This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 20lb cast iron dumbbell against various calibers from .22 to .308. While smaller calibers caused minimal damage, rifle rounds like 5.56 and 7.62x39 created significant gouges and cracks. The .308 round penetrated the first plate but not the second, leading to the conclusion that the dumbbell is effectively bulletproof against these tested rounds. Safety protocols included the use of an RTS Tactical Level 3 shield.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a 20lb cast iron dumbbell bulletproof?

In this test, a 20lb cast iron dumbbell proved highly resistant. While .22 and 9mm rounds caused minimal damage, rifle rounds like 5.56 and 7.62x39 caused significant gouges and cracks. A .308 round penetrated one plate but was stopped by a second, suggesting it's effectively bulletproof against common handgun and some rifle calibers.

What calibers were used to test the dumbbell's bulletproof capabilities?

The test included a range of calibers provided by GunPrime: .22, 9mm, 7.62x39 (from an AK-47), 5.56 (from an AR-15), and .308. The results varied significantly based on the caliber's power and construction.

How did the 5.56 and 7.62x39 rounds affect the dumbbell?

The 5.56 round fired from an AR-15 created a large gouge on the edge of the cast iron dumbbell. The 7.62x39 round from an AK-47 embedded itself into the dumbbell and caused a visible crack on the back, but did not penetrate completely.

What safety measures were in place during the dumbbell ballistic test?

The host used a Level 3 bulletproof shield from RTS Tactical to ensure safety while taking shots from behind cover. This setup allowed for filming the test while maintaining a secure position.
