mbd1: All of the shot up plates I have seen at the Bourque HQ had fibrous stuff on the front and the slugs seem to get caught in it in a way. The helmet didn't seem to have any, but the amazing part about that one was that I couldn't tell where it had been shot because the hole in the cloth covering was so small it couldn't really be seen unless you were looking for it, and then it was evident that the alloy was a little changed in shape... and that was the one hit with the .50 cal rounds. They had one Of the "raw" 1/4' plates and it was fascinating to hold because it was so cool to the touch.

Thanks KZ, J11, Mdb1 and the rest. I tried to write up the most descriptive and factual post as possible of what I observed. It was truly incredible to see first hand and a once in a lifetime experience.

Mdb1 thank you for answering my question! it was driving me crazy. The white stuff was "spectra". The spectra is the stuff that almost acts like a spider web or netting and catches the flat fragments if they do penetrate the kryron sheet on the inside of the plate.

Tonight, I will make sure to post my pictures... which include all verification of sizes and weights of the plates.

Go BORK!
