Probably an airgun and not a very powerful one.
according to some dude with a lots of guns, youtube channel and a cybertruck it will stop 9x19mm and .22 LR, but not .17 HMR, .223/5.56x45mm, or presumably anything bigger. .17 HMR will stop in doors, but will go through external plate
anyway this is movie plot scenario relevant only to edgelords. maybe it'll be easier to avoid being shot at by not being in a car associated with shitheads
Wait are the windows Bulletproof? Because I don't think you can do that and still comply with safety regulations.
Cars with bulletproof windows definitely exist and can be driven on the street?
Interesting. Must be some sort of safety exemption?
I guess you could have a bullet proof layer seperated by some air and some extra layers of plastic in-between, sounds like it would be hella chunky though.
Back a couple decades ago in the industry it was kind of a trade off between splattering your skull on the window, or stopping rifle rounds. Seems like improvements might have been made.
