Underwood Pistol Ammunition

Post by Ironnewt »

Anyone familiar with it? I got a deal on some 185 gr XTP JHP 45 ACP +P and some 240 gr XTP JHP 44 Magnum. I checked online and the price was about 50% of retail so I snatched it up. I have found a few reviews but was wondering if any "real folks" had any experience with this stuff.
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

I looked on their website. It would take 50% off for me to be interested in the stuff.

I shoot their 135 grain hp with my 10mm 1911 longslide. I have no complaints with it.

USA made, looks like any other ammo, in these days of shortages I am sure it would do just as well as anything. Are there complaints about quality?
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Georgia Arms is another good ammo Co. I've shot some of it.

There is a new business set up, a few miles from me, in a warehouse that had been empty for years, making ammo for sale to police and government only. This place is out in the middle of nowhere. If anyone wants to join me for a midnight procurement let me know. Of course, since it is my idea, I will supervising from afar. ;)

A after hours " visit" ??????. Sounds like fun. For someone else. That's called Felony Burglary and usually results in sub standard housing with "less" desirable room mates. Hmmmm, put me down for a pretty firm......NO ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR $@_()/:;|%]\* Mind?
And your plan to supervise from afar? Remember Watergate?

I don't need to raid a government facility for ammo because....well, I just don't. Dick was framed, had to be because he told us himself that he wasn't a crook, and he wouldn't lie right?
