This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Level 10 Masterlock against various calibers. Surprisingly, even powerful rounds like 9mm, .45 ACP, and .44 Magnum only cause minor dents. A 5.56 green tip round significantly deforms the lock but doesn't penetrate, and a 12-gauge slug creates a large crater but leaves the lock functional and closed.
This video tests the durability of Masterlock M175 combination padlocks against various firearm calibers. While .22LR, 9mm, and .45 ACP rounds caused damage, the locks remained functional. An AR-15 inflicted significant damage, but the lock stayed secured. Only a 12-gauge shotgun slug was able to destroy the lock and release the shackle.
This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Masterlock against various firearm calibers. A .22 LR from a Ruger 10/22 caused minor damage, while a 9mm from a Glock 19 and a .45 ACP from a 1911 failed to penetrate significantly, leaving the lock functional. A 12 gauge slug, however, completely destroyed the lock.
This YouTube video from TheFireArmGuy tests the durability of a Masterlock when subjected to gunfire from a 9mm handgun. While the lock was unlatched by the first shot, the description indicates it was surprisingly difficult to completely destroy, requiring multiple shots. The video promises to reveal the exact number of shots needed for total destruction, showcasing a test of firearm versus security hardware. The creator also promotes their various YouTube playlists covering handgun reviews, rifle/shotgun reviews, Second Amendment content, gear reviews, and range tests, along with their Twitter handle.
