Dear forum members,
doing researches for investigative magazines here in Germany I have problems understanding some pics that show damages supposedly caused by 9mm bullets.
Lacking knowledge of ballistics I just can't explain those damages.
The first of two phenomenons I documented in the attached pdf file. Just ignore the german text and have a look at the pictures.
The phenomenon consists of nearly perfect(!!) circles that were broken (?) out of some windows allegedly caused by 9mm pistol stray bullets.
Those circles look like they'd been cut out by a glass cutter and are much bigger than the bullet itself.
Can anyone explain the mechanism that causes the glass to do that when hit by a 9mm bullet?
Because too big I had to make two parts
