![]() I forgot all about them. I don't even see a thread about them , here on the forum. They were mentioned on a 15 y.o. real crime tv show, the other night Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | ||

That is roughly the last time I've seen or heard about them. Also consider that the crime depicted in the show may have happened 10 or more years before that. | |||

A pack of these was one of my earliest karmas. | |||

Still have some in .38 Spl. and .40 S&W from about 15-20 years ago. Got them following a move into multiple tenant housing; thinking those were the way to go being separated by only two pieces of drywall in spots between neighbors. | |||

I had a package of the 9mm a while ago. Never shot it. I remember reading about it in the gun rags back in the day. | |||

the 80s want their ammo back ! ![]() yes I remember those plus another version called Mag-Safe iirc. specifically mentioned 'by name' in the movie 'Manhunter'. The good guy played by William Peterson carried a .44 Special loaded with Glaser Safety Slugs. -----------------------------This message has been edited.

I still have some Winchester Silvertip 357 mag I bought in 1981 with a S&W model 19-5 I bought at Gibson’s in Wichita Falls TX. I sold the 19-5 to a member here in December last year. | |||

Same goes for Cor Bon ammo- another product from that era. | |||

Within the last two years, I finally fired the last handful of my GSS in .38spl. I briefly got into handguns in the mid-to-late ‘80’s. Started with revolvers, with the first being a S&W Model 60. I quickly added a succession of 357 magnum revolvers which transitioned to a P226. The hobby died after marrying but I hung onto the Model 60, the P226 and spare ammo. I resumed shooting in 2017. The 60 was soon traded for a P220 but I first fired off the old 38 ammo, including the Glasers. I had no issues with that ancient ammo. I still have 10 rounds of +30-yr-old 357 JHP (not Glaser slugs). Not sure that I’ll ever have the means to tidy up that little stash! | |||

Correction. I still have 12 rounds of 357 mag ammo left from my last purchase (likely 1987). 9 rounds of JHP (casing marked R + P) and 3 rounds of apparently blue-tipped GSS (casing marked Winchester)! Maybe I’ll eventually buy another 357 (perhaps lever action) and finally clean up the closet. | |||

I've got some in 38. There's a GI can of 38 in my "Long term storage/SHTF" stack, it has a little of everything. Except Glaser safety slugs. | |||

As one of the few NJ-legal carry rounds. (Not counting FMJ), I think the draconian Garden State has to be a steady market. West German P228 (first duty weapon) GOTM Nickel P229 | |||

I recall reading about the Glaser Safety bullets in a late 1970’s / early 1980’s American Rifleman! Best, Ian "Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action." - Ian Fleming | |||

Wait, what?![]() |
I've got some old, 25 year old frangible training ammo before it was cool ![]() Thread drift- since I've recovered newer Federal frangible projectiles from the ground that showed no deformation, I wonder how it would fare against human targets. I've shot old body armor panels and some of them fragment pretty dramatically. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||
