    You want to aim for the pelvic girdle for a lot of reasons;

    • you can tell the direction of a target so you know where to lead
    • it’s the main pivot of the body so it moves the most predictably when in motion.
    • it’s full of arteries and will incapacitate the target which is more disruptive to a group than a kill shot as they are incentivized to render aid
    • it’s the least impacted by adipose tissue ensuring full terminal ballistic effect.

    But if you look at a lot of the plate carriers meal team six are wearing, they’re thin, so it’s level 3 body armor max. Any 223/5.56 round will punch right through.

      I want to aim for the dick because I only have .22, and because I want to shoot these fascists in the dick.
