9mm Ammo
9mm Luger ammo has been a runaway favorite among concealed carriers and police agencies. In fact, 9x19 is one of the older handgun cartridges on the market with a history dating all the way back to the early 1900's.
The Luger round was used extensively by the Germans in the P08 and P38 handguns. In the U.S., the cartridge can be considered something of a sleeper hit in its early years, only achieving major popularity in the 1980's with the rise of CCW and semiautomatic pistols.
The 9mm Luger ammo you'll find for sale here at Widener's typically features 115, 124, or 147 grain bullets. Heavier bullets offer strong penetration but lower muzzle velocities, with the 147 grain version falling into the subsonic range. 115 or 124 grain jacketed hollow points from Speer, Federal, Winchester, and many other manufacturers produce a muzzle velocity of around 1,100 feet per second and produce relatively mild recoil while still delivering excellent terminal performance. If you like to shoot centerfire ammo in high volumes, the low cost and low recoil of the 9mm makes it your best bet! Generally, you can expect rounds loaded with full metal jacket bullets to be cheaper than the hollow point defensive counterparts with your best buy coming in bulk.
There have been many handguns chambered for the 9mm Luger, but the most popular for concealed carry today are typically compact pistols like the SIG P938, Glock 43, S&W M&P Shield, Springfield XDs, Ruger LC9, and Kahr CW9. Be sure to take a look at our in-stock 9mm ammo below.

Black Hills 9mm 124 Grain JHP - 20 Rounds
$19.85Manufacturer Black Hills Ammunition Condition New Bullet Weight 124 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU D9N320 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 612710127764 Cost Per Round 99.2¢ per round These standard pressure 9mm Luger rounds from Black Hills are a great choice for concealed carry or home defense with a suppressed pistol. As part of their red box line, Black Hills loads these rounds in factory-new brass casings that are reloadable and equipped with non-corrosive Boxer primers. The brass casing is home to clean-burning powder and a 124-grain jacketed hollow point (JHP) from Hornady's XTP design. XTP hollow points are known to expand reliably at a wide array of impact distances, causing distinct damage by driving energy into the body instead of letting the bullet fly straight through a target.
124 grains is a common weight for the 9mm caliber, especially in NATO loadings, due to its balance between manageable recoil, flat flight path, and final terminal momentum. These rounds are loaded to produce a muzzle velocity of 1,150 feet-per-second; this is a subsonic speed that pairs well with silencers since it won't produce a supersonic crack. Black Hills ammunition has a great reputation among serious competitors, military units, and even firearms manufacturers that use their products to test finished guns for accuracy.

Nosler Match Grade 9mm 147 Grain JHP – 20 Rounds
$19.85Manufacturer Nosler Ammunition Condition New Bullet Weight 147 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type match or precision shooting, plinking at the range Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 51290 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 054041512909 Cost Per Round 99.2¢ per round Nosler offers their Match Grade line of ammunition to pistol and carbine owners who love grouping shots tighter than a hungry dog’s lips on a soup bone. This 9mm ammo is also great if you believe accuracy matters for self-defense (and it certainly does).
This round’s bullet is heavy at 147 grains. It gets an accordingly slow muzzle velocity, but it retains comparably more momentum as it beelines downrange. The bullet’s uniform jacket walls and form-fitted lead core both contribute to its flat trajectory, as does its symmetrical meplat. The bullet’s tip also wears radiating notches that facilitate consistent terminal expansion.
No other component in this cartridge is overlooked, either. Nosler headstamps its high quality brass case because they’re proud of it, and gives it a match grade primer so it can serve up the same ballistics as all of its brothers. Every round in this box was assembled on dedicated machinery and even came from the same lot as one another! -

The Flex Tip has a polymer nose inserted in the expansion cavity to provide more reliable feeding and better terminal ballistics.

This 9mm Critical Defense round is designed to feed, chamber and extract like clockwork, as well as deliver consistent recoil and ballistic performance with every trigger pull. The round’s sensitive primer reliably ignites its clean burning propellant, which is specially formulated to limit muzzle flash that would have impacted your night vision.
You can count on this round’s bullet to see you through a perilous encounter as well. It’s lightweight at only 115 grains, so recoil won’t throw your aim off too much. It’s also an FTX, which has a pliant polymer tip that will prevent the bullet’s hollow point nose cavity from choking on fabric before it can expand. The same tip also initiates violent expansion during penetration, so you’ll have the stopping power it takes to level threats fast.

