This "Blast Off Mondays" episode from Tactical Hyve features a ballistics test of 300 Blackout 147-grain supersonic ammunition fired from a 12-inch barrel with a 4-inch compensator. The test aimed to determine penetration depth through ceramic tiles, revealing the round's capabilities and limitations at close range.
Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrating high expertise, conducts a practical ballistics test comparing the Glock 42 (.380 ACP) and Glock 43 (9mm) by shooting through ceramic tiles. Both single-stack pistols, popular for concealed carry, were tested with hollow-point ammunition. The results showed surprisingly similar penetration capabilities against the tile barrier, with both calibers penetrating three tiles. This test provides valuable insight into the real-world performance of common self-defense rounds in compact firearms.
