I am certain that given a long enough barrel, the .25 ACP could punch through a car door. Its not the round, its the 2" barrels!
That I would like to see, especially semi auto.Believe it or not, several years ago, I found a real oddity in a gun shop: A semiauto rifle chambered in .25 ACP.
Unsure if it actually came from a factory, or if it had been assembled by a gunsmith satisfying a particularly eccentric customer, but there it was.
I thought the rule for carrying a .25 ACP was to put it in a strong tube-sock so that you can swing it like a bola, thereby extending your effective range beyond just beating the perp with it.

Was it a 1903 Winchester? I know of one that was extensively reworked from .22 Win Auto into .25acp. The bolt thrust profiles are similar and the gun worked with some ammo, but not others. The factory loads with faster powders burned so quick that the bullet lost velocity due to friction and usually wound up stuck a few inches from the end of the barrel. Other brands that used a little bit slower powders worked fine.

I heard you need to put at least two in the sock for an effective weapon.
Depends on the cleanliness of the sock.

Wow. Glad you shared that BBI, I think I remember you telling about the guy that got hit in the back of the head with one and head no idea he'd even been shot. Thought he'd been hit. Crazy stuff!
Nice!
Does anyone recall a .25 caliber thread on INGO where someone discussed a hooker getting 7 rounds in the head from her pimp and none penetrated the skull?!? They were stuck between scalp and skull. Some had done a few laps but no skull breakage.
