This video demonstrates the use of a Breach and Rescue Bar (BRB) against laminate automotive glass. It highlights two primary techniques for breaching: serrating the glass like a steak knife and scoring the glass to weaken it prior to serration. The demonstration emphasizes how the BRB's weight aids in penetration and how to effectively use its edge for rapid glass removal.

This video from Garand Thumb provides an expert analysis of firearm projectile performance through automobile glass, a critical skill for urban survival. Mike (Garand Thumb), a recognized subject matter expert with a background in Special Warfare, details the physics of glass types, the 'cone of deflection,' and how various calibers and ammunition types (5.56 NATO, 7.62x39mm, .308 Winchester, 12 Gauge slugs) perform against these barriers. The instruction emphasizes empirical testing and practical application for self-defense scenarios.

This guide details a practical experiment to test the ballistic resistance of bulletproof glass against various common firearm calibers, from .22 LR to a 12-gauge slug. The experiment, conducted by the Yee Yee Life host, demonstrates that while the glass can withstand handgun rounds, it is ultimately penetrated by a shotgun slug. Proper firearm handling and safety protocols are emphasized throughout.

This YouTube video conducts a range test to evaluate the effects of .22LR ammunition impacting a truck windshield. The video aims to demonstrate what happens when this specific caliber is fired at a common automotive glass, providing a visual and practical assessment of its penetration capabilities in this scenario. It encourages viewers to subscribe and links to various playlists covering handgun reviews, long gun reviews, Second Amendment content, gear reviews, and more range tests.

This video demonstrates shooting through vehicle glass using an EDC setup, featuring Jerry Miculek. It highlights the significant bullet deflection caused by windshields and the shattering effect of side windows. The session emphasizes safety gear and understanding ballistic behavior when engaging targets from within a vehicle.

This video from 1ShotTV tests the performance of Fort Scott Munitions' 115gr 9mm T.U.I. ammunition. The test involves firing the rounds through barriers such as glass, wood, and metal before impacting Clear Ballistics 20% Ballistics Gel. The firearm used is a Glock 17. The creator explicitly states this is not a scientific test but for fun and experimental purposes. The video also includes a request for channel support via Patreon.

This analysis from Active Self Protection, featuring John Correia, breaks down a critical incident where a lone officer confronted five armed robbers. It highlights crucial lessons on engaging multiple threats, the risks of intervention, and the complex effects of barriers like glass on bullet performance. The expert breakdown emphasizes evidence-based training and tactical decision-making under extreme duress.

This video from Active Self Protection, featuring John Correia, analyzes a carjacking attempt thwarted by an armed victim. It highlights the critical vulnerability of transitional spaces and emphasizes immediate, decisive action with a firearm, followed by rapid egress from the threat area. The analysis includes reaction time and the challenges of shooting through vehicle glass.

This segment from Gun Talk S2, Episode 9, Part 2, features Jeff Hoffman of Black Hills Ammunition demonstrating the performance of their 308 Winchester ammunition. The video highlights testing of ammunition's ability to penetrate glass barriers and its performance in ballistic gelatin, showcasing the effectiveness of their 180-grain Nosler AccuBond bullet for tactical and hunting applications. The discussion emphasizes the importance of bullet construction for maintaining integrity after barrier penetration.
