When paper clips can be used as a bulletproof vest

With the 'little help' approach, the Impact Ohio armor technology offers a new protection - the Ballistic Clipboard.

Although the police officers in many countries have been given bulletproof shirts, they do not need to wear them all the time. Do you want to change the whole thing by just using one of the things around you? With the 'little help' approach, the Impact Ohio armor technology offers a new protection - the Ballistic Clipboard.

In addition to the document retention function, the Clipboard is a bulletproof shield that can block 9mm, 0.357, .40 and 0.44 bullets, while also preventing blunt weapons and blunt weapons. Clipboard weighs less than 2 pounds (907 grams).

While some people imagine a hopeless employee trying to hide their whole body behind a clipboard, it is not intended to be used this way. Most likely, in situations where the attacker fires furiously at the employee's chest, the clipboard will then be the shield against the bullets.

This is not really an eccentric idea, as the first IMPACT was designed to meet a requirement from local law enforcement. In addition, the company is not the only vendor of such products. Although the shield type with designs like the IMPACT is unique, there are many popular bulletproof clipboards from other manufacturers.
