Please help me figure this out. thank you so much.Can I take normal designed rubber sheets and use it for a purpose never used before and patent it? So no one else can sell sheets of rubber doing what was never done with rubber before?Here's a close enough scenerio/example: Take a grippy rubber sheet with adhesive on one side and it sticks on ruff of your car, for purposes of putting luggage on top. Its a crappy example but you can see what I am trying to say.Could I patent the idea of putting rubber sheets on my car, so no other company can sell rubber sheets for purpose of putting on roof of a car to hold luggage? I know you can go into stores and buy sheets of rubber BUT I wanna know is there some kinda patent that would make it that I can be the only one advertising/selling sticky rubber sheets to be placed roofs of cars?Thanks so so much for your help
Yes, the faceshield is a common replacement part. Most manufacturers offer various shades, including the original clear. The hinge hardware (some call them pods) are also available. Note that this is for most modern helmets. I can no longer find parts for my Fulmer (circa 1982). While Nolan has many parts available, I couldn't get a shield for my N25. (Also out of date - I no longer have it).
Safety slugs are designed to fragment rapidly and pose little threat of a ricochet. They generally do not penetrate very well, but create multiple wound channels. More effective? At What? If I were in an airplane, they'd be my round of choice. Same if I were in a school full of children I was tasked to defend. In normal circumstances I would prefer the hollow point if those were my only options. They're not though. I generally carry a soft lead semi-wadcutter for a bit more penetration, even through winter garb. If you can place your rounds accurately, under stress, then all of this is academic. A well placed shot from a .22lr beats a miss with a .45, everyday of the week. Concern yourself more with your technique, and basic skills. You are the most important factor in a gunfight.
