In this detailed video, PDN presents the defensive gun torture test, which we recommend giving to any handgun before you commit to carrying it and trusting your life to it. The purpose is to ensure the pistol’s reliability with the ammunition you intend to carry. Can the gun shoot 200 rounds of FMJ ammo and 50 rounds of hollow points with no malfunctions – no failures to feed or eject? The gun torture test is an administrative test of the weapon itself, not of your shooting skills.
