A couple summers ago, some friends of mine and I built a fake wall to shoot at with various ammunition. The wall was designed to mimic standard home, outside wall construction: 2x4 frame, panelling, sheetrock, air space, plywood, and siding. On the back side of the wall, we put a shelf with water jugs on it.
We then shot the wall at a distance of around 15 feet, which we figured was probably a good distance for an across the room shot.
Just like everything else we put out there, Glasers went through that wall.
I would not want to bet my children's lives on a couple sheets of dry rock stopping
any bullet, not even a Glaser.
