Foam Armor
« on: April 09, 2018, 03:29:23 PM »
1 inch stops 30 cal round.

Weighs 35% of current armor. 

More heat resistant. 

Heavier plate turns armor piercing rounds to dust.

Someone better develop phasers dayum soon.

If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

God created Man, Col. Sam Colt made him equal, John Moses Browning turned equality to perfection, Gaston Glock turned perfection into plastic fantastic junk.
