are hollow point round legal in the state of Massachusetts for self or home defense?
Also what round / firearm combo would you use for home defense & which combo for self defense?
I am A military vet, trained in firearm safety and shooting. but I know little of firearms outside of riffles. I have safety classes set up before I purchase my first firearm , I just would like to get some opinions from others more knowledgeable than I.
Thank you in advance.
I find no law restricting hollow point ammunition in Massachusetts, although armor pricing ammunition is illegal. They consider the Winchester Black Talon armor pricing, and it is a hollow point, but that law was made up be a bunch of dumb people that had no knowledge of firearms, but was only afraid of the name.
I recommend the .357 Mag., .40 or .45 ACP for personal defense, and the 12 gage pump shotgun loaded with 7.5 to 4 size bird shot rounds for home defense.

What is the best martial art for self defense for short people?
So I was wondering what a good martial art for self defense is for someone who is like 5'5". Like is there a martial art that can teach me how to defend myself against someone who's 6'8" 300 pounds. I know if someone got a hold of me that's that size they would break me in two.
Jujutsu and Judo. I'm a short dude as well, 5'7 and its actually alot better being short when fighting. Because your center of gravity is alot lower then that of someone who is 6'8 as you put it. In fighting terms this means, your harder to take down, and they're much easier to take down, if you know what your doing.
Jujutsu and Judo use an opponents strength and momentum against them. This isn't martial arts b*llshit, I have done it against 6'5, 300 pound monsters in my judo class.
If you do this and Muay Thai, for striking, you will be unstoppable.
Good luck
