One Round, Two Jobs: DoubleTap Snake Shot Defense for Semi-Autos

Snake in the grass or threat in the street—DoubleTap’s Snake Shot Defense does both. Designed for semi-auto pistols (9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm), this innovative load combines a custom hollow point with #9 shot, offering a unique blend of penetration and spread for close-range defense.

What makes it different? Unlike traditional snake shot that only works in revolvers, this round cycles in your everyday carry pistol. Whether you’re clearing trails, patrolling your land, or heading into town, you won’t need to switch guns—or ammo.

We hit the gel, tested real-world spread, and proved this round is more than a gimmick. It’s legit defense, no matter the target.
