Compared to other top self-defense rounds:

Lead free, copper monolithic, nickel plated projectiles. For a long time shooters have been in love with the power of the 45 ACP. However, until recently, 45 ACP rounds have been very heavy and hard to control. Thankfully, that is no longer a problem. The Civil Defense 45 ACP only weighs 78 grains. Despite only weighing 78 grains, it still has more kinetic energy than almost any other 45 ACP round on the market. With the way we design our projectiles, they pack one hell of a punch. Our Civil Defense 45 ACP is more convenient and more effective than any other 45 ACP round out right now.

Our projectiles function differently than any other self-defense round on the market. We designed the Civil Defense line to eliminate threats with one round. We did this by creating the maximum amount of damage and tissue disruption possible. They do well against barriers, but when the large cavity fills with fluid, the hydraulic pressure builds until the side walls of the projectile explode. With that explosion comes rifle sized temporary cavities and hydrostatic shock, therefore increasing stopping power by tenfold. Following the explosion, the bullet fragments into a starburst-shaped pattern creating multiple wound channels. This process also benefits in many other areas across the spectrum of things considered when talking about self-defense. Such as reduced over penetration and lessening the risk of unintended casualties. Having a lighter projectile also leads to less muzzle flip for faster follow up shots. The Civil Defense 45 ACP is the best self defense 45 ACP cartridge on the market. It has more kinetic energy than any common 45 ACP self defense rounds, except the projectile is far lighter and more convenient to carry. It’s the best of both worlds, more effective than any 45 ACP, with more convenience than any other cartridge on the market. It is also lead free and California compliant.

Liberty makes the highest quality 10mm ammo

May 14, 2023

Ive used Liberty Civil Defense for years in my 10mm. Ive ran it through my agency issued S&W 1076, Glock 20 and Glock 40 MOS, and it has never failed. During my career inlaw enforcement, on several occasions i was required to report to the medical examiners office to retrieve projectiles from suspects that had been involved in a shooting with a Trooper, so Ive saw first hand what typical copper jacketed lead projectile does in a real world defense situation, and in comparison to the Civil Defense in ballistic gel, I carry Liberty ammunition in my EDC weapon, over all others. Social media is over ran with individuals claiming this ammo is “gimmicky” because of their “standards” of performance, and insist that a projectile that explodes so violently wont penetrate deep enough, neglecting the energy dump on impact. That energy will literally liquify everything a perpetrator needs to stay above room temperature.

Mr. Smith,

Thank you for your service to the community.

We appreciate your first-hand knowledge of the effectiveness of our ammo.

The social media warriors typically know very little but make broad based claims.

We appreciate the LE, Operators and Contractors that use our ammo.

We’ll keep making the best ammo for the pros and ignore the social media keyboard cowboys.

Hot stuff

I bought some of this a good while ago before the website update, and I can tell you this is some spicy stuff. Fired out of a Beretta 96 and my buddies HiPoint Carbine you can definitely tell these boys chooch.

Outstanding ammunition

May 14, 2023

I switched my defensive loads to Liberty’s offerings early last year, and now rely on them exclusively. I use 9mm +P, .357 Sig and .40 S&W. On the range during evaluation, all performed flawlessly. Thank you!

Safety

May 14, 2023

Wanting to buy 38 specials rounds, are they safe to use in S&W 38 air weight, gun weighs 14.4 ounces

Response from Liberty Ammunition

Bogie,

Our rounds should work fine with any 38 Special.

But those lighter guns have some snappy recoil with any round.

Our 380 Civil Defense Rounds Changed The Pocket Pistol Game. For A Long Time, Everyone Criticized The 380 ACP For Not Having Enough Kinetic Energy. That’s Not The Case Anymore. Our 380 Is One Of Our Most Sought After Rounds Because It Packs Enough Punch, It Gets The Job Done.
