.357 Sig will penetrate a bullet proof vest made of Kevlar. Now it didn't have a trauma plate in it, but the Kevlar itself. I have seen it done, on a range, the exact indoor range formerly know as"On-Target" that was owned by Mr. Mark Wilson, but now is called "Lock-N-Load". The test was performed on the Kevlar not long after the .357 Sig came out, and it was administered by a former DEA Agent/DEA Firearms Instructor. The Kevlar stopped .45, 9mm, and .357 Mag., but not the .357 Sig. Believe it or not, but I saw it with my own eyes.

As for what he carried that day, Mark Wilson was carrying a 1911 .45, I saw it. It was not a Glock, nor a .40. This is the last time I am going post that.
