I wonder if on tactical forums Mr. McClung is publically denouncing the author of the article in American Cop...he's just an ex-FBI agent, therefore deserving of the same slander I received I'm sure. I wonder who's 'sock puppet' he is or if he deserves the label of 'quack' or that his skills as an agent were as poor as the information he wrote about.......
But that was all in the past...or was it? Anyone peeking?

In my experience, LeMas .45 ACP from a 3.5" barrel will spank 3A all day long.
I agree. They should at least be wearing a level III plate certified against LeMas.

Was punching holes in IIIA with no problem, also some steel plates. Would have to ask Stan (APLP) what type of plate is needed to stop the AP rounds.

Also, To use a quote from Lt. Col Dave Grossman on attacking "good" people like what occured to me (as TS, TR and others well know) on Tactical Forums
"A warrior is measured by his enemies. The more dispicable the attackers, the more noble the target. Your attackers are dirt bag pissant waste-of-sperm scum. Which places you pretty high on the 'noble' scale."

SS,

I trust you, Doc T, and TS with my life (I actually used to have directions written on the exterior of my vest to fly me to Doc T's hospital should I go down on duty). Because of that trust no one will sway my opinion in matters in which you, Doc T, or TS have weighed in on. Frankly, I hardly even waist my time reading the dissenting opinions... I have better shit to do with my time than wasting it worrying about what a freaking dentist thinks about a bullet nor what his harem of bitches think or say. Especially in matters of character!

If you and TS say its the best shit out there, I will take it to the bank. Just please let know when something better comes out.

Thanks for all your hard work and professionalism!

Joe
