This video details the evolution of Yugoslavian AK-style rifles, starting with the M70 in 7.62x39mm. It then covers the M80, Zastava's first foray into 5.56 caliber AKs, before returning to the M90 series which incorporated M70 features. The progression culminated in the M92, a Krinkov-style short-barreled rifle.

This video compares the steel penetration capabilities of 5.56x45mm M193 and 7.62x51mm M80 ammunition. While both calibers penetrated 1/4" and 3/8" mild steel, neither fully penetrated 1/2" mild steel with standard FMJ rounds. The M855A1 round, however, cleanly penetrated the 1/2" steel, demonstrating superior performance. The test highlights velocity's significant role in steel penetration, with 5.56 achieving 84% of 7.62's impact depth on 1/2" steel despite lower kinetic energy.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of Shot Stop's SSB-III-RA2 backpack armor panel, which is NIJ Level III rated, against M855 and M855A1 rounds. The test investigates whether common items like a book or laptop placed in front of the polyethylene armor can increase its protection against these specific rifle rounds, particularly M855A1, which is not typically stopped by UHMWPE plates. A Phantom v642 High-Speed Camera is used for detailed analysis of the impact.

The Desert Tech MDR has undergone significant reliability upgrades, including a redesigned gas system with six ports, a stronger hammer spring, and a wider extractor. Live fire testing with M80 ball ammunition demonstrated 100% reliability across multiple magazines and configurations. The rifle is now considered a top-tier .308 bullpup, with Desert Tech offering these improvements as a free warranty service.
