so I was trying to figure out if it would be able to stop 9mm auto in the case of an active shooter

???????????????????????????

😟

5.56 got changed shortly after the start of the iraq war when they noticed it couldn't handle car windows at checkpoints

Antiboom

@Den Röda Smurfen#6797

It is normal again

@TwinVickers couldn't handle car windows?

what?

556 nato was made to annoy the enemy

'cause car windows are angled so the bullets got diverted enough not to be accurate

7.63 was to kill

last I checked 5.56 had better penetration characteristics than 7.62x39

@Rapier83 not quite, but depends which 7.62 you're talking about

when shot at head or body level at a car window the first hits were at the drivers thighs

here you all want to just join voice chat?

7.62x39

not quite

lower velocity

hang on, lemme find energy numbers

i just left vc when smurfen started sexually harassing me

liar

you told me about your penis

yes, but hevier bulllet

and how it had wrinkles

@Rapier83 weight isn't everything

energy is part of it

a large part

would you rather be hit by 5.56 or a bowling ball with the same amount of energy?

like 9mm vs. 45.

M855 got amended to M855A1 after that car window report

and they had another one too, black tips, can't remember the designation

@Antiboom depends where i'm being hit

i'd rather not be hit

@Tero I'm not sure, lemme do some math really quick

gonna assume a bowling ball is 5 kilograms

762x39 kills

does it always?

as per iraqi vets. hajis survive 556 nato

@Durtle02 depends

antiboom is scaring me