Hornady Critical Defense Lite 9mm 100 Grain FTX – 250 Rounds
$274.85Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 100 Grain Bullet Type Flex-Tip-Technology (FTX) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 250 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90240 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255902409 Cost Per Round $1.1 per round True to its name, this 9mm cartridge from Hornady’s Critical Defense Lite label sports a lightweight 100 grain projectile. This reduces recoil, a feature of great value to those who carry a compact firearm for personal protection and would like to lessen the recoil they’re going to incur.
This round’s FTX projectile is wholly up to the task of personal protection. It’s a hollow point bullet with soft, pink polymer inside of its nose cavity that prevents clogging during penetration and afterward facilitates reliable, intensely harmful expansion. The “Flex Tip” is pink because Hornady donates part of the proceeds they make from their Critical Defense Lite line of ammo to breast cancer research!
Danger could strike at any moment, but it’s worst when it strikes in the dark. That’s why this round’s propellant charge is formulated to generate very little light when ignited -- with reduced muzzle flash, your first shot in the dark won’t be the last you’re capable of aiming properly!
Hornady’s top shelf brass cases, noncorrosive Boxer primers and low-fouling propellant are all engineered with outstanding reliability in mind. The Nebraskan outfit’s quality assurance team is very exacting, so you can take heart that this case of ammo contains 250 of the best solutions for personal protection with a smaller pistol on the market! -
Hornady Critical Duty 9mm +P 124 Grain JHP – 250 Rounds
$279.85Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 124 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 250 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90216 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255902164 Cost Per Round $1.12 per round Why take any chances on your everyday carry weapon’s ammunition when you can order Hornady Critical Duty 9mm +P ammo instead? This law enforcement grade ammo is loaded to extremely high standards for quality, performance and reliability.
This cartridge is outfitted with Hornady’s own FlexLock bullet. The 124 grain JHP features a Flex Tip, which is essentially a polymer plug that keeps the nose cavity unobstructed by debris in the event that the FlexLock has to penetrate a barrier before reaching its target. The FlexLock is even better equipped to defeat barriers thanks to its InterLock band, which keeps its jacket and high-antimony lead core from separating from one another. As the FlexLock retains all the weight it needs to penetrate its target deeply, its Flex Tip presses into its nose cavity to yield wide terminal expansion. The FlexLock even boasts great accuracy, especially as its cannelure prevents setback in the case.
Critical Duty cartridges feature nickel-plated brass cases to reduce friction as a semi-auto feeds and ejects. In addition to promoting smoother functionality, this ammo’s nickel-plated cases protect it against corrosion and make it more visible in the dark.
This is +P ammunition. Its higher chamber pressure gives it more recoil, a flatter trajectory and more energy on impact. Please ensure your firearm is rated for +P before firing this ammo in it. -
Hornady Critical Defense Lite 9mm 100 Grain FTX – 25 Rounds
$28.85Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 100 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90240 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 090255902402 Cost Per Round $1.15 per round If you ever have to defend your own life, you’ll have plenty to worry about without adding heavy recoil to the list. Hornady Critical Defense Lite series 9mm ammunition is engineered to produce extremely light recoil – optimal if your physique falls on the smaller end of the spectrum, or you prefer a subcompact handgun for personal protection.
This round doesn’t use strange tricks to produce significantly lighter felt recoil. You see, recoil energy is determined by four factors: firearm weight, bullet weight, propellant weight and muzzle velocity. This round’s 1,125 fps muzzle velocity out of a 4” barrel is normal for a 115 grain projectile. But because its bullet weighs only 100 grains, it simply can’t kick the shooter with very much recoil!
The bullet is Hornady’s own FTX. It is a jacketed hollow point, with a skived jacket that splits apart to ensure reliable terminal expansion. The FTX’s nose cavity contains a polymer cylinder that prevents fabric from obstructing it and compromising its ability to expand within soft tissue. (The polymer is bubblegum pink because Hornady donates a portion of their proceeds from this ammo to breast cancer research!)
Hornady loads this ammo in Nebraska with superb brass cases and Boxer primers, as well as low-flash propellant that won’t instantly blind you should you have to open fire in a dark setting.Customer Reviews

