Critical Defense was engineered to deliver optimal performance in personal protection scenarios, making it the premier choice for short-barreled, concealed-carry firearms. The nickel-plated cases offer excellent corrosion resistance and facilitate chamber checks in dim lighting. The specially formulated propellants ignite rapidly to minimize recoil and reduce muzzle flash, helping to maintain night vision. Featuring a patented FTX bullet with a Flex Tip, it expands consistently and avoids the clogging issues that can affect other hollow points when penetrating heavy clothing. Critical Defense excels in close-quarters and short-range engagements.
