The test sample was rigidly fixed on an indoor range 50.0 feet from the muzzle of a test barrel to produce zero degree obliquity impacts. Photoelectric lumiline screens were positioned at 6.5 and 9.5 feet which, in conjunction with elapsed time counters (chronographs), were used to compute projectile velocities 8.0 feet forward of the muzzle. penetrations were determined by visual examination of a 0.020 inch thickness alloy 2024T3 aluminum witness panel positioned 6.0 inches behind, and parallel to, the test sample.

2850fps @ 50ft
All surfaces are constructed of 3/8"or 1/2" AR500 (Abrasion Resistance) 'Armor Plate'. This steel will withstand repeated hits from virtually any shotgun, handgun or rifle fire to include M855 - 5.56mm (SS109) & 7.62X51mm NATO ammunition and armor piercing equivalents.
The Modular Armored Security Shields have also successfully defeated .50 caliber steel core ball ammunition fired from a M2HB Browning Machine Gun at 100 meters.
The 20 º deflection angle ensures maximum safety for security personnel.
Because of the 20 º deflection angle, and the "clean face" design of the M.A.S.S., fragmentation is safely directed down and away from the protected Sentry's position.
