This video details a tactical assessment of anti-vehicle weaponry, featuring the Panzerfaust 3, RPG-7, and Mark 19 grenade launcher. The 1911 Syndicate crew, demonstrating high authority in tactical content, travels to Kurdistan to test these systems against a target vehicle. The assessment includes weapon operation, firing, and a detailed analysis of the resulting damage, highlighting the real-world effects of high-velocity kinetic and explosive forces.

This video tests the myth of water being bulletproof by firing various firearms, from 9mm handguns to a .50 BMG rifle, into a water tank. Results show that even high-powered rounds like the .50 BMG are significantly slowed or stopped by water, failing to penetrate to the target. The tests demonstrate water's effectiveness in dissipating projectile energy.

This guide details an experimental test conducted by Kentucky Ballistics, demonstrating the immense power of a custom 9-foot, 150 lb punt gun named 'Fury'. The test involves firing various projectiles, including a 1 lb lead ball with over 30,000 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, into a 5,000-gallon swimming pool to analyze its ballistic performance against a significant water barrier. The video showcases expert handling of a custom large-bore firearm and detailed analysis of kinetic energy and projectile impact.

This video provides an expert look at specialty ammunition, including the Holey S Ranch S.O.B. 12-gauge round and G2 RIP 9mm rounds. The host, a high-level firearms enthusiast, demonstrates their performance through kinetic energy tests, water jug destruction, and detailed ballistics gel analysis, showcasing projectile mechanics and fragmentation patterns.

This guide details the disassembly of a 105mm M735 APFSDS-T round, as demonstrated by Ordnance. It covers identifying markings, separating the sabot from the casing, and dismantling the sabot petals to reveal the penetrator rod. The process highlights the kinetic energy principles behind this advanced anti-armor ammunition.

This video provides a first look at the Athlon Rangecraft Velocity Pro Chronograph, unveiled at Shot Show 2025. The presenter highlights its intuitive interface, easy shot deletion, and quick access to various ballistic metrics like extreme spread, deviation, kinetic energy, and power factor.
