Quoted:
A recent thread stirred a big debate. Seems a "Firearms Instructor" told a student that a loaf of bread would stop a bullet, especially if the bullet was a Jacketed Hollow Point.

It went through it like an ex-wife through your life savings.

Lessons Learned:

1. Sit down boys. I have some really big news for you. Everything you read on the Internet isn't always true.

2. Just because someone is a "Firearms Instructor", that doesn't mean that they aren't full of Bovine Scatology (BS).

3. Why do people repeat silly stuiff about firearms when it is so easy to shoot stuff and see what really happens? I just don't know.

4. Shooting bread is fun.

(Thanks to Tman for the photo help.)

Thanks Old_Painless for clearing this up...bread is concealment, not cover.

Are you folks done with that bread? Caus I'm fresh out.....

A classic - one of the most entertaining (if not exactly revelatory) yet!

Thanks, as always!

Thanks Painless for installing the Billboard of Truth along the Disinformation Highway!

Excuse me while I replace my bunker wall loaves with sandbags.

Did you eat what you shot?

You guys realize that when the revolution comes, we can head into Wal Mart and make ballistic body....that we can later make Texas Toast with.

I'm going to What-A-Burger

That's a good idea.

The bread is cheap enough that I am just going to feed the leftovers to the birds.

No fruitcake??

Shok

Fruitcake will stop a 105mm sabot penetrator.

My firearms instructor told me that pie stops bullets

I'm wondering if the firearm's instructor was referring to his wife's home made bread.

My ex tried making bread once. And I am positive it was bulletproof.

I knew O.P. would not let me down. I have printed off color copies of everything to send with my friend to prove this guy is full of "Bovine Scatology " as O.P. mentioned.

Now for all of you who said I shouldn't have repeated it because of how stupid it was. What would you have laughed at that was as funny as this???

One last thing......................
O.P. for President!

You used sliced bread!! I think unsliced bread has better bullet retension qualities.

You're killin me, OP.

Good stuff.

How bout the "bible in the pocket stopping a bullet" story from the wars? I can't picture you shooting a bible, tho...but I'm sure you can find a reasonable substitute.

I actually have a bible (pocket version ) from WW2. It has a metal cover on the front, inscribed " may it keep you safe from harm". I do NOT believe this will stop much more than MAYBE a sub sonic .22 LR. Luckily it was never field tested with a bullet, since it was carried by my grandfather.

I'm gonna second the idea of a Fruitcake O' Truth.

It's that time of year, you know, and that darn fruitcake keeps making the rounds...

As dense as some fruitcake is, it might actually stop a bullet.

Hmmm....how could you get a handgun round to stop in a loaf of bread? Supermarket shootout? Police recover a bullet from a loaf of bread that may have passed through other things first? Hmmm, I wonder.....

No offense intended here Tman.........

mr_wilson

As always, your comments are both insightful and insignificant.
You sir, have apparently never been shot with a Kimber .45 at close range. You comment on things about which you have no personal experience, and just repeat what you have heard on the internet again. When I hit the ground, I was moving in excess of 88 feet per second. Our photos are never staged, we report the situation as we find them.
Regards

Tman

OK, bread is out. As well as fruitcake (probably).

Can you use the "fortified snack bread" from an MRE as a trauma plate?

It is "fortified" after all.
