my dad had a 9mm firearm but he has the normal hollow points bullets, the ones that don't splinter. Anyways, my anxiety is telling me if I pull the trigger the bullet will get stuck halfway or something. Do you think it could? I plan to aim behind the ear. What are the chances I press the firearm against my skull behind the ear, fire, and the bullet get stuck halfway??

Other people will also tell you that you need to aim through the mouth to the brain stem.

Caliber means nothing. That terminology is very messy and often uses words that had meaning in the last century. Saying I have a 9mm pistol doesn't indicate anything specific. I am learning these things by attending training places. And if the enormous confusion on the subject wasn't enough, the caliber changes enormously from Europe to the United States.Det samme navnet har en helt annen betydning.

Uh so what are you saying? Should I be nervous or you think I will be successful

I'm not really sure about the bullet getting stuck but there have been studies done on if a certain caliber can defeat the skull. If you're curious it's something like someone shot in the head with a low caliber nine millimeter round has about a 10% chance of surviving the incident. If a second shot happens it drops to well below single digits. Shooting yourself And making contact with the skull there's a chance the skull isn't defeated or the bullet will skid along The top of your skull and ricochet off it not delivering its full force

Sorry off topic post, but I got really interested when you ended your post in Norwegian. Do you come from my neighbor country?
