History
Based in Sturgis, South Dakota, Cor-Bon/Glaser Ammunition originated when Peter Pi Sr. started making handgun hunting ammo back in 1982 because the commonly available ammunition at that time was performing poorly. Pi noticed that holllow point ammunition would not expand and went about creating a line of ammunition with reliable expansion. Pi's philosophy in creating his line of ammunition can be summed up by this quote: "Velocity is the key to making hollowpoint bullets work. The added velocity assures that the hollowpoint will open up even if plugged with material. This reduces the risk of overpenetration and allows the action of the hollowpoint bullet to dump the available energy into the target."
Law Enforcement Training Center
In June 2011 Cor-bon opened the Law Enforcement Training Center (CLETC) in Sturgis, SD. The center offers several state of the art shooting ranges to better law enforcement officers in the skills of shooting.
