    Robert, I'm no ballistics expert.
    That's a fact. Also a fact, you ain't no naval architect.
    I was simply supporting the statements of
    a person I know and trust against an unprovoked attack.
    "unprovoked attack"?? some guy is so worried about getting killed by pirates
    "out there" that he builds his boat 5" thick to be strong enough to take a
    direct, short range hit from "a copper-jacketed .357 round" and you feel
    offended by what you call an "unprovoked attack"? the dood is paranoid.

    BOO!!
