Videos tagged with Bulletproof Glass Testing

This video documents a dangerous experiment where individuals from Top Guns test the ballistic resistance of approximately 1-inch thick bulletproof glass against various calibers, including 9mm, 5.56x45mm, .50 AE, and .50 BMG. The test is repeated with reinforced glass up to two inches thick. The results highlight the significant differences in penetration capabilities between calibers and the surprising resilience and destructive potential of certain rounds against armored materials. The presenters emphasize that this is not a safe or recommended activity.

This video details a comprehensive test of various firearms against a homemade 4-inch thick bulletproof glass. Featuring Matt Carriker and WhistlinDiesel, the test includes firearms like the Hi Point 10mm Carbine, Desert Eagle .50 AE, AK-47, and a Barrett M82A1. The assessment covers firearm reliability, projectile impact, and the destructive potential of specialized ammunition, culminating in the discovery of a suppressor baffle strike.

This video features an expert-level comparison of various 12-gauge shotgun slugs, including the Aguila Mini Slug, Remington Slugger, Tomahawk Mirage, DDupleks Broadhead, Lightfield Boar Buster, and Federal TruBall. The host, a high-level firearms enthusiast, uses a Benelli SuperNova shotgun and specialized testing materials like ballistics gel and bulletproof glass to evaluate slug performance, recoil, and terminal ballistics. The Federal TruBall is identified as the top performer due to its significant wound cavity in ballistics gel.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a piece of bulletproof glass against various firearms. The presenter, an experienced shooter, demonstrates how the glass handles impacts from handguns (.22 LR, 9mm, .45 ACP), buckshot, a 12-gauge slug, and rifle rounds (7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm M855). The glass shows impressive containment of handgun rounds and buckshot, stopping them without significant shattering, but is penetrated by rifle calibers. The presenter notes the glass's ability to contain impacts without widespread fragmentation is a key advantage over previous materials tested.

This video features an expert-level demonstration of a Serbu BFG-50A .50 BMG rifle's capability against thick, layered military tank viewfinder glass. The experiment, conducted by Edwin Sarkissian, shows the glass resisting the initial two rounds but failing after subsequent shots, highlighting the cumulative effect of sustained fire on armor. The demonstration underscores the effectiveness of .50 caliber rounds against substantial ballistic protection.
