Still weary that machine gun rounds on your drive from Malibu to Beverly Hills will render you unable to attend next year’s Polo matches whilst you summer in The Hamptons? Well, the fine folks at Texas Armoring are here to put those fears to rest. Trent Kimball, the company's president and CEO will spare no expense to prove that his vehicles are the most luxurious and impervious driving machines in the world. Seated in a Mercedes GL450 modified by Texas Armoring with an AK-47 shooting directly at his head, Kimball comes away completely uninjured.

You gotta feel pretty dang confident in your product to be the guy in the vehicle

I know someone that got shot at multiple times in an armored 760 and lived to tell the tale. Someone tried to have him killed in New Orleans, and he just picked up the car a month earlier. Was definitely happy he did, and went and ordered a new one the next day

The 10th one was literally on top of the 8th one. How many shots in the same spot can these bullet proof windows take before giving out? Jeez that is scary.

I enjoyed watching someone else do that.

Seen it.
Still surprises me that he doesn't flinch. Ever.

I had the same thought. It has to weaken each time it is hit. You would think three bullets in the same area could get through maybe.

Not too many. Chances of multiple rounds in a real life scenario of that happening are very very low if the car is moving.

I know those guys (his brother used to work for me - Kimble is the last name). They have seriously good products. They are also involved with Pirreti Putters which is why I have one in my bag.

Depending on the rating but usually has to have zero penetration for 5 shots in a 3in sq or something close to that
