The guy who owned and started
Second Chance let customer shoot his vests with a 44 mag as part of the sales pitch.

His connective tissue and ribs have been broken so many times his Doctors say it can't be repaired any more.... So he stopped being his own crash dummy.
 
One of the people that makes bullet proof vests does that to himself all the time using a 44 magnum. I forgot his name but he ain't too bright.
 
Wasn't that second chance guy named Richard Davis? We wore the second chance vest and it does give you a good feeling knowing the owner would be willing to do that. I agree, boo koo dinky dao!
 
I wore Second Chance armor while on duty/patrol for years. Like my Glock and a good pair of climbing shoes, I only buy what I trust my life with.
 
Amazing. Too bad natural selection couldn't penetrate that vest. Maybe I could send him a 5.7 and see if he test one of my old vests for me?
 
I met Richard Davis briefly when I lived up in Eastern Michigan. He had stopped shooting himself by that time... that was around 96 or so.

Wiki says did about 200 demos of his armor... starting with a 38 special... then with a 44 mag over the years

What brand are you buying? Because I don't trust any of my current shoes with my life :sarcastichand:
 
I haven't climbed in a couple of years now but my shoes are 5.10's and Mad Rocks.
 
All I can say is ol' boys family tree dosn't have many branches I'm thinking! BUT he did have a good shock absorber behind that vest LOL I'm rather surprised that the 10mm didn't knock him a touch more loopy than he already is! Later,

Iirc second chance went under after they recalled a ton of vest. Something about a material they switched to degraded rather quickly when exposed to everyday use. I'll have to look up the details on that, still even with the IIIa vest I have now I will not be shooting myself anytime soon.
 
Dude kinda looked like Rusty. Maybe a little to short though.

I kinda thought this too. lol.. rest assured that this is not something that I'd ever do! lol...

Also correct me if I'm wrong here, but is the vest not ruined once it's been shot?
