I know this is probably not true, but.... i heard hollow points can be used against you in court. Reason being that hollow points make the crime/self-defence premeditated murder.
dont know where i heard this i just did. it has to be wrong, just though i would throw that out there if anyone knows da truf!

probably, i also heard that if you modified your gun (night sights, custom slides, ect.) that they can use it against you and probably try to make you look like a gun crazy person in court.Originally Posted by ranger250x

THat would be false. Premeditation has nothing to do with using hollow points. Premeditation simply means you consciously made the decision to kill someone. In Georgia premeditation is instantaneous. For example, in the heat of the moment after walking in catching you wife riding some other dude you decide to kill them both, that's murder. Premeditation was evident the instant you decided to kill them, no matter how short of time period.
There are several defenses for murder, one being self defense.
"The 1911 is a collection of subsystems that must work together. Each part must be prepared and fit properly not only in and of itself, but also with regard to the other parts with which it must operate for the gun to function and appear as desired."
I agree with you, except for what's highlighted.
I know someone personally that killed his ex after walking in on her and another man, and he got charged (and convicted) of manslaughter and not murder. He served a couple of years and got out. Still walking around today I'd imagine.
But I do agree with you that merely having HP's in your gun doesn't make for premeditation of anything.
Wow, has to be more to it than that. If not thats one above average scumbag defense lawyer at work. Remember the case name? maybe we can look it up

Oh, I know this case very well. The guy who did it was my mother-in-laws live-in Fiance when I started dating my wife. I'm not going to mention his name, although I could since he's been convicted and it wouldn't be "here-say" but I'll leave it at that. The way the story was told to me, he walked in on his first wife and shot and killed her. If I'm not mistaken, he plead temporary insanity and obviously it worked somehow. He only served a few years and I know he was convicted of manslaughter and not murder.
The guy was an absolute tool. He was a jerk to the end, even towards me, although I didn't put up with it like the others. He and I almost got in a fist fight the day I moved my wife's mother out over water from the water hose. Bottomline is that he didn't get charged for murder, although he was a major tool.