Hornady Critical Duty 9mm 135 Grain FlexLock JHP – 250 Rounds

Critical Duty rounds fire FlexLock bullets with a soft polymer insert that keeps material from clogging the hollow point and impairing the projectile's performance. The FlexLock also features the Interlock band to keep the core and jacket tightly bound together to prevent any risk of separation.
Each cartridge in this case of 250 (ideal for training) fires a heavy 135 grain version of the FlexLock at a muzzle velocity of 1,010 feet per second. This is a standard pressure load that will perform well in compact pistols without generating too much felt recoil.
Critical Duty ammunition is loaded in Grand Island, Nebraska using non-corrosive Boxer primers and brass cases which are nickel plated for additional durability over long periods of carry.Customer Reviews

Speer Gold Dot G2 9mm 147 Grain JHP – 200 Rounds
$264.85Manufacturer Speer Condition New Bullet Weight 147 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 24226 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No Cost Per Round $1.32 per round This 9mm cartridge by Speer showcases the powerful terminal performance of the Gold Dot G2 projectile. The G2’s nose cavity is relatively shallow, but it holds a bit of high-performance elastomer. When the bullet connects with its target that rubbery substance will force itself down deep within the pressure formed core’s internal fissures, forcing them apart to create extremely uniform expansion.
The G2 bullet carries over the classic Gold Dot’s electrochemically fused jacket. Nigh inseparable from its core, the G2’s jacket ensures deep penetration so that its expansion can do exceptional damage to vitals. So tough a jacket further lets the G2 retain essentially all of its weight even if it must pass through sheet metal before connecting with a threat!
Speer gave this round a nickel plated brass casing, so you needn’t worry so much about salt and other adverse elements affecting its more sensitive components. Nickel’s reduced friction promotes smooth cycling in a semi-automatic as well, making this a dependable cartridge indeed! -

This is a 9mm round that’s designed to do one thing and one thing only -- flatten bad guys. Its 147 grain bullet does this in a couple of ways. First, its core and jacket are essentially inseparable from one another because the latter was formed electrochemically, effectively bonding it. The G2 bullet thus dispenses with almost none of its weight for having had to pass through barriers such as steel and drywall on its way toward its destination. Second, this bullet’s core has got internal fissures that direct how expansion is going to take place. Those fissures are forced apart by the elastomer in the G2’s nose cavity during penetration, so they get to do their job especially well. This cartridge further features a nickel plated brass casing that’s going to love zipping through your semi-automatic pistol, and a highly sensitive primer as well. -
Underwood 9mm 90 Grain Xtreme Defender – 20 Rounds
$27.85Manufacturer Underwood Condition New Bullet Weight 90 Grain Bullet Type Solid Copper Use Type home defense Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 815 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 816874020125 Cost Per Round $1.39 per round A bullet doesn’t need to expand in order to produce a much wider wound channel than its original diameter alone could account for. This 9mm ammunition by Underwood proves it!
This round features the 90 grain Xtreme Defender projectile. It is very light because it is lead-free, and its monolithic copper design at once makes it clean-shooting, balanced and extremely resilient. The Xtreme Defender punches through barriers easily, so it can reliably reach threats that are shielded by thick clothing, wallboard or even auto glass.
The Xtreme Defender lacks a nose cavity. Its nose profile makes it easier for a semi-automatic to feed without jamming, and it is also immune to becoming plugged up with debris. The monolithic bullet has multiple radial flutes machined around its tip. These force any fluid which the bullet comes into contact with to rapidly jet outward, creating a wide and instantaneous wound cavity that will quickly neutralize even the most determined threat. The Xtreme Defender consistently penetrates to depths as great as 18”, thus assuring a clean break to the vitals.
Underwood loads this 9mm ammo with nickel-plated brass cases for superior corrosion resistance and more reliable cycling through a semi-auto. They also load low-flash propellant that will preserve your night vision – very helpful in case you ever have to defend yourself in the dark. -

Federal Personal Defense 9mm 147 Grain HST JHP – 200 Rounds
$289.85Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight 147 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU P9HST2S Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 50004544621078 Cost Per Round $1.45 per round This 9mm cartridge from Federal’s Personal Defense line of ammunition is brimming with features that make it an absolutely ideal solution for self-defense. Its 147 grain HST projectile has a cannelure to mechanically lock its jacket and core together, enabling it to retain nearly all of its weight as it bores through a soft target. The cutting petals it produces during penetration will completely incapacitate a threat, and it’s designed to penetrate to an efficacious depth without dangerously overpenetrating. Finally, the HST’s nose cavity resists clogging with fabric on impact so that it can expand reliably.
This cartridge feeds with certainty in a semi-automatic firearm thanks both to its specially designed nose profile and its brass casing’s smooth nickel plating. That plating further protects this round from corroding and becoming useless as the result. Federal’s sensitive primer ensures proper ignition with every pull of the trigger, and their propellant predictably ignites to produce a consistent 1,000 fps muzzle velocity. -

