Maybe not as much force as you think. The stainless used in these guns is pretty soft, even compared to regular steel, and I'm guessing the bend occurred at the outer edge of the shield where it's thinnest. I'm betting a drop from about chest/shoulder height would be sufficient, but it would have to hit just right.
