This video demonstrates the distinct auditory experience of being fired upon by AR-15 and AK-47 rifles from 400 yards. It highlights the difference between the supersonic crack of rounds passing nearby and the delayed impact sounds. The content is presented by CajunBoyJake, who uses objective testing methods to illustrate ballistic phenomena.
This analysis breaks down the distinct sounds of gunshots heard during an event, differentiating between the supersonic crack of the bullet and the muzzle blast. It examines rapid-fire sequences and the acoustic signature of a final shot, suggesting it was return fire directed away from the source. The video highlights how audio analysis can provide insights into firearm events, even with limited visual information.
This video from Edwin Sarkissian's channel features an expert-level demonstration of the auditory experience of incoming fire from an M60, AK-47, and AR-15 on a desert range. The experiment, conducted with engineer Mark Serbu and gun designer Richie, focuses on recording the sound of bullets passing by and impacting concrete cover from the perspective of someone under fire, highlighting the distinct sonic characteristics of each weapon system. The high-energy, informative tone, coupled with the presence of industry professionals, underscores the advanced nature of this demonstration.
This video explores the audible effects of bullets fired at a significant distance, specifically 500 yards. The creator uses a 6.5 Creedmoor rifle to engage two different targets: a 12" square of 1/4" aluminum and a 10" AR 500 steel gong. The primary focus is to capture and analyze the distinct 'crack' sound of the bullet in flight as heard in real-time, aiming to demystify common perceptions of bullet acoustics.
Garand Thumb and guests conduct an experiment to record the sound of bullets passing overhead at various distances, from 230 to 1000 yards. The video details the safety setup, the distinct sounds of subsonic versus supersonic rounds, and how factors like distance and projectile stability affect the audible report. It features a wide array of firearms, from handguns to anti-materiel rifles, offering insights into ballistic acoustics.
Hickok45 demonstrates the effectiveness of the Banish 45 suppressor on an MP5 by testing different 9mm ammunition weights. He highlights that 150-grain subsonic rounds significantly reduce the sound signature compared to 115 and 124-grain supersonic loads, which still produce a noticeable crack. The video emphasizes the importance of choosing the right ammunition for optimal suppressed performance.
