I'll find out one day.

I have seen a 270 go thru 12mm of mild steel.

I think they're very strong, both the metal and the glass. Here, people either blow them up or cut the wires that feeds them with electricity. I once tried to melt through a parking ticket machine with thermite. It didn't work, the metal only expanded a little bit. I think those machines are bullet-proof.


I think thermite is better for destroying machines by welding parts and setting things
on fire. To use it to make a hole you would need a container lined with refactory
material and few inches of stand off from the target. A thin metal disc
(in bottem of a funnel shaped refractory) to act as a delay
so the thermite has time to reacted and make a pool of molten iron ready to flow done
on a small 6 mm stream to the target.

I know. I used a Coke can as container and a sparkler as a fuse. I should probably had used a ceramic flower pot with a hole in the bottom to make all the molten iron flow through the metal, but I was afraid that the flower pot could be used as evidence against me. I wasn't sure it hadn't got my fingerprints on it.

Brake cleaner should do a good job of removing fingerprints!!

OK. I will remember that. I did that due to have been feed as well, for parking on a private parking place (without knowing it and without the owner of the place knowing it either, only the f*****g parking guard).

I saw that movie a few weeks ago on late night tv. That warden voice is sampled
in Gun&Roses' "Civil War".

It's low tech and non permanant, but couldn't you make their lives much more unpleasant with simple paint bombs over the camera lens? Wouldn't they have to pay somebody to clean them off every time?

I'm not saying I would do either, each being against the law, but if you are going to do something, I think a 270 or 7mm Mag through the camera casing and the camera makes more of a statement and can be done more safely from a longer distance, enabling a cleaner getaway :twisted:

I like Litigious's style and blowing them up. 8)

Me too except I'd like something longer ranged like a big .338 (Lapua, Lazzeronni or Weatherby)

Or maybe a .404 Jeffery or a .378 Weatherby

Hmm machine some .223 140 grain tungsten projectiles. Make some plastic sabot to
fit them in a 308 or 30-06 rifle. They will put a hole in that camrea. First choice would
be depleted uranium while cheap its not ready available as tungsten.
Called accelerator rounds. Because when the sabots seperate the projectile will speed up
as its air resistance go down. Plus the sabot serves to reduce barrle where. Machine teflon should work.

Other idea make tungsten double hemispherical projectile with plastic sabot for 12 gauge
shotgun. A double hemisphere will stablize in flight.

Buy a one watt IR laser diode (way more powerfull than needed but it will allow more
error in focus) Aim it at the camrea should defeat its night time IR.

Been there done that, got the t-shirt. Actually, for AP Sabot rounds I was thinking using Inconel instead. The tungsten is a bit brittle and could shatter on harder targets. Inconel is tough and should punch through anything.
