I’ve heard of a lot of stories where cops will get into a shootout with criminals, and their flashlights end up stopping at least one bullet.
Has anyone else ever heard of such a thing happening?
Donut operator is a youtuber that’s talked about that many times.
If anyone has some old aluminum flashlights that don’t work anymore and you also have guns, maybe make a video testing how bullet proof they are?
I mean, obviously, high velocity AP rounds would destroy almost anything, but the common calibers for magazine feed pistols and even some common calibers for magazine feed rifles are stopped by the average tactical flashlight.
Actually, there are guns in the starwars that fire solid bullets instead of laser bolts. The Tuskens on tattooine use guns like that (the “sand people”)
A lot of bounty hunters and assassins hired to kill jedi will use them because the bullet will turn molten as the jedi tries to block it and ends up hitting them anyway.
In-universe guns that fire solid projectiles are called “slug throwers” and as you probably already know, guns that fire laser bolts are called “blasters”
