Question, could a 9mm even go through a Spartan shield?

Spartan shields were a quater to half an inch of cast bronze, so i would say probably not, the fact that bronze is flexible would just help absord the impact of the bullets.

Yea, and I don't even think the .45 ACP version would penetrate without armor-piercing bullets.

It sounds like this Kyle is just another ghetto ***** bullshitting about something he doesn't understand.  

[Man of the Demoneye]

Think about it this way, even if you did shoot through the shields, by the time you reloaded you would be able to stand upright without the use of your legs.

Kyle needs to be taken out of the gene pool...
Back alley vasectomy for him.

Watch him bring up the AK47, or the Desert Eagle, next.

And, as much as I think Chief is awesome, he'd be really hard pressed to take one of those down without a rocket launcher, or even with a Spartan Laser.
I'd say he'd manage it with a tank, but then there's the issue of how fast he can target and fire on the Deathwing before it fires back on him.

Puff the magic dragon would wreck an army of spartans. "We dont care if you fight in the shade we'll, blow the living ******** out of you with our miniguns!"

Spartans aren't invisible.

Unless they pick up active camouflage.

OTHER POSSIBLE JOKE:

Spartans don't have barrel shrouds.

I'd still like to test it with canister shot. biggrin

A Spartan sheild ight be able to take a 9mm... but im sure anything bigger (or pointier) then that would go right through...

Now how about another question; pit those same 300 Spartans against a squad of SEALS... even match?

And btw, Hunt for the Red October is a badass book. Loved it from beginning to end. ^__^

The movie was a little boring, but still a good movie. I'll have to make a point of getting the book some day. My reading queue is kinda full at the moment. I'm working on finishing one of my grandpas Mack Bolan books then I'm going to read my Splinter Cell book that just came in, after that I spotted U-571 so I'll probably read that too. It's gonna take some time though. I've been working on this Mack Bolan book for like a week and I'm only 100 pages in. Obviously I'm not much of a reader.

The Red October book was horrible. It took me three or four YEARS to get bored enough to chug through Chapter 5. So ******** boring I couldn't stay focused and read it, but I didn't want to skip it because I felt I'd be missing something.

And then I went on to read the entire Op-Center and Net Force series.

Really? I loved Red October, but that may have just been because i was already ******** nuts over it just from the movie. I've read most of the other "main storyline" books. Haven't splintered off into the netforce stuff yet.

I haven't read any of the Jack Ryan books other than Red October, but I've read most of the other storylines (except the Power Plays stuff). Net Force was hilarious at times, especially when the guys in the military wing make fun of their CO for carrying a Thompson and a wheelgun into battle when everyone else is using polymer.

Op Center ******** pissed me off when they killed off half the cast. Wanted to strangle Tom Clancy for that one.
