Product Overview
Meet the specialized performer in Norma's lineup - their 94-grain Frangible 9mm load. At first glance, that lightweight bullet might raise eyebrows, but there's serious engineering at work here. Screaming downrange at 1316 fps, these rounds actually hit harder than you'd expect, delivering 361 ft-lbs of energy on impact. But raw power isn't the point - this ammunition is built for a very specific purpose.
Training just got safer with these purpose-built frangible rounds. Forget about ricochet concerns or lead exposure - these projectiles disintegrate into powder when they hit hard surfaces. That means you can train at extremely close ranges with steel targets without worry. For shoot house scenarios or force-on-force training, there's simply no safer option. The complete absence of lead also means cleaner air in indoor ranges.
If you're serious about defensive training in urban environments, these rounds deserve a hard look. The frangible design virtually eliminates over-penetration risks, making them ideal for apartment dwellers or anyone concerned about what's beyond their target. They're particularly valuable for instructors running close-quarters drills or agencies needing to train in confined spaces. While they may cost more than standard FMJ rounds, the enhanced safety profile and specialized capabilities make them worth every penny for the right training scenarios.
- Disintegrates on impact with steel, virtually eliminating splash-back risk during target practice
- Exceptionally fast 1316 fps velocity creates flat trajectories while maintaining soft recoil due to lightweight design
- Zero-fragmentation property makes it perfect for close-quarters training environments
- Dramatically reduces wear on steel targets compared to traditional ball ammunition
- Specialized design commands a premium price point above standard range ammunition
- May require feed ramp polishing in some platforms for optimal reliability
- Less versatile than traditional ammunition due to purpose-specific construction
