Glock 20 (10mm) with KKM 6 inch barrel

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test of Hornady Black 10mm 155gr XTP ammunition, conducted by the Tools&Targets host. The test evaluates performance through a heavy clothing barrier using both a Glock 29 (3.8" barrel) and a Glock 20 (4.6" barrel). While the ammunition demonstrated good expansion and weight retention, the measured velocities were significantly lower than advertised, leading to a critical assessment of its true 10mm performance.

This video compares the terminal ballistics of 10mm Auto and .357 Magnum by firing them into a frozen lake. The visual evidence suggests the .357 Magnum created a slightly larger and deeper impact crater in the ice, indicating potentially greater energy transfer in this specific test. The presenter, Mr. Madness, demonstrates a casual yet experimental approach to caliber comparison.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics pits the 10mm Auto against the .357 Magnum in a ballistic gel test. Both calibers, using 180-grain JHP (10mm) and 125-grain JHP (.357 Magnum) respectively, demonstrated full penetration through a 16-inch Clear Ballistics gel block. The comparison highlights the raw power of both cartridges, leaving the age-old debate unsettled.

This video provides a practical, on-range comparison of 10mm pistol recoil, specifically evaluating the effectiveness of a compensator. Firing the same potent 165gr V-Crown Max Charge LongShot ammunition across three distinct platforms—a Glock 29, an M&P Carry Comp, and a Springfield XDM—the demonstration aims to quantify the felt recoil reduction offered by a compensated firearm. The expert handling and comparative setup suggest a focus on real-world performance insights for 10mm enthusiasts.

This review of the Kimber DS Warrior 10mm highlights its position as a more affordable double-stack 1911 alternative. Key features include an excellent Kimber trigger, carbon fiber infused grips, KimPro II finish, and an optics-ready slide with an RMR plate. The pistol is chambered in 10mm with a 15-round capacity, tall serrated black rear sights, a tritium front dot, and a Picatinny rail. The MSRP is noted at $1300.

This review of the Smith & Wesson 500 Magnum highlights its immense power, comparing its perceived recoil and size to a Glock 20. The speaker, demonstrating significant firearms expertise, notes the revolver's substantial weight and the fatigue it can induce during extended range sessions. The video also touches on ammunition differences and the subjective nature of trigger feel.

This video explores the AirForce Texan SS, a suppressed .45 caliber big bore air rifle, and the Sam Yang Dragon Claw .50 caliber air rifle. It highlights how these powerful airguns, despite their significant energy output (around 500 ft-lbs for the Texan SS), are not legally classified as firearms, allowing their integrated suppressors to bypass NFA regulations. The review includes sound comparisons, accuracy tests at 100 yards, and penetration demonstrations, showcasing their surprising effectiveness.

This video features former Special Operations sniper Nicholas 'The Reaper' Irving demonstrating various firearms and sharing combat insights. Key takeaways include the performance of the Barrett M107A1 and SR-25, the extreme recoil of the S&W 500 Magnum, and the effectiveness of .50 BMG rounds against an engine block. Irving's expertise as a decorated sniper significantly enhances the technical depth of the content.

This expert guide details the dangerous consequences of firing incorrect calibers in handguns, as demonstrated by firearms instructor Matt Carriker. It covers firing .380 ACP in a 9mm, 9mm in a .40 S&W, and .223 Remington in a .40 S&W, highlighting malfunctions like failure to cycle, bulged casings, and blown-out necks due to improper headspacing and lack of chamber support. The video emphasizes the critical importance of using the correct ammunition for firearm safety and function.

This review by Demolition Ranch tests the ballistic resistance of Flex Tape against various firearms, including the FN PS90 and CZ Scorpion. The experiment demonstrates that even significant layers of Flex Tape are easily penetrated by common calibers, highlighting the limitations of improvised ballistic materials. The video features expert handling and detailed explanations of firearm mechanics and ballistics.
