So, are we saying that the testing is done with 6.22J at the center of the lense in a direct line with the eye, instead of a glancing blow (which will result in angular conservation of energy of the BB upin deflection)?

If so, this is much ado about nothing and needless fear monging that is worse than counter-productive.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep discussing what's for dinner.

Freedom is the wolves limping away while the sheep reloads.

Never confuse freedom with democracy.
