This video tests the ability of 2-liter soda bottles filled with liquid to stop a 9mm projectile. Multiple bottles were stacked and shot to determine penetration depth. The experiment demonstrates that even multiple layers of liquid-filled containers are insufficient to reliably stop a 9mm round, with the projectile penetrating five layers and only deforming the sixth.

This video explores the potential danger of marshmallows when fired from a shotgun, conducting tests for accuracy, impact energy, and lethality. While the primary focus is on a novelty experiment, it touches upon projectile energy and penetration capabilities. The presenter also promotes a giveaway for tactical jackets.

This guide details a ballistic test to determine the stopping power of a concrete highway barrier against various firearm calibers, culminating in a .50 caliber sniper rifle. The test involves progressively larger calibers, documenting impact effects and penetration. The video highlights the effectiveness of suppressed firearms for noise reduction during testing and emphasizes the significant penetration capability of the .50 BMG round, which ultimately breached the barrier.

This video details an extreme torture test of the Wilson Combat EDC X9 2.0 pistol, subjecting it to drops, impacts, sand, and mud immersion. The test aims to evaluate the firearm's durability and reliability under harsh conditions, simulating scenarios where a firearm might become compromised in real-world use. The results indicate the EDC X9 2.0 demonstrates significant resilience, though performance is impacted by extreme contamination.

This video conducts a scientific test to determine how many baseball bats are required to stop various calibers of projectiles. It demonstrates the penetration capabilities of .22, 9mm, 5.56, and .308 rounds against stacked baseball bats, providing visual evidence of damage and penetration.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of three different 9mm rounds (RIP, Hollow Point, FMJ) through 10 lbs of peanut butter. The RIP round and Hollow Point were stopped by the peanut butter, while the FMJ round penetrated multiple jugs, demonstrating varying levels of terminal performance and penetration.

This video tests the lethality of firing Altoids from a shotgun. The experiment involved shooting Altoids at paper targets, water bottles, and a "shrapnel vest" to assess damage and penetration. The results indicated that Altoids are not deadly when fired from a shotgun, with most breaking apart and only one causing minimal penetration.

This video simulates extreme reliability testing by intentionally introducing a viscous 'jam' substance into various handguns, including Glocks, FN 509, Beretta M9A4, Caniks, and Tauruses. The test assesses how these firearms perform under conditions designed to induce malfunctions, such as filling chambers, magazines, and magwells with the substance. The results highlight differences in reliability and the effectiveness of malfunction clearing drills under adverse conditions.

This video showcases a custom full-auto Sig M17 pistol, converted under NFA regulations. Expert shooter Edwin Sarkissian demonstrates its capabilities through a series of rigorous tests, including ballistic gel impacts, vehicle penetration against a Smart car and Range Rover, and durability testing on a vending machine. The content highlights the firearm's rate of fire, projectile effectiveness, and controllability, offering insights valuable to firearms enthusiasts and tactical gear testers.

This video from Civilian Tactical tests the lethality of blowdarts loaded into 12 gauge shotgun shells against a ballistic gel head. The experiment, conducted by a tactical content creator, yielded surprising results showing minimal penetration. The host demonstrates safe firearm handling and proper use of protective gear throughout the test.

This video demonstrates the performance of G2 Research R.I.P. 12-gauge slugs using ballistic gel testing. The test, conducted by 704 Tactical, shows the unique brass projectile impacting a gel face simulating a real-world scenario. The footage highlights the projectile's fragmentation and energy transfer, offering insights into its effectiveness as defensive ammunition.

This YouTube video, titled "VOTE NOW! What Caliber Wins? *BULLETPROOF TEST*", appears to be a comparative test focusing on the effectiveness of different calibers against bulletproof materials. The title explicitly mentions a "bulletproof test" and asks "What Caliber Wins?", indicating a direct comparison. The description reinforces this by mentioning "civtac" (likely civilian tactical) and "demoranch", suggesting a practical, real-world application of ballistic testing. The use of hashtags like #civtac and #gun directly points to the firearms niche. While specific firearms and calibers aren't detailed in the provided information, the core of the content is a test and comparison of calibers in a ballistic resistance scenario.
