Huh, I certainly would have figured the 357 would have gone right through, like you guys. Demo ranch just did one where a guy sent in a ceramic tile wrapped in old seatbelts. It stopped quite a bit, might be worth a test with more calibers, or different wrapping.

According to a quick bit of research, they are using Remington 870s with beanbag rounds, S&W 10s in .38 Special, Federal 201-Z 37 and 38 mm beanbag and teargas rounds, and if crowds become uncontrollable, AR-15 "military assault rifles"

Critical Duty would have been Interesting because it's designed to go through barriers. Another great test, thanks!

I suspect the gaps between the plates help by providing some deformation resistance before hitting the next plate. I doubt a 1/2” plate would do as well, though it would make an interesting test.

Never thought that 357 would be stopped. Still it demos tatbit dumping its energy like its supposes too. I guess.

Remember to tell them that a rifle round is going to pass through with ease.

Very suprising. Should have tried 12 gauge #4, 00, slug. Lol

If the Dem's have their way We might need it.

Should have used 124gr. nato spec ammo as it is +p rated.
