    The interior walls in my European apartment are made of a thick layer of reinforced concrete I find it quite unlikely any bullets will go through…

      Do you have air conditioning? I’m starting to wonder if that’s related to insulation. Or maybe it’s just older. Then again, 120 year old American houses have plaster walls which will also not stop a bullet. Buuuuut European buildings are much older. Or, can be. Probably just built better too.

        Air conditioning is very uncommon in my country, because of the climate, so we do not have it. It is insulated quite well, but it probably also helps that there are only two outer walls, while the rest are walls separating apartments. The building is from the early 70’s, so it is not that old.
