Waterboy - 1 request and 1 suggestion:

Thanks for your time and information.

Request: Next time you are around the BORK folks please ask about the competition materials. From what I understand Ceradyne is a ceramic, some others seem to have a fabric. Is BORK the only one with a metal? Try to identify who's material is used in the test along side the BORK vest. It would be a real confidence builder to know who we have "shot down".

Suggestion: If you get the opportunity to have a shoot with the police, ask if they are willing to put one of their current vests up against the BORK vest. It is one thing to see what the BORK vest will do but perhaps something more to see what would happen to them if they were wearing their current vest and not the BORK vest with the same rounds! Let us know, if you can, who made their current vest. Maybe the chief will attend if one of his expensive vests is about to be destroyed!

waterboy41,

Did you examine the plate after shooting at it?
Was there any penetration?
What was the size of the plate?
How much did the plate weigh?
How thick was the plate?

You said there was a rep from another company there. What is the name of that company?

Regards,
Bob
