To you it's not but look at ot this way, the acid in your stomach could burn through solid steel.
????
But also consider how much there is, and how much it can burn before it becomes useless.
If being shot in the stomach, IE a hole put into your stomach lining, released your stomach acid, then don't you think it would be depicted grpahically more often? You know Quentin Tarantino would be showing it every few seconds in every bloody movie he does...
And stomach acid will eat through a layer of concrete in a matter of seconds, so no, I don't think 10 to 20 minutes is right if it is true that your the acid pours out if your shot in the stomach. What I think would actual happen if you were shot in that particular organ is that the muscus lining that prevents the acid from eating you from the inside out would ooze in and close any bullet hole (unless your talking a huge sized thing, but remember, you stomach is only about the size of your fist unless you just ate and if the hole shot in your is big enough, the stomach would be gone anyways and who the hell cares about the acid then?) and you'd die of blood lose anyways because of the amount of blood viens in the stomach wall itself.
But I guess the only real way to find out is to ask a medical professional.

What if you were bayonetted in the stomach?
Or what if you turned a murderer on yourself?

The information was from the book The Davinci Code. So, you have the info, being stabbed would do the same, now I did this for the hell of it. Let's not get into a debait over it. That, and do you have any idea how long it takes you to bleed to death, hours. That is, for a bullet wound to the stomach.

Well, actually that isn't suprising at all. Since the metals in steel are higher in the activity series than hydrogen, any acid could "burn" through steel. It isn't actually burning though, it's just that the metals in steel are displacing the hydrogen in the acid, making a salt (depending on what the acid is) and Hydrogen gas.
:D

I thought Fry-lock was the smart one...
Well, we have one undeniable fact today.
