    In the books it explains that wizard robes have charms against physical attacks woven into the threads. They’re wearing full body bulletproof vests.

        There’s no reason wizard hats can’t shield the face from bullets. In fact, in the later books there might be a hat that does basically that IIRC.

        Besides which, wizard hats have wide brims. And they have scarves.

          In the face. Where there is no cloth. Also, just shoot them with a shotgun. That’s gonna hurt like hell and bruise the shit out of them if the threads manage to stop the bullets.

          Just keep shooting at it until it dies. Doom advice.

      Where in the books does it say that?

        During the Dumbledore’s army arc, I think book 5. I don’t really care enough to go back and find the quote, but it was a fairly significant plot point in the resistance movement.

          Apparently, the clothing with permanent shield charms are an invention of the Weasley Twins (https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Jinx-Off). So, not as widespread in the wizarding world as you assume. The article on the shield charm itself lists that most wizards can’t produce a functional shield charm (https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Shield_Charm), so yeah, guess a muggle with a gun could kill most wizards. I apologize for linking to fandom.

            Joanne really gave her child army some bulletproof t-shirts.

            Oh, I must have misremembered. I knew their clothes had charms in them. It makes sense that it wouldn’t be something most people would need outside of a conflict.

        I mean yeah, one Bayonetta could take on the entire wizarding world with both hands behind her back.

          with both hands behind her back.

          … a gun in each of them, killing two targets at once, mid-backflip, while delivering innuendo.
