This video tests the ballistic penetration capabilities of various common firearm calibers through a simulated solid wood door. The experiment demonstrates that while a .22 Long Rifle round may be stopped, both 9mm FMJ and .45 ACP hollow points can penetrate standard doors. A simulated solid oak door proved more effective at stopping a .45 ACP hollow point.
This video explores the effectiveness of interior doors as either cover or concealment in a home or office scenario, especially during an active shooting situation. Ed Combs from Concealed Carry Magazine conducts a test to demonstrate the protective capabilities of different door types against incoming rounds. The video encourages viewer interaction by asking for opinions on the test and suggestions for future "Cover vs. Concealment" episodes. It also promotes a free gun giveaway and the USCCA community.
