Post your tense moments

This thread is inspired by the events of this morning feel free to post up your stories.

This morning I was doing my normal routine but for some reason I left my belt down stairs, as I rounded the corner at the top of the stairs on my way to get the said belt I tripped over my own two feet and even though I thought I had a solid grip on my gun some how it slipped out of my hand and started to tumble down the stairs. I froze for a second and pulled one of those dumb OH SH@# faces as my glock 29 loaded with double tap equalizer rounds came out of its holster and came down hard on one of the stairs, at this point I was able to think clear enough to hit the ground until I heard the gun come it a halt at the bottom... Needless to say I was wide awake the rest of the morning


These are the rounds I had loaded 2 shots per trigger pull....

DoubleTap Ammunition

Follow the link each round has 2 projectiles instead of 1 its a great home defense round.

From the website

Penetration. Expansion. Damage. Power. Controllable.
These are words used to describe the new 230gr. Equalizer from DoubleTap.

What about two shots in one?
A 135gr. JHP over a 95gr. lead ball @ 1040fps. This load is VERY accurate and
produces two holes on target. The ball hits high every time - less than one inch
from the JHP @ 10yds and 2.5" from the JHP @ 25yds

Caliber : 10mm

Bullet : 230gr. two projectiles: 135gr. JHP and 95gr. lead ball

Ballistics : 1040fps/ 553 ft./lbs. - Glock 20
Glock 29 - 1000fps
