The Box O' Truth #34 - Bullet Proof Wallboard - Page 1

I recently got a message from my friend Pighelmet. He said that he had a piece of bullet-proof material and would I like to shoot it.

Whadda you think?

When I got it from the Brown Truck O' Happiness, I took a look at it. It was about 14 inches square and a little over 1/4 inch thick. I sent him a message and asked for all the details he had.

"What you have there Don is a true piece of "Ballistic Nylon". That is the same material that is sandwiched into interior walls for sensitive areas. They sometimes add two or three sheets of that together to increase the bullet resistance. Two of those together I was told, equal Level V protection. That is what I was told.

I don't know if that particular piece was made by Dow, but I suspect that it was. They used a special "wet" saw to cut it into shape, and it makes and awful goop that stinks. I had to blast that one with water at the car wash to get the goop off. That's about all I know about the stuff.

Be safe, I don't know how flexible that stuff is, and I would really hate to see a bullet bounce back at you guys."

Well, that makes 3 of us.

Let's see what we can see.
