This video tests the effectiveness of various firearms in removing a Tevlaphee tire boot from a Ford F-150. While 9mm, 10mm, and 10 Gauge shotgun rounds failed to dislodge the boot, multiple shots from a 300 Win Mag Nemo Arms Nightmare rifle eventually broke the boot's locking mechanism. The experiment highlights the durability of tire boots against common handgun and shotgun calibers, requiring significant rifle power to overcome.
This experiment tests the durability of a Tevlaphee tire boot against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers caused only superficial damage, even powerful rounds like the .500 Magnum and 10 Gauge shotgun failed to dislodge the boot. It took a .300 Win Mag to damage the internal rod and a .50 BMG to completely destroy the mechanism, proving the boot's robust design.
This experiment tests the effectiveness of firearms in removing a vehicle tire boot. While a .45 ACP pistol successfully breached the boot's main bolt, subsequent attempts with an AK-47 not only destroyed the boot but also damaged the tire and radiator, rendering the vehicle inoperable. The conclusion is that while possible, shooting off a boot is highly likely to cause tire damage and further mechanical failure.
