    Jk....what prompted your study? You armorizing the ambulance?
    Well, the kid bought a retired barf truck from the city. In the process of taking it apart for aluminum scrap value, the three pieces of sheeting that separated the compartments in the drunk tank on wheels were saved. Being the resourceful souls that we are, we decided to shoot at them and see what happened. Then, I reported on it.

    what prompted your study?

    Actually, many quickie marts/gas stations have used inch thick acrylic glass for a long time. Plasti-Craft that used to be down on Bayaud and Alameda had a sample of plastic that supposedly was riddled with 357 mag rounds at point blank range, and none had gotten through. We were just curious about how the 3/8th would do. It actually might be a little thicker than that, never put a micrometer on it.

    I still want you to hook me up with an ambulance!! BTW hope the bachelor life is getting better. We gotta meet up for breakfast or something soon.

    That goes for the rest of you skanky hookers too. We should do a breakfast soon!

    I'm guessing it was something like plexiglas or lexan?
