no i mean like
yes
Youre telling me that plate can take all 36 of those rounds?
the tl;dr is the NIJ test is a single round of 30-06, tested in a couple different ways on different plates
w2c
Hesco just tests their plates separately and tells you how many rounds of a given caliber it takes to compromise the plate
normally you take self-certified plate tests with a grain of salt, but the plate has already passed the NIJ test so you have nothing to lose by believing hesco's in-house ratings
no
it's "or"
not "and"
oh ok
that's what they're rated to
it could probably take more
i wonder if hesco follows the NIJ back face deformation criteria for that test. i would assume so
typically composite plates will go a lot further than 6 rounds if you dont count BFD
I mean bfd or not if you get hit 6 times in a row im sure youre gonna have some internal bleeding
Or a wicked mad bruise
depends on the round
?
You'd have to be pretty close range for even a skilled operator to make 6 quick hits to your torso
I mean obviously the smaller rounds
I think the bigger concern would be them just closing the distance and putting one in your head at that point
its not even 30 06
its 30 06 AP
which fucking noone has
:^)
>he doesnt have any M2AP
oh really?
Seriously though
It's probably the most widely available AP round
Well the 3810 is rated for 3006 jsp
Anybody that does go out of their way to buy AP is probably going to buy M2AP
because it's relatively affordable and reks a lot of armor
M2ap is pretty dated tho
M993 and m995 is scary
its still the standard by which plates are tested
most people don't buy AP
i know a lot of guys who reload it into 308
