recoil management for each option, offering insights for choosing the right self-defense ammunition.

This video conducts a ballistic gel test of Underwood 147 Grain +P 9mm ammunition featuring the Nosler ASP projectile. The presenter compares its performance against a previous test of Double Tap 147 Grain +P ammunition. Velocity was measured from a Canik Mete MC9 (3.1-inch barrel) and a Glock 17 (4.5-inch barrel). Gel tests evaluated expansion, penetration, and disruption.

This video presents a ballistic test of two Underwood .357 Sig self-defense ammunition loads: a 115-grain Nosler ASP and a 147-grain Hornady XTP. The test involves firing rounds through a heavy clothing barrier into ballistic gel to evaluate velocity, expansion, fragmentation, and penetration. The presenter, experienced in firearms testing, notes that while both rounds performed adequately, neither weight (115gr or 147gr) is his preferred choice for .357 Sig, favoring a 125-grain projectile for this caliber.

This Gun Talk video features Chris Cerino examining Nosler Inc.'s ASP (Assured Stopping Power) handgun ammunition in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. The primary focus is to determine the accuracy of defensive hollow-point ammunition. The description also provides a link to learn more about the Nosler ASP product line and encourages viewers to subscribe to Gun Talk for more content across various platforms.

This video demonstrates the ballistic performance of Nosler ASP ammunition in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP calibers. The test involved shooting through two layers of sheetrock with insulation and a water jug to assess penetration and expansion. The Nosler ASP bullets are designed with skives for controlled expansion and consistent penetration, aiming to hold together and penetrate targets effectively.

This video highlights Nosler's ASP ammunition, emphasizing its accuracy and consistency for defensive handgun use and competitive shooting. The speaker notes that hollow point bullets, like the ASP, are inherently more accurate and consistent due to their construction. The ammunition features skive cuts for controlled expansion and penetration, making it suitable for both self-defense and competition, even in long-barreled 9mm firearms.

This discussion delves into the nuances of bullet performance, specifically focusing on expansion and penetration dynamics. It explains how factors like velocity, bullet construction (e.g., skives in JHP bullets), and sectional density influence terminal ballistics. The conversation highlights that faster bullets don't always penetrate deeper and that solid copper bullets offer excellent weight retention and penetration.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Nosler ASP .45 ACP ammunition, specifically the 230-grain jacketed hollow points. The test evaluates expansion and penetration characteristics when fired from both a 4.25-inch and a 5-inch barrel 1911 platform. The results indicate surprisingly good expansion and penetration at subsonic velocities, with projectiles retaining their full mass.
