plywood, lexan, both?

I didn't think you could count on brick exteriors.
Even a single layer of brick will stop just about anything. You said you have two layers.
Bricks stop bullets. Period.

I have one layer and I was counting on the layer around my neighbor's house.
ETA: It sounds like I'm in a good enough position to just buy the plywood and double up inside the closets (since I have more window surface area than closet interior) w/o feeling like too much of a risk to the neighbors should I need to deal w/ an unwanted houseguest.

Not sure if this would apply to you, but those of us who have a lot of books can use a full bookshelf as pretty darn good cover. I have one positioned at a 90 degree angle to my front door (hard to explain, easy to see) to use if needed.

Double up the critical wall with bricks dry-stacked between the studs.
