Micrography of the plate in a section, in the middle of the thickness. The aligned pitting is associated to the chemical etch of inclusions and second phases. The structure is granular but the grain boundaries do not appear at that magnification, originally 50x.

ML00145 — Impact of a .380 Winchester on 6061 T6 PlateM - Aluminum Magnesium SiliconP - Rolled PlateAp - StructureCd - Pierced
Micrography of the plate in a section, in the middle of the thickness, in a position where the plate was not affected by the shot. The microstructure is granular although the grain boundaries are not resolvable at this magnification. The black spots are localized corrosion in aligned particles.

Cm - Keller Etched Micrography by OMDf - Granular structure
Micrography of the damaged plate at the side of the bullet impact, top of the figure. The perforated hole expulsed the material to the top and bottom directions. There are evidences of plastic deformation of the plate microstructure and the hardness level close to the hole increased from 123 HV to 131 HV (1kg)

Micrography of the damaged plate at the side of the bullet impact, top of the figure. The perforated hole expulsed the material to the top and bottom directions and the copper alloy is evident at the hole surface.After etching it is clear the strong plastic deformation of the plate microstructure and the hardness level close to the hole increased from 151 HV to 308 HV (1kg).
