Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel 9mm +P 124gr HP

The Gold Dot Advantage

Speer Gold Dot ammunition represents the gold standard in personal protection ammunition. Originally developed for law enforcement, Gold Dot delivers the same proven performance to civilian shooters who demand reliability when it matters most.

Short Barrel Engineering

This Short Barrel load is specifically designed for compact and sub-compact handguns. It functions reliably in barrels as short as 1.9 inches while maintaining consistent expansion and penetration. The reduced recoil impulse makes follow-up shots faster and more accurate, particularly important in defensive situations.

Bonded Construction

Each Gold Dot bullet features Speer's proprietary Uni-Cor bonding process, which fuses the jacket to the core at the molecular level during initial bullet construction. This virtually eliminates core-jacket separation and ensures the bullet performs as designed through barriers and at varying distances.

Precision Hollow Point Design

The hollow point cavity is engineered through a patented two-stage formation process:

• First stage establishes maximum expansion potential
• Second stage controls the rate of expansion for consistent performance

This meticulous engineering ensures each round expands reliably while maintaining adequate penetration for personal defense.

FBI Protocol Testing

Gold Dot ammunition exceeds the stringent testing protocols developed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for service-class handgun cartridges, evaluating penetration, expansion, and retained weight in both bare gelatin and barrier-protected gelatin.
