The infamous mall ninja, we've all seen em, people that buy the latest stuff off of amazon, eBay, what have you and build this monster of a rifle that looks like a plasma gun, throw some krylon on it and call it devgru.  

A recent post (it got moved) got me thinking, the younger generation is very impressionable, and with video games, like call of duty, battlefield, etc. and movies like zero dark 30, act of valor etc, they're getting the wrong idea when it comes to firearm safety and functional equipment.  They think they can dress up like a seal, go plink milk jugs on the weekends and be "prepared for the zombie apocalypse" or whatever the current fad is. There's no re-spawn in this big game called life.

My point guys is that it's dangerous, these kids nowadays are going to get themselves seriously hurt because they were shooting with their friends and running "tactics". I may be over reacting here a bit, but I think gun safety needs to be the one and only priority for these kids.

I guess if its not that it's the fact that the media targets mall ninjas as " gun owners of America" because they're "tactical and have evil black guns" and doesn't pay attention to the average joe so that kind of ticks me off. Anyways, I'm done venting

hello friends,

Last year I made the decision to trust my life on the street to Second Chance body armor. I got the level IIa because it stops the most rounds. plus I got the Trauma Plate for the front.

What scares me is that, although I can fit an extra trauma plate in the front, I cannot fit a second one in back. As of late I have taken to duct-taping a second trauma plate to the area of my back where the heart and vital organs are located. Then I put my vest on.

Here is the questions. The ducttape solution, although tactically sound, is hot and painful to remove. I would like to go to the single-plate solution in back. What I am worried about is repeated hits to that area with .308 ammunition. I have a high-risk security job and I fear that I would be the target for repeated long-distance shots to my back.

Are any of you aware of a thicker plate that could stop, say, .338 Lapua or something like that? Is there a better way to do the second plate?

BTW, I am, of course, usually carrying a pair of ceramic plates in my briefcase so that I can shield my head. My SO (we work as a team when necessary) has a similar accessory containing a breakdown NEF single-shot 300 WinMag with an 18" bbl. The plan is that I shield us with my body and “catch the rounds” while she assembles the NEF. I lay down covering fire with my 23 (Bar-Sto .357 Sig barrel) and she makes the long shots. I will then throw smoke grenades to obscure the area while continuing to lay covering fire. The problem, of course, is when I have to turn my back to run, and then the problem crops up.

Thanks!

Video games has brought more new shooters into the fold than any other one cultural influence.  It's a major driving force behind the current generation becoming gun enthusiasts, one you should be thankful exists instead of decrying it.
