PPSS just launched their new line of Bullet Resistant Vests. The video below is of the CEO getting show with one of the early versions some years ago (around the 4:55 mark). Apparently it is thinner than the standard vests on the market.
Since I know I'll be getting emails about this, I asked PPSS to send me a panel or two in order to do a video/photos of the actual panel after being shot. Robert Kaiser sent along these photos of the impact area on his body:
So as you can see, it sucks to get shot while wearing a vest, but guess what sucks more? Having that bullet go through the vest and into you.
