Duration: 16:14

This video features a dramatic test of a Punt Gun against thick bulletproof glass, captured at 200,000 FPS by The Slow Mo Guys. The Punt Gun, loaded with a 1lb lead ball, successfully shattered the glass. A subsequent test using four 4-bore bullets showed the glass resisting some impacts, highlighting the difference between single large projectiles and multiple smaller ones against extreme ballistic protection.

Quick Summary

A Punt Gun loaded with a 1lb lead ball was fired at 1.75-2 inch thick bulletproof glass, successfully penetrating it. The test, captured at 200,000 FPS by The Slow Mo Guys, also involved a 4-bore buckshot load which partially failed to penetrate.
