I've been told you are at greater risk of prosecution if you use FMJ in a justified SD shooting. The advice giver was not a qualified expert.

IMHO, anything you can legally buy should be safe for SD use. Otherwise people who used their rifle instead of their handgun for SD would be getting prosecuted for excessive force, etc.

Any legal experts or people with first hand experience?
