Thanks for the reply.  I was thinking they were more BP than they are.  So a
bunch of stolen Riot Shields into a crowded room with some angry templar's
or milita members wouldn't exactly be a good thing for the bad guys, even
with surprise on their side.  I don't really want to use Junker tech because
the Black Hat's aren't exactly people who would have a huge abundance of
Junker Tech.  If Denver can't make it, they typically won't have it in bulk.
Back to the drawing board...

set up in Panama in the 94-95 timeframe, some of the Cubans could break the
shield down the middle with a well-placed baseball-style hurled rock. Like
most pieces of armor, the riot shields are designed to deflect non-direct
fire bitz (debris, shrapnel, etc) and provide a morale boost to the user.
There are some heavier versions, but they are REALLY heavier--more like
mantlets than shields.  I'd give a regular lexan riot shield an AV of 2,
since they really won't stop all but the most under-powered bullet. Of
course, you can argue the advance of tech has boosted them up, so use
whatever you feel is appropriate for the situation against your posse's
firepower.
