There has never been anything that is "bullet proof".

Bullet-resistant is more appropriate.

The phonebook you have in your desk is "bullet resistant" to .25 ACP, but aim a .30-06 Springfield and it will go right through....thus the age old battle between the arrow and the knight.

They may “need” it, but do they have $12,000 to drop on a bulletproof polo shirt?

Tested against ballistic threats of ll and llA (equivalent to a .9MM or .357 Magnum),

Let's put a few characters in bold and a bigger font.

Not all that scared about the 0.9mm ammo. The .357 yes, but not to worried about under 1 mm ammo.

Wonder how it would fare against my 460 S&W Magnum.

Also let us not forget the good old .22 will get through the weave and hit it’s target. It may not kill right a way but it will hurt like heck & the bullet may bounce around inside the target doing lots of damage as well.
