Tri-Cor .38 High Speed Video
Constitution Arms have published a high speed video showing their Tri-Cor .38 Special round being fired in gel. The Tri-Cor is loaded with three separate bullets stacked on top of each other, with a total weight of 158 grain. The individual projectiles separate in flight.
The Tri-Cor is very expensive. Constitution Arms are selling them in clamshell packaging containing six rounds for $29 + tax + shipping. This makes practice at the range very expensive.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

"Pardon my ignorance, but is this just a manlier Glaser, that will go through glass/sheetrock?"
Glasers will easily go through glass or sheetrock. Don't know who told you otherwise, but that's asinine. You can put a BB through a wall with a slingshot, much less a 100 plus grain projectile firing at over 1000 fps.
This round doesn't look like it has adequate penetration, win which case 3 round channels isn't going to do you much good.
I'm with Jim. Penetration looks anemic, much like a Glaser that hasn't gone through sheetrock.
