Concur with the shotgun but no single TT&P addresses all situations, lots of variables and what if's. Shotguns are not always available to those who suddenly find themselves with the requirement to immobilize a dog.
My point with respect to conventional duty handgun and rifle ammunition is that the probability to immediately incapacitate a dog with a single round is very remote. Any handgun and rifle caliber bullet fired from short platforms designed to penetrate 12-18 inches of ballistic gelatin will create minimal muscle and bone destruction and most likely over penetrate the target.
The Le Mas armor piercing ammo demonstrates greater than 6 inch diameter living tissue permanent wound channels with respect to either appendage or thoracic cavity impacts. It does not matter how long it takes the animal to die after single round impact, it does matter how quickly the animal becomes immobile after being impacted. If a dog’s appendage bones structure, pelvic girdle, or heart and lungs are not functional after a single round impact he will very quickly sit down. Any handgun and rifle duty ammunition that will not create instantaneous death from a head shot is unsat.
- Le Mas AP 9mm CQB appendage impact when fired from the SMG
- Le Mas AP .45acp CQB head impacts
