Mark Serbu, a gun designer and enthusiast, shares his experiences at the SAR West Gun Show in Phoenix, Arizona. He highlights unique firearms like the Panzerbüchse 39, Hamilton Model 15, and a rare Winchester M1 Carbine, while also discussing his own Serbu BFG-50A production and the value of attending physical gun shows for discovery and networking.

This video showcases a custom-built 'Frankenstein' helmet, inspired by Iron Man, designed to withstand high-caliber rounds. Initial testing with an FN SCAR 17 firing 7.62x51mm rounds demonstrated the helmet's ability to deflect the projectile with only superficial damage. However, a subsequent test with a Serbu BFG-50A firing a .50 BMG API round resulted in the complete destruction of the helmet, highlighting the limitations of AR500 steel against such powerful ammunition.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics, featuring Scott, delves into the kinetic impact of various firearms on a specialized punching machine equipped with ceramic body armor plates. The experiment highlights how different calibers and projectile types transfer energy, with heavier rounds like the .50 BMG and .338 Lapua demonstrating significantly more 'punch' than standard rifle calibers. The high-energy, experimental approach provides unique insights into ballistic energy transfer.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics explores the durability of a Tevlaphee tire boot against various firearms, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. Expert Scott demonstrates safe firearm handling and provides insights into the effectiveness of different calibers in disabling the boot. The experiment culminates in the .50 BMG completely destroying the boot's mechanism.

This video demonstrates a high-risk ballistic experiment using a Serbu BFG-50A .50 BMG rifle to detonate gasoline, oxygen, and acetylene mixtures. The channel's host, Edwin Sarkissian, known for his expertise in recreational ballistics, showcases the destructive power of .50 caliber armor-piercing rounds against volatile targets, resulting in massive fireballs and explosions. The experiment also includes a secondary engagement with an AK-47 for cleanup.

This video features a unique challenge where guest Houston Jones must shoot mystery boxes to win their contents. The challenge utilizes a 'Wheels of Misfortune' system to randomly select firearms (ranging from .50 BMG rifles to 12 Gauge shotguns and .500 Magnum revolvers) and the number of shots required. Expert instructor Scott demonstrates safe firearm handling throughout the process, making it an entertaining yet informative display of ballistic impact on various items.

This video showcases a ballistics test comparing the penetration power of several high-caliber firearms, including revolvers like the Magnum Research BFR, Taurus Raging Hunter, and Smith & Wesson Model 500, against a stack of pumpkins. It also features a Serbu BFG-50A .50 BMG rifle and concludes with an M67 grenade detonation. The expert analysis highlights differences in terminal ballistics based on caliber and ammunition type, demonstrating significant energy dump and penetration capabilities.

This video features Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch conducting extreme ballistic tests on advanced body armor. With high authority in firearms entertainment and destructive testing, he demonstrates the capabilities of Premier Body Armor plates against various high-caliber threats, including .50 BMG ball, API, AP, .408 CheyTac, and .500 Auto Max rounds. The tests highlight the effectiveness of a custom 9-layer composite plate against significant threats, while also showcasing failures with less robust armor and ammunition feeding issues.

Edwin Sarkissian, a high-profile firearms content creator, conducts an experimental test to determine how deep various sniper rifle rounds penetrate hard-packed desert dirt. The video demonstrates safe vertical shooting techniques from an elevated platform and details the recovery process for projectiles fired from calibers ranging from .308 Winchester to .50 BMG. The experiment provides practical insights into the terminal ballistics and penetration capabilities of different sniper rifle systems.

This video features Edwin Sarkissian, a high-profile firearms influencer, conducting an experimental test of various rifle and handgun calibers against a stack of Toyota 4Runner windshields. The experiment provides unique ballistic data, comparing the penetration capabilities of rounds like the .408 CheyTac, .50 BMG, and .500 S&W Magnum against automotive glass. The results offer insights into the extreme long-range capabilities of certain firearms and the effectiveness of different ammunition types.

This video demonstrates the destructive potential of an oxygen tank when subjected to high-powered rifle rounds and explosive ordnance. Edwin Sarkissian, an experienced experimental shooter, showcases the effects of a .50 BMG round and an M67 grenade on a Dodge Dakota truck bed. The experiment highlights the significant damage these items can inflict, even on a vehicle designed for rugged use.

This video showcases a high-energy ballistics experiment conducted by Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrating the effects of shooting pressurized oxygen and acetylene tanks, as well as an M67 grenade, inside a truck bed. The experiment highlights the volatile nature of these materials and the significant structural damage they can cause.
