This video tests a 100-year-old, 1000lb bank safe against various firearms, culminating in a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While handguns and smaller rifle calibers failed to penetrate, a 12-gauge slug and 5.56/.308 rounds showed significant impact, with the slug jamming the mechanism. Ultimately, the .50 BMG sniper rifle easily defeated the safe's defenses, penetrating both doors.
This video tests the penetration capabilities of various high-caliber firearms against a 100-year-old WWI safe. Despite attempts with 9mm, .50 AE, .500 Magnum, .308 AP, and .416 Barrett rounds, none fully breached the safe's thick steel construction. Even a .50 BMG Silver Tip API round caused significant internal damage but failed to exit the rear.
