  1. Randlk is rite,he said about he can't think of a round that will go through a vest,here is one the 5.7x28 thats what it was made for,to go through body armor.


  2. No.  The .45acp is a slow moving giant of a slug and that's the one thing that's stopped most reliably.  Think in terms of trying to throw a basketball through a chain link fence.  

    You know, come to think of it, I can't think of a single round "less" likely to penetrate a ballistic vest.

  3. Question: 45acp vs armor vest or bullet prof vest.?

    Answer:  A public forum accessible by anyone is not a good place to answer questions concerning what can, or cannot defeat a ballistic vest.  Consider that police officers place their lives on the line day in and day and depend on their vests to afford them some measure of safety.  It is wrong to make this information available to any Tom, d**k or Harry simply out of idle curiosity.  If you have a legitimate reason for knowing what caliber(s) a certain level ballistic vest will defeat then please visit your nearest police supply store, state your reason and ask your question.

  4. No, a vest is designed to stop a 45acp

  5. No

    A .45 is a big slow bullet . It delivers a fair amount of energy on target..but doesn't penetrate extremely well. The type of bullets that defeat vests are usually small high velocity rounds.
