"Even in a gunfight, we'd just get our asses kicked by the simplest rifles."

Russian soldiers posted a video testing the "unparalleled" bulletproof vest "Module-Monolith," produced by JSC "Special Materials Research Institute" (St. Petersburg). During the experiment, all five bullets penetrated the armor plate completely. The soldiers expressed their dissatisfaction with the quality of the heavy and useless gear: "Just f*cking great. Thank you, Ministry of Defense."

If you're gonna get shot by something that can penetrate your armor you'd rather not want armor because it'll probably ricochet than exit out the back and when you take it off all your guts fall out. FMJ winds up mushrooming out like a hollow point. You're ever so slightly more fucked. 416 Barrett is like your ring finger, now clench it into a ball and imagine that thing making a 2nd or 3rd pass inside you

Bold of you to assume they get back plates.
