Not a gun, but related

Remember to test your armor, folks! This one stopped a trio of 7.62x54r API rounds.

Is this ceramic? Who's the manufacturer?

Silicon carbide ceramic plus a ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene backer - I got them from a Chinese manufacturer called YF Protector

I'm looking to buy some plates myself. How much did it cost you?

EDIT: actually, if you have a link, just drop that. I don't want to keep pestering you lol

This is where I got them!

China Bulletproof Plate Offered by China Manufacturer - Yf Protector Co.,ltd https://yfprotector.m.manufacturer.globalsources.com/showroom_6008852435588/bulletproof-plate_54860-1.htm

Holy shit. Those are cheap. I thought you were blowing 300 bucks on that test lol

With shipping they came out to $85 bucks a pop

Awesome. I'll probably buy a set or two.

But how will it handle .338 Lapua?

Idk, I don't have a 338 Lapua to test with!

I dare you to say you’re in Idaho.

I'm thankfully not in Idaho, lol

Then we can’t test.
