    I don't know the last rock I think I hit turned into several smaller rocks so I am not sure if there was a rock there to begin with lol. It can take a beating I can say that for sure. If not you can always use it as a riot shield lol

    6? I could swear mine has four, but I could be wrong it's been a few months or the TRDOR is different than my 4X4 SR5
    But yeah, that too, not much protection on the stock
