    somewhat off topic, BUT some of the projectiles used are lead, and it IS interesting reading.

    How about "don't shoot Lexan with a shotgun at 25 yards" ?

    "don't shoot hard metal objects with FMJ ammo from 25 feet" (that drew blood...and close to henry and the twins too, could have been a lethal mistake)

    That box of truth was very interesting reading indeed..and an eye opener. I've done alot of test with the AR 15 and 193 ball as my best friend hates the M16 and the 5.56 round. He tried to run it down as much as possible and the tests he made me do with it shut him up pretty good.

    Very good reading, very good testing, good images, and each set of tests ends with "Lessons Learned." Nice work. I liked that lock test!
