I agree entirely with the nod your head approach because it usually works best (oddly enough, it works in the motorcycle store too). The 9mm being stopped by a Carhartt reminds me of the multiple times i've heard that 5.56mm isn't a good round and you're better off with a .308 because the .223 is worthless. One guy I smiled and nodded at, the other I said, "I wouldn't want to get shot with either." Very good points and good realism in the story.
