Default The proof marks on LP carriers

are most evident after sandblasting. There is a rosette about 1 1/2 inches diameter around the dent, which itself is quite smooth.

On the frontal armour forward of the bulkhead, thicker plate is used and the holes are much smaller in diameter but deeper. There is a slight raised edge but no rosette.

I suspect that Armour Piercing ammo was used here.

Has any one else noticed the smaller holes on their LP?
