The Yankee Marshal argues against the common fear of solid copper ammunition over-penetrating in self-defense scenarios. He asserts that high-penetrating rounds are actually safer because they are more effective, increasing the likelihood of stopping a threat with fewer shots, thereby reducing the chance of missing and hitting bystanders. The video emphasizes accuracy and effectiveness over concerns about over-penetration, particularly with handgun rounds.
This live chat session with The Yankee Marshal covers a range of firearms-related topics, including comparisons of popular handgun models like the Beretta 92 Compact and CZ 75 Compact, and the Sig Sauer P229 versus P226. The discussion also delves into ammunition choices for self-defense, such as Corbon DPX and Underwood Extreme Penetrator rounds, and touches upon firearm modifications like barrel crowning. The Marshal also offers insights into firearm maintenance, legal interpretations of gun rights, and personal preferences for various firearm platforms.
This video tests the penetration depth of various firearm calibers into solid concrete. The host demonstrates that while pistol rounds have minimal effect, rifle calibers like 5.56mm, 7.62x39mm, and .308 Winchester show increasing penetration, with the .308 achieving the deepest penetration among the tested rifle rounds. An exploding 12-gauge shotgun slug is also tested, demonstrating significant surface destruction but shallow penetration. The video concludes by testing the cumulative effect of 19 rounds of 7.62x39mm on a concrete block, which penetrates about halfway.
This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Level 3A body armor vest from SafeVest against various handgun and shotgun calibers, including some high-velocity rounds. The instructor demonstrates the vest's ability to stop standard rounds like 9mm, 40 S&W, 357 SIG, 10mm, and 44 Magnum. It also tests specialized ammunition like 'Devastator' 9mm rounds and 12 gauge slugs, with surprising results against 22 TCM and 10mm extreme penetrators. The testing methodology involves shooting the vest at close range and observing for pass-throughs and deformation.
This video from Edwin Sarkissian provides a unique ballistic test, evaluating how many Apple MacBook Pro laptops are required to stop various calibers of bullets, ranging from 9mm to .50 BMG. The experiment highlights the significant penetration power differences between calibers and ammunition types, offering a visual demonstration of terminal ballistics. Sarkissian's enthusiastic approach and clear explanations make complex ballistics accessible.
This video demonstrates a destructive test where a Glock 19 firing 9mm Underwood Extreme Penetrator ammunition is used to shoot Axe body spray cans. The experiment, conducted by firearms enthusiast Edwin Sarkissian, highlights the explosive potential when flammable aerosols are ignited and impacted by a projectile.
