If you shoot a bullet at a riot shield, you might think it would blow off the projectile, but that's not actually the case. Most riot shields are made of a lightweight plastic, designed to protect against thrown objects like rocks and bottles, not bullets. When a bullet strikes a standard riot shield, it can easily penetrate or shatter the shield, putting the person behind it at serious risk.
