Can a bullet go through a brick?

Answer 1

A bullet can shatter a brick, but the bullet will be flattened or broken into fragments by the time it comes out the other side of the brick. So that means it will be less dangerous than it was before it impacted the brick. It will be slower and less aerodynamic, less streamlined. It will quickly lose even more speed as it goes through the air. Brick walls offer pretty good protection against a few handgun bullets, but multiple hits from powerful rifle bullets can shatter the bricks and leave a hole for other bullets to fly through.
