G2 Research Civic Duty .45 ACP 20-Round Box – Solid Copper Expanding Self-Defense Ammo

Engineered for superior terminal performance, the G2 Research Civic Duty .45 ACP ammunition redefines what a self-defense round can do. Built on G2 Research’s proven Trocar design — the same innovative geometry behind the legendary R.I.P. round — the Civic Duty takes a different approach: instead of fragmentation, it delivers extreme controlled expansion, making it purpose-built for personal protection in close-quarters environments.

Upon contact with a fluid medium, the solid copper, lead-free projectile expands up to 2.5 times its initial diameter, transferring 100% of its energy into the target. With 99.9% weight retention and a penetration depth of approximately 6–8 inches, the Civic Duty is optimized to stop threats effectively while minimizing the risk of over-penetration — a critical consideration in home defense and CQB scenarios.

Unlike traditional bonded hollow points that often over-penetrate and deliver inconsistent energy transfer, the Civic Duty’s copper hollow point (CHP) design is barrier-blind, defeating common obstacles with the same reliability as the R.I.P. round, while channeling all energy where it matters most.
