Okay this is a single question...how does it feel to be shot? In any area; I know that depending of the caliber of the weapon it can cause much more damage, also the speed and type of bullet influences. Also the point of penetration can cause the mass lost of live tissue and blood, like for example a direct shot at point blank range to the head.
I know there's some people who are or were in the military and certainly they have been shot in combar, or at least in their body armor. So that brings me to my second question.
How does it feel to be shot with your body armor on?
If the bullet is stopped in a certain area and depending of the total force of impact, the bullet can even break a rib or even can cause internal bleeding.
I have read a lot of this but I have never heard it personally from people who have experience this.
The thing Im making this questions, its because I fear for the safety of my family; yesterday 2 people were killed near my house to rob them of their belongings, and Im afraid that I will be forced to buy a weapon to defend my family, maybe a Glock 17 that are cheap and reliable. And if I ever got shot someday I want to be prepared and what could I do to survive.
