Bulletproof Gator

 was the third episode of Season 1 of Hardcore Pawn. It originally aired on August 23, 2010.

Plot
A customer sells a live alligator, which reminded Les of the pet gator that the shop had as its mascot before it died. A man pawns his lucky African statue and later returns – just to rub it for good luck. Another wants to sell a used bullet-proof vest, but Les wants to see it tested out first. The employees train in self-defense, to be ready if anything violent occurs. A man offers a motorcycle, but Ashley's skills are questioned again when she refuses to accept the motorcycle.
