Rubbish. The impact of a bullet doesn't knock people down, and "energy transfer" as a wounding mechanism is nonsense. When a bullet stops, do you honestly believe that it somehow throws a magical force forward? Total garbage - when a bullet stops inside a body it's because it has simply run out of steam.

I hope that job pays well!
