This experiment tests the ballistic resistance of a washing machine and dryer against various firearms, from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Surprisingly, even high-powered rounds like the AR-15's green tip and the .50 AE Desert Eagle were stopped by the washing machine. A 12 gauge slug and the .50 BMG round penetrated the washing machine, but were ultimately stopped by the dryer.

The creator promotes various survival and preparedness products, including coffee, solar power solutions, personal protection gear, body armor, eye protection, medical kits, hearing protection, and long-term food storage, suggesting these are relevant for 'SHTF' scenarios.

This video features a "Blast Off Mondays" segment where Tactical Hyve's founder, Myles, tests the penetration capabilities of an AR-15 firing green tip ammunition against a cooler filled with water from a 25-yard distance. The video also teases a future test involving a GLOCK 19 with 125 gr 9mm rounds against an iron cast skillet. Viewers are encouraged to participate in a drawing by correctly predicting the outcome of the upcoming test, with winners announced the following Monday.

This video details the GBRS Group Level III ICW and GT ballistic plates. The Level III ICW plate, made of polyethylene, is lightweight (2.1 lbs) but requires a soft backer for trauma absorption and does not stop M855 Green Tip rounds. The GT plate, a ceramic/polyethylene hybrid, weighs 3.9 lbs, is 0.75 inches thick, and is specifically designed to defeat M855 Green Tip rounds, successfully stopping seven rounds in testing.

This video features Dave Steinbach, a Subject Matter Expert and retired Army Ranger, testing an AR-15 with 5.56 green tip ammunition against a Level III ballistic plate from 25 yards. The video poses the question of whether the bullet will penetrate the plate, referencing divided opinions from a previous video. It also previews a future test involving a GLOCK 34 and 124-grain FMJ rounds against copy paper. The content aims to engage viewers with predictions and a prize drawing for correct answers.

This video features a "Blast Off Mondays" segment where the SIG SAUER P365 is tested by shooting at a 4-inch thick tree from 20 yards using 124-grain JHP ammunition. The experiment aims to determine if the tree can act as sufficient cover or if the bullet will penetrate. The description also announces the winner of a previous random drawing and teases next week's challenge, which involves shooting a Level III plate with a carbine using 5.56 green tip ammo from 25 yards, with another prize drawing for correct guesses in the comments.

This review tests the Duritium III+ PA body armor plate, highlighting its balance of protection, weight, and cost. While it successfully stops 9mm, 12 gauge slugs, and 5.56 M193, it fails against M855 Green Tip. The plate weighs 2.7 lbs, is 0.7 inches thick, and features a multi-curve design, making it a preferred choice for users not facing specific M855 threats.

This video compares 5.56 M855 'Green Tip' and M193 ammunition, detailing their differences in grain weight, velocity, and projectile construction. M855 uses a 62-grain projectile with a steel penetrator for barrier penetration, while M193 is a faster 55-grain lead round. The content advises against using either for hunting and highlights risks of over-penetration in home defense. It also touches on their performance against steel targets and body armor.
