The Paulson BS-2 is the BS-9's more wieldy and slightly smaller cousin. Standing up, it covers about half the body instead of 3/4ths. But like the larger shield, these can take a clobbering with no problems.

The idea behind the iconic riot shield is as old as shields themselves - a carriable protective barrier against your adversary. Tactics as old as the Roman Empire prove a shield of this size and stature (especially when teamed up with a posse of other shield-wielders) can turn you into a walking tank.

Paulson, a prolific manufacturer of polycarbonate PPE and other riot gear, made these to hold up to some serious abuse. Thrown projectiles, chemicals, and even a little fragmentation can be shrugged off thanks to the quarter-inch thick V-50 rated Lexan™*. If you somehow break one of these under the tremendous load or impact it would take to do so, the material is shatterproof. 

*Note: There is NOT a specific NIJ Ballistic rating on these, meaning there is likely no protection from firearms. For god's sake, stay safe.

The shields are in a one-hand configuration and is ambidextrous if you flip it over. You can also switch the position of the handles by taking off the covers on the outside of the shield and removing the fasteners.

And no, contrary to the opinion of the 15 year old who berated you on Modern Warfare 2, you're not a P***y if you use the riot shield. Noob tubers on the other hand...

Buffing and Polishing

A trip to your local hardware store for some automotive compound and polish OR a headlight restoration kit (you may need 2 for the full face of the shield) and you can get most of the clarity back. Keep in mind that this will affect any anti-fog coating on the shield. The shield may appear hazy as you first use the compound, but rest assured the polish and any sealant you may apply will clear it up. You can either apply by hand, use a power drill-style attachment, or for you gearheads, use a dedicated polisher with light to moderate pressure to get the best results (follow the instructions on whatever compound/polish you get)
