Duration: 21:55

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a vending machine against various firearms, culminating in an M67 grenade detonation. While smaller calibers like .50 AE, 5.56mm, and 7.62x39mm failed to penetrate, the .408 CheyTac round successfully exited the machine. The Barrett M82, surprisingly, caused significant damage but didn't consistently exit. The grenade test resulted in complete destruction.

Quick Summary

The CheyTac M200 Intervention firing .408 CheyTac successfully penetrated the vending machine, being the only firearm caliber tested to exit the rear. The M67 grenade test resulted in complete destruction.

Frequently Asked Questions

What was the most powerful firearm caliber that failed to penetrate the vending machine?

The Barrett M82 firing .50 BMG ammunition caused significant internal damage and bulging to the vending machine, but surprisingly, the rounds did not consistently exit the rear like the smaller .408 CheyTac round did.

Which caliber successfully penetrated the vending machine?

The CheyTac M200 Intervention, chambered in .408 CheyTac, was the only firearm tested that successfully penetrated all internal layers and exited the back of the vending machine.

What happened when an M67 grenade was tossed into the vending machine?

The M67 fragmentation grenade detonated inside the vending machine's dispenser, completely shredding the unit and scattering debris, soda cans, and internal components across the desert landscape.

How did the vending machine's construction affect ballistic testing?

The vending machine featured numerous internal steel panels that provided substantial ballistic protection, stopping multiple rifle calibers. Only the high-velocity .408 CheyTac round managed to achieve full penetration.
