There are sooooo many variables to consider... range, barrel length, muzzle velocity, caliber, wind shear, load, ammo type - jacketed/non-jacketed, etc. etc. Even a .22, in the right circumstances, can put a hole thru bone... so unless your skin and flesh is harder than bone, I wouldn't suggest trying it. And if you're thinking of trying BB guns, DON'T. BB pellets at close range can be just as lethal. Rubber pellets used by prison guards and riot police have been known to kill. It doesn't have to penetrate flesh to cause damage. As for armour piercing, dum dums, and hollow points... let's not even go there. The only way your Iron Shirt will work is if I THROW the bullets at you.

Every weapon I have, carry, or shoot will blow a hole completely through you... and unless you're depending on kevlar body armor, I wouldn't advise being on the wrong side of the gun at any point. Sure, there are anomolies of anything like bullets hitting the bone and skimming under the skin, but I don't think I'd depend on that kind of luck against firearms. I shoot modern firearms with hot loads which are matched for both accuracy and self-defense, and I practice regularly at the range in the combat mode. You'd have to be luckier than a $hithouse rat to survive with a kevlar vest much less without one. Standard "combat" shooting puts two in the chest, two in the head. It's a little tough to train against that... JMHO...

I was completely kidding about the insane part hence the smiley, and I definitely didn't say those roudns will bounce of flesh, just that the more musculature the slow the bullet will travel though it WILL NOT be slowed much.

Completely understood... that's why I phrased things like I did in the reply... i.e., "neat little round holes"... You have to be careful when you post things like that, because there are people who have the superman complex and are stupid enough to try it. Wendy Bagwell used to tell people that when he was a kid, somebody gave him a superman cape, and he believed that he could fly... so he jumped off the garage and broke his leg. Nobody told him that he had to have the pants and body shirt to match...

OK this is a serious question, just out of curiosity - is it actually possible to be able to resist a shot from the weakest gun available these days through Iron Vest training?
I read in 'ripleys believe it or not' that a guy who worked out heaps got shot, and the bullet didn't even penetrate his skin!
Please Read About The Boxer Rebellion! Many CMA Students Then Believed Iron-Shirt Training Would Render Bullets From Causing Harm Only To Be Shot Down In Droves By Western Forces.
