This video demonstrates the ballistic resistance of Devtac Ronin armored helmets against various threats, including 12-gauge birdshot, .22 LR rounds from a suppressed rifle, a .50 AE Desert Eagle, and full-auto 9mm fire from a modified Glock 17. The helmets show significant durability, stopping projectiles from penetrating, though some sustain surface damage and energy transfer effects. The testing is conducted by Edwin Sarkissian, a high-profile firearms influencer and gear tester, showcasing expert handling and knowledge of ballistic armor and firearms.