Make no mistake: this is the same stuff Federal sells to law enforcement agencies. Only the packaging is different!
This cartridge’s 124 grain jacketed hollow point is Federal’s own HST. The HST features a hollow point nose cavity that is designed to initiate expansion following penetration of several different barriers. The HST reliably expands in diameter by 50% after passing through tough safety glass! And because of its jacket (not bonded, but intensely tough nevertheless), the HST is capable of retaining over 90% of its weight after penetrating heavy fabric, sheet steel, drywall and plywood alike.
Each Personal Defense HST cartridge features a high-quality reloadable brass case with a high-performance primer and nickel plating to promote more reliable functionality in a semi-automatic. This ammo’s propellant is formulated to emit a duller muzzle flash – optimal if you wish to avoid becoming blinded by your own gunfire.
This is overpressure ammunition. Its 1,200 fps muzzle velocity (which was recorded with a 4” test barrel) ensures ~350 ft lbs of striking energy at 25 yards, but also produces too much chamber pressure for antique handguns to safely contain. Make certain your pistol is rated for +P before ordering this ammo! -

That’s why Federal offers this round from their Personal Defense line of ammunition with a 147 grain HST projectile. The HST’s ability to deliver catastrophic terminal performance won’t be hindered by common barriers -- its special nose cavity is designed to prevent itself from becoming clogged up. This bullet expands to extend six sharp petals as it tunnels through its target, and it penetrates to the ideal depth for neutralizing a human-sized target while retaining nearly 100 percent of its weight.
This round’s factory fresh casing is made of brass, and thus perfect for handloading. The casing’s nickel plating poses multiple benefits to its performance: It promotes smooth feeding in a semi-automatic weapon, resists corrosion when confronted with moisture, and makes an on the fly chamber check easier to perform in the dark.Customer Reviews

But when it comes to the most important bullet you own -- the one that could save your life -- choose Speer’s technological marvel, the Gold Dot.
This 9mm +P cartridge features a 124 grain bullet with an electrochemically bonded core and jacket. It makes component separation a practically moot concept, so you’re assured the weight retention needed to reach your threat’s vitals. The Gold Dot’s uniformly distributed jacket further grants it exceptional accuracy, and Speer’s method for forming the bullet’s nose cavity ensures a highly consistent width and rate of expansion.
This cartridge’s nickel plated casing is not only easier to spy in the chamber during a low light chamber check, but also resists corrosion and feeds exceptionally easily in a semi-automatic. Clean burning propellant and CCI’s excellent primer makes the round even more dependable during a fight.

$30.85Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight 124 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU P9HST3S Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 604544657456 Cost Per Round $1.54 per round New firearm owners often ask us to recommend the best ammunition for self-defense. We typically suggest a few – but when we have Federal Premium’s Personal Defense HST in stock, it always tops our list. This is exactly the same 9mm +P ammunition Federal supplies to law enforcement agencies; only its packaging is different.
This 9mm +P cartridge’s 124 grain jacketed hollow point bullet is designed to feed smoothly and exhibit superior accuracy, but that’s only the start of what makes it great for personal defense. Its nose cavity is engineered to resist getting blocked up with debris on impact. Its jacket and core are highly resilient, and resist fragmenting apart following high-velocity impact. That ensures the bullet remains able to penetrate deeply enough to effectively neutralize a threat.
As the JHP encounters resistance from soft tissue, it quickly expands. When it plunges into ballistic gelatin, it increases from its original 0.355” diameter to 0.870”; if the bullet must penetrate multiple layers of fabric before entering the gelatin, it still expands to a diameter of 0.610”.
This ammo is loaded in Minnesota with Federal’s highest-quality primers and propellant, as well as corrosion resistant and smooth-cycling nickel-plated brass cases. This is overpressure ammunition. Its heightened chamber pressure will produce a flatter trajectory and inflict greater damage to the target, but it will also damage a firearm that is not rated for +P. Please consult your firearm’s manual or manufacturer before ordering, or ask your friendly expert at Widener’s! -
