I’ve heard of a lot of stories where cops will get into a shootout with criminals, and their flashlights end up stopping at least one bullet.

Has anyone else ever heard of such a thing happening?

Donut operator is a youtuber that’s talked about that many times.

If anyone has some old aluminum flashlights that don’t work anymore and you also have guns, maybe make a video testing how bullet proof they are?

I mean, obviously, high velocity AP rounds would destroy almost anything, but the common calibers for magazine feed pistols and even some common calibers for magazine feed rifles are stopped by the average tactical flashlight.

    I just watch the uncut bodycam stuff most of the time, I mentioned Donut Operator because he’s one of the people I watch too, he showed some police-issue flashlights that were definitely broken, but they stopped a bullet that probably would’ve been fatal
