Dude decided to engage Vancouver swat with a .50 this morning. News on this should be interesting

Police forces worldwide are REALLY lucky that 99.99% of armed criminals, violent drunks, and emotionally disturbed types that they deal with do not have any clue of how to conduct actual effective attacks, shoot, or utilize their weaponry to maximize casualties.

The folks out there that do know these things are usually the ones that go out of their way to avoid confrontations and police encounters.
 
.50 BMG M33 Ball will not penetrate a 3/8” AR500 plate.

.50 API/T, MK211, MK263, and SLAP will easily make it through any ballistic glass and through Bearcat or MRAP armor.

.50 ball won’t even make it through a quality Level IV plate at 10 yards.

Moral of the story: If you’re gonna use a Fiddy to FAFO, use real ammo.

Exactly what I was thinking and always have. The ones that actually end up coming into contact with even a moderately trained individual usually end up dead.
