Are these bulletproof? Will they block 7.62×39mm and 5.56×45mm nato rounds?

Mine stopped a 20mm round fired at me from an A10. The dexterity was exceptional. So good in fact, it helped me to pick up my entrenching tool which I hurled at the plane literally knocking it out of the sky. Oh, they also protect your hand from heavy objects. An Abrams tank ran over mine and except for a little pressure I didn’t feel a thing. They can also withstand a bite from a 18’ Great White. Seriously, some of these questions are ridiculous. Stop eating Tide Pods you bunch of morons....

HOW DO I FIND OUT MY HAND SIZE?

I tried the hand size chart, and it tells me "Large", except I have trouble fitting into a 2X (XXL) glove. Take it with a grain of salt, and go find a store, try on various maker's sizes to actually find your size.

Would the 2X-small fit a 13 year old

There really is no right answer for this. I've seen a 13 yr old that was 6'2" & 240lbs who used size XL gloves. I'm 18 yrs old 5'8" & 140lbs and I usesize small.

Please, what is difference between XX-LARGE and 2X-Large? I need size 12" (28cm-30cm) and what do you think that is the right size?

Hi, Since I am not a seller, don't know why you are asking me about the size but here is a link that might helps you to find right size for you.http://www.mechanix.com/mech_download/76cd7a04f05ed8bd88e173cb0379ea9eIf the link does not work, please visit www.mechanix.com and see the bottom of the page. There is a link for glove sizing chart under the 'store' section. I hope this helps you.
