Also, the overpenetration (and corresponding lack of bullet expansion) issue is what makes the FiveSeveN a terrible choice in an environment where people are not wearing armor - damn thing doesn’t do much permanent wound damage and just keeps going.
He would have done worse damage (and killed more people) if he’d had two run of the mill 9mms as IIRC nobody in the hall was wearing armor.

Thank God he had a Euro gun.
Its a good think he didn’t book two .45 ACP pistols with high capacity mags.

There is a ballistic tip round, which would tend to act like a hollow point. Don't know how well it works, but the bullet is from Hornady, so it probably works pretty well. We can be glad he likely did not have those.
