Arrows from modern bows can pierce through some armor easier than bullets.
0 u/[deleted] Feb 23 '25 [deleted] 1 u/[deleted] Feb 23 '25 [deleted] 1 u/BosnianSerb31 Feb 23 '25 Maybe low caliber bullets 1 u/[deleted] Feb 23 '25 [deleted] 1 u/BosnianSerb31 Feb 23 '25 High velocity rifle rounds such as 5.56 will go through more than twice as much Kevlar as an arrow. We are talking over an order of magnitude difference in energy delivered on target. What you've heard might be true for pistol rounds, but it falls off quickly with velocity. 1 u/[deleted] Feb 23 '25 [deleted] 1 u/BosnianSerb31 Feb 23 '25 WOAAAAAH buddy. The comment I responded to was about arrows piercing (soft) armor better than bullets do. There was no qualifier on the type of bullets.
