Do the riot shields used by the National Guard deflect bullets like in my vidya games, or are they just for like bottles and stuff?
Those are made of plexiglass.
>>64204976So that's a no? What would happen if someone did shoot at them? Or what would happen if they shot first?
>>64204945Mostly rocks, bottles and random crap.Gets bigger than that, kinda end up blocking it with your face
>>64204945The glass/plastic ones in your pic are only effective against rocks and other blunt objects. The might be able to stop low velocity shrapnel from a bomb in certain circumstances but a bullet will straight-up shatter them and kill the user.There are shields that will stop bullets, but they're made from solid steel. pic related.
>>64204977From what i know for sheilds youd want something like this that again is rated around the same level of Ar500 plates.For the riot shields.>Projectile score a clean it snd goes trough it>is deflected and misses(real glass does this but for like or rwo bullets)>Add spalling, so if they dont have body armor its even worseIf someoje shoots at them, they ll probably shoot back.or scatter.For rioters usualy theyll scatter, some will just push trough though.
>>64204945The shields in your Vidya are ballistic shields, not riot shields
>>64204945That plexi isn't thick enough to stop any but the most anemic bullets.
>>64204994are they heavy?
>>64204945Pistol rated shields look like this. Riot shields are really only good for clubs and molotovs.
>>64205021Forgot pic
>>64205020Yes
>riot shields>no riot swords
>>64204998Why are their guns all painted red?
>>64205057makes the bullets go faster
>>64204998>>64205012Is the glass part also rated to stop bullets or will it just go straight through it?
>>64205072just shoot their hands
>>64204993why are indog chimping out?
>>64204993Always surprises me how violent of a place Indonesia is given how little it gets in the news.
>>64205047There’s an old photo of I believe Brazilian riot police cavalry charging with a saber but I sadly cannot find it.
>>64205088wrong level
>>64205072That's usually bulletproof glass, which needs to be much heavier than steel to match the bullet resistance so it's kept small and may not stand up to the same threats as the rest of the shield
>>64205126FSB near the end of the mission use riot shields thought. tactic was to throw a flashbang behind them and then fire an M203 into the middle of their line as they were disoriented
>>64205253Oh yeah I forgot about that. The prison break stands out to me more because I always used the riot shield extensively on that level.
>>64204977>wat wul heppen if shooot plexerglass???????
>>64205301rude!
>>64205057Training weapons. Don't ask about the pink gun.
>>64204945No. Most standard police-issue shields (according to my knowledge) are made of Perspex or plastic, and can only really protect you from firebombs/molotovs, knives and bats or clubs. A ballistic shield is usually issued to military personnel in the SF or police in SWAT, and is more commonly designed to stop pistol/rifle rounds and explosions in some cases.Hope this helps :)
>>64205057Protects them from little Green army men. They can also be issued cap guns.
>>64204993Those rocks to the back of the dome gotta be doing some major damage
>>64204993>>64205121WTF it's true, I didn't even know its was all on fire. Kek truly shows how nobody gives a fuck about yet another mudslime chimpout
>>64205731fun fact: Jimmy Carter funded Indonesia's genocide in East Timor
>>64204945Only one way to find out.
>>64205321They're polycarbonate usually, but plexiglass (PMMA) can be used
>>64204977Holy shit you're retarded lol
>>64204945Sounds like some IRL testing is in order the next time you see one.
>>64205762What the fuck I love Jimmy Carter now.
>>64205896Genocide is gay shit for edgelord virgins. Very thirdie coded as well.
>>64205898Real genocide hasn't been tried
>>64205926Okay kiddo. Shouldn't you be in class? It's only 2:30.
>>64205762I think the better term is bug extermination for SEA inhabitants.
>>64205944see>>64205940
>>64204993kek
>>64204945They're all bulletproof
>>64204945>OP is a Nasty Girl in DC and wants to ask his TL that question but has been smoked for saying dumb shit in the pastYou're learning, PFC Numbnuts, but you aren't learning fast enough.
>>64206540I'm actually a Nasty Girl from Texas. Call me Texas Nasty Girl, or Dirlrwangerfag if ya nasty
>>64205077There was some doordash nigga on his scooter that got mushed by an APC, so they sorta just said. "Yeah that happens" And nothing got done about the whole dead door-dash nigga>which to be fair if you've ever been in an APC>you can't see shit!>plus doordash niggas are kamakazi pilotsAnyway, people went, "nah that's not ok" and started killing cops, burning down politicians houses and its pretty much 3rd world excuse to kick windows in and do some lootingGood times!Free tvs!
>>64208942>Free tvs!
>>64205020Typically the shield with a handle will have around 30-35lbs, if there is other stuff on it like the lights/strobes it will go up a few more lbs. So it's not that bad considering these are used for quick operations that last couple of minutes usually.
>>64204945they're for bottles and stuffpigs don't expect people to fight back unless asked if they do by a paid shill with a journalist badge
>>64208942>government toppled because some Indonesian fella wanted some takeoutkino
>>64208942But did doordash complete the order?
>>64209146No he died and assume the nasi goreng got flattened as well>>64209129Now I want some nasi goreng too
>>64208942>indonesia takes out take out indonesian>indonesians take out indonesia
>>64209162more like nazi goering
>>64205121>Always surprises me how violent of a place Indonesia is given how little it gets in the news.>>64205731>WTF it's true, I didn't even know its was all on fire. An interesting thing about Indonesia is that it once had one of the largest communist parties in the world, the largest one that wasn't actually in power, and they were totally annihilated (to fuckin death) by the right-wing military and Islamist guys back in the 1960s. Those guys have a paramilitary group that wears orange uniforms (kind of kino actually but it sticks out in the jungle so I dunno). So any reference to communism is illegal, but there are still leftists so they go for anarchism, therefore Indonesia might now have the largest anarchist movement on the planet, like antifa but a lot more of them and way more overcaffeinated:https://youtu.be/FKMaOpUxZEg
>>64205012I was shield guy on the Marshals task force. Pretty fun shooting and moving.
>>64205020>are they heavy?4U
>>64212499Marshals like the store?
>>64205077Government has been enforcing harsh austerity measures on everything except parliamentary entitlements and then they killed a protestor
