    I would also be willing to donate milk jugs. I am single so I do not have a lot. Also if you need any help let me know. I would be willing to help with testing and such.

    You can put out calls for various kinds of ammo periodically, like 9mm FMJ, 40cal HP, etc. You should be able to gather a nice variety rather quickly for the tests. Looks great!

    My half of the gear is nearly loaded up. Just the usual home defense stuff. Results will correspond to what many here have. LMW's has the shotty and other guns.

    COOL!!!
    I wonder if we could do what Gen Julian Hatcher did and get the Prison System to donate cadavers for testing. :whistle:

    Whoa! I thought finding milk jugs was a problem...
    I don't think I'm quite ready for that. Let's let Joshua and me deal with sheet rock and 2x4s!

    I've seen some shows where they shoot a pig to simulate flesh. My problem is that if I had a whole pig, I would find a spit and roast it rather than shoot it.:D Then we could have the first annual INGO steel shoot and pig roast! :ingo: [On second thought, Techres wouldn't go for that either......:):]

    I have a Jewish friend who eats shrimp.
    He calls it "Chicken of the Sea." :D

    Yeah, I often assume someone is Seventh Day Adventist when the refuse pork for that same reason! ;)

    I promise much video footage, LMW's will surely have forms that will result in graphs that are really informative, and the melons & water will result in his range becoming a garden again.

    This is the test day. Much to learn, both about the process itself and the actual test results. This is gonna be a deal that is more than once, I am sure.

    Wonder if we have some cheap red drink mix to make those just blow in a more colorful fashion.

    I would be interested in seeing how effective stereotypical places to seek cover are. Typical things you find in your house like different types of bath tubs, and tile+sub floor materials that you would find on the floor or as shower walls, file cabinets, refridgerators... It might just change what you decide to jump behind, or what you decide to throw against a door or wall to decrease penetration. I wouldn't be surprised either way to find out whether metal horizontal file cabinets full of papers turn out to be significant bullet barriers or false security.

    Wow Pop, you really out-did yourself on that box! lol

    The experiment that I would like to see is "AR-15 vs. 12ga penetration (inside a home)".
