There are some advantages to FMJ ammo in carry. I do it frequently if not carrying Gold Dot HP handloads.I just can't imagine anyone with that level of proficiency, formal training or not, walking around with FMJ in his carry weapon.. Glad it worked out for him, but sounds like it took extra effort.
Could be as simple as that.I'm going to guess that the FMJ choice simply comes down to money. He sounds like a newish, casual gun owner and probably thought he was never going to actually use that thing, no point in wasting money on expensive hollow point stuff. I mean, he didn't even bother replacing the sights after they were damaged in a motorcycle accident, just filed 'em downA thrifty individual indeed. I bet he'll do things differently in the future though!
