I bet this didn't end well....

[bogie]

I'm betting that is more than likely a .38 Super, or something even smaller, and it is loaded WAY down, shooting a light wadcutter type of round.

Of course, just now seeing the post that got in while I was typing... I'd vote for a 12 gauge and slugs...

The New York Post website says it's from 1926, did the .38 Super exist back then? Regardless, would YOU get behind the glass?

The cornered cat comes through as usual.The .38 Super was introduced in 1929 making it a little late on the stage for our photo op.

".38 Super Auto, commonly called simply .38 Super, was introduced in 1929 and was popular for many years. However, it was steadily diminishing in popularity and perhaps on the edge of extinction when a new shooting sport called IPSC revived it and gave it a place in history. Now it is once again among the most popular calibers. The .38 Super is widely used in competition firearms to provide power nearly equivalent to a .45 ACP, but with the lighter recoil and magazine capacity more typical of the 9mm. Despite the name, .38 Super does not fire bullets .38" in diameter. The bullets it uses are .355" or .356" across."

I may be the only one to realize this... but the Germans seem to have taken upon the 1911 for "bullet proof glass training"...

 

[brigadier]

Humor aside, the target most suffered an incredible shock in his hands from the impact of the bullet and lost control of the glass plate, possibly hitting himself with it but not too hard. Cut himself with a corner in the worst case scenario. The bullet would have exploded in to fragments, almost undoubtedly getting the target in the fingers and going all over the room.

BTW.
The owner of Second Chance Armor had someone shoot him with a FAL while wearing one of his vests and standing on one leg in order to prove that small arms rounds cannot knock you down. That got him a reputation as a man who literally stands behind his product.

[Foster and Mac have pulled a man over for speeding and are deciding what game to play]
Mac: All right, how about "Cat Game?"
Foster: Cat Game? What's the record?
Mac: Thorny did six, but I think you can do ten.
Foster: Ten? Starting right 'meow?'
[Mac laughs - they walk up to the car, and Foster taps on the driver side]
Larry Johnson: Sorry about the...
Foster: All right meow. (1) Hand over your license and registration.
[the man hands him his license]
Foster: Your registration? Hurry up meow. (2)
[Mac ticks off two fingers]
Larry Johnson: Sorry.
[the man laughs a little]
Foster: Is there something funny here boy?
Larry Johnson: Oh, no.
Foster: Then why you laughing, Mister... Larry Johnson?
[pause]
Foster: All right meow, (3) where were we?
Larry Johnson: Excuse me, are you saying meow?
Foster: Am I saying meow?
[Mac puts his hands up for the fourth one, but makes an "eehhh" facial expression, as he is considering the last one]
Larry Johnson: I thought...
Foster: Don't think boy. Meow, (4) do you know how fast you were going?
[man laughs]
Foster: Meow. (5) What is so damn funny?
Larry Johnson: I could have sworn you said meow.
Foster: Do I look like a cat to you, boy? Am I jumpin' around all nimbly bimbly from tree to tree?
[Mac is gut-busting laughing]
Foster: Am I drinking milk from a saucer?
[feigned anger]
Foster: Do you see me eating mice?
Foster: [Mac and the man are laughing their heads off now] You stop laughing right meow! (6)
Larry Johnson: [the man stops and swallows hard] Yes sir.
Foster: Meow, (7) I'm gonna have to give you a ticket on this one. No buts meow. (8) It's the law.
[rips off the ticket and hands it to the man]
Foster: Not so funny meow, (9) is it?
