Since I'm obviously the tank in your analogy I must be wearing body armor. Since the .45ACP is the slowest and fattest bullet (Vickers-S analogue) I'd prefer that... Try to hit the chest plate, please?  :confused:  :uhoh :D

All of them are going to knock you flat on your backside (or drop in dire pain), break a few ribs, cause bruising of your internals, and make you cry for mommy.   :aok

Might get some bruising.

Considering that the shot was to the stomach, against a man that knew he was going to get shot, I'd have called the result even before the shot was made.  There is a reason he didn't take a shot to the center mass (sternum/ribs).   ;)

I took a bean bag round to the chest with a ballistic vest on.  That alone was enough to make me go wipe.  I had plenty of bruising after the fact.  Not fun.

Interesting information on Airborne AT velocities, etc:

I can't find anything remotely close to a 3,000+ FPS round on any airborne anti-tank gun...

Anyone?
