Serious question: if I’m crouched behind a file cabinet during a home invasion, will a file cabinet stop a bullet, or am I basically just asking for trouble?
A file cabinet may stop low-powered handgun bullets, but it cannot reliably stop high-powered rifle rounds.
A steel cabinet filled with paper or thick files can improve protection, while an empty or thin metal cabinet offers almost no defense.
Additionally, bullet caliber, shooting distance, and angle significantly affect penetration, so a file cabinet should not be relied on as the sole protection.
