It's stated as well that his skin is near bullet proof suggesting it can be cut by what's been shown to be high caliber bullets but those don't go pass the muscle which is denser then steel.

Namor losing to Thing was bollocks, though.
To be honest I don't know what to think of Namor his fight against the Squadron was pretty impressive given he did well against all of them save the heat vision.
The Panther instance seems a bit bad though.
I'd be glad if Namor was given a good fight against Thor or Hulk in recent despite some of my comments in this thread don't get me wrong I like the character I've purchased some of his stories

TBH that issue had a few problems, but that part was something I felt strengthened my opinion. You can see that even though the bullets break his skin, they still bounce off and are warped by the impact of hitting something too tough for them.

I don't really care about Namor either way, but he does seem to be one of those characters that writers get a bit loose with at times.

Looking at this is I agree with Hulk.
The Ironman thing doesn't seem right to me he's put up pretty good Fights against Thor but physically they shouldnt be in the same class 2 seconds or not. Regardless Heavyweights should be able to put up Fights with Super Heavy weights
I'd probably drop Ironman to heavyweight and Thing below characters like Namor and Black Bolt.

Which part isnt true? Namor being overall consistent with his strength? How is that false? And Namor has always shown to be on par or within range when fighting other heavyweights. Why would you suggest otherwise?And just because its not stated Namor is one of the strongest on earth doesnt mean he isnt. Hes rarely mentioned as one of the strongest on earth, but considering all his fights or scuffles with the like shows him to be.
Everyone has low showings, man. Ive never seem Namor bleed from gunshots either, but Aquaman has.
A writer will do whatever they may see fit in order to fit the story. We know this. Id bet there are 99% of people who feel that Cage vs Namor is a joke. Also more times than not(not saying every time), Namor doesnt struggle much with Thing. The fights are usually somewhat competitive because for one,they have crazy history and secondly, Thing isnt leaps and bounds much weaker than Namor.

He has also been stalemated by Spider-Man five times and Thing by a dozen times.

Neither of this guys should be harmed or bothered not even by a high velocity bullets as both of them can withstand the pressures at bottom of the ocean with out a problem.
Seems to me that on land they are pretty even on strength, that might change under water though.
What does the aquaman or namor experts say?

Aquaman gets no strength boost in water. The only thing he ever got out of it was regeneration, healing, and he tends to have better mobility then most characters.
Aquaman never really states he's stronger in water maybe more powerful given stuff like regeneration, healing, mobility, and sea creatures but that's it. In terms of Strength he suggest he's stronger and Quicker on land several times, and I'd assume Durability should be the same regardless of environment.
Even Pre-Crisis when he had that 1 hour weakness he didn't really get weaker on land till he started freaking out at the 59 mark or something and that weakness went away After Pre-Crisis. Referenced some Post-Crisis as a joke.
Namor tends to comment a lot on how his strength is unmatched under the sea though so he might have a big boost underwater.

I'm confused because it clearly shows him being shot with bullets and them drawing blood. It's not like Aquaman started crying or yelled "ouch" but they clearly hurt him. I'm thinking Namor wouldn't even notice gunfire.

It's irrelevant to the strength topic. Sure bullets can scratch the surface of his skin but it does nothing to the actual muscle itself which is said to be 10 times that of a Human. I believe the typical Asgardian muscle density is 3 times of a human.
Wonder Woman has been harmed by bullets more then New52 Aquaman or Namor by personal feats though she's stronger then either.
Regardless Aquaman has better durability to heat based attacks like heat vision then Namor.
Side note: Pretty much every single version of Aquaman should be turned into the version from the Batman Brave and the Bold cartoon, it would be awesome.

I like the beard but I prefer the Regal and Darker versions I wouldn't mind if Aquaman got drunk on Sea rum and started acting like Brave and The Bold version.

Yes, but the comment I was quoting seemed to be ignoring that the scan was indeed showing a difference between Namor and Aquaman in how they'd handle those attacks.
But yes it doesn't show anything in regards to who is physically stronger.
For which I still stand by saying that current Aquaman is probably a lot closer to Namor then past versions.

Aquaman was great in that show.
I pretty much liked every character in Brave and Bold, even characters I generally don't like at all, like Batman himself. lol
