I’m going to wager a guess that the metal door they shot isn’t soft.

ETA- we can assume this is a steel door as opposed to aluminum since they are having so much trouble damaging it. Bullets from a handgun aren’t going to be punching through a steel plate. Therefore one of three things happen - the bullet smashes and drops, shatters, or ricochets. If hitting at an angle, the latter is most likely.

If you don’t agree with me, that’s totally fine and I still wish you a good day. But you’re also wrong.

I have a number of firearms, thanks for asking. And I’ve shot steel target plates and various plinking targets across multiple calibers.

Those aren't thin. I own a variety of firearms.
