CLAIM: On Memorial Day 2022 President Biden claimed a 9mm bullet will “blow the lung out of the body.”
VERDICT: False.
The 9mm round is widely popular for concealed carry because it has effective stopping/penetrating power without significant recoil. The round’s stopping power is also attractive for law enforcement, but that power does not translate into blowing organs out of the body.
Breitbart News spoke to a Navy SEAL (ret.), who is a ballistics expert, and his response to Biden’s statement was, “No way.”
We spoke to a federal agent with 15 years experience in the field, and his response was “bullsh*t.”
We spoke to another individual who has been a federal agent for nearly 20 years and was a local police officer for years before that, and he responded to Biden’s statement by saying, “Not possible.”
We also spoke to a member of a U.S. Marshal fugitive recovery taskforce who has been on the job for 21 years. When we told him what Biden said he laughed out loud and said, “That’s not even in the realm of possibility.”
We asked, “Do you use a 9mm round?”
He said, “Yes, and it is a hollowpoint, but that simply creates a better wound channel, it does not blow lungs or other organs out.”
We told the fugitive recovery taskforce member that Biden also categorized 9mm under “high caliber weapons,” and he laughed again and said, “9mm is the smallest round we use.”

What’s he talking about nines for anyway?
In WWII, we took out both Hiroshima and Nagasaki with a single 9mm bullet.
If all we had were red Ryder BB guns President Retard would say those are too dangerous going to shoot your eye out hand it over 🤪
“What’s he talking about nines for anyway?”
Way back in time he was imagining the 9mm round to be extra-killy and preferred by criminals. Apparently little has changed. Part of Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals, focus on a particular topic and demonize it (paraphrasing).
A 9 mm might blow the lung out of a frog.
Biden is a laughing stock.
His mind’s gone. Next he’ll say a grenade will level a city.
Well… that’s actually the POINT.
Guns aren’t jewelry; they’re WEAPONS
Plugs knows this; he is perfectly happy with a staff of DOZENS around him - WITH GUNS at all times.
Apparently, WE little people should not have the luxury of defending ourselves…
The only thing blown out is Biden’s mind.
Is a 9mm a Glock or a assault weapon AR15? Asking for the media…
We are in trouble now; Joe is thinking.
We’re sure we’re not talking about Kamala here?
9mm is barely enough to fend off an attacker hopped up on meth.
Sleepy Joe is such a liar
Well good... Now the darned .9mm vs .45 argument is settled!!!
True that
I’ll keep my .45 cal auto government Colt. Thenkjewberrymudge!
By that same measure, the war in Europe was brought to a close with a single .32 ACP.
Biden is talking about it as an indirect way to demonize concealed carry.
