the intercooler is about 3.5 inches thick, and is very densely packed.
the aluminum is equivalent to over an inch thick piece of aluminum.
compared to a blue propane tank
compared to my hand (I'm 5' 10" tall, 175 pounds)

Damage shots!

this is a recent 25 psi shot using a ball bearing at 100' with the swat gun.

well, I dont mean the strength. I mean the aluminum, If flattened, would be a little over an inch thick.
the penetration is still quite good, considering the distance, pressure, and the thickness of the target.
you cant hardly put a sharpened metal pole through one of these, even when you pound it with a sledgehammer.
I mean, it was a hundred feet away.

yes, you can bent the first layer, or outer edges.goathunter wrote:I agree with Showno Mercy.You can crush it with your thumb.I used to get in trouble as a kid for crushing the vanes.
try hitting it with a hammer, it wont do anywhere near that.
the aluminum builds up, and gets proportionatly harder to compress, so by half way through, it's like a block of compacted aluminum.

If your getting chased off a police dog, try not to run through a tunnel then onto a small see-saw then through a ring of fire. They are trained for that!
