Double stack Brick, Logs, concrete logs, ICF blocks, all tend to be very bullet resistant.
There are a lot of good reasons to build houses out of concrete.....I want to do it to get the thermal mass that once well insulated on the exterior, keeps the house warm in winter for a long time.
It looks cool, but I was left with a few questions. Is this available? What’s the cost? Is the weight of this product within the limits of conventional foundations? And last, but not least, it seems to hold up to pistol rounds but what are it’s limits as to caliber?
Cinder block construction, re-bar dropped down every few bricks, pour concrete down the top of the wall till they are full. Even a 40mm would have a hard time with my walls.
The tragedy is we are worried about bullet proof homes.

A lot of homes in the town I grew up in were adobe. The old fashioned kind with mud, straw, broken glass, etc. They were mostly plastered inside and out. Between one and two feet thick, they could stop most bullets and on rare occasions, did.
Back in mid 80’s I tested sifcon ballistic walls for sandia labs. My EOD team used grenades, small arms, 50 caliber and RPG’s against this stuff. Stopped all attacks except a shape charge we rigged to make sure we punched a hole in it.....
We discussed sifcon here at FR back in 07.......

Granted not same as your product on this thread but was eventually used in construction of ballistic structures.
You’ll need them soon, to protect yourselves from muslims.
my house is pretty much bullet proof except for the windows.
