This review tests the durability and reliability of the $6 AC Unity Glock magazine. Despite its low cost, the magazine withstands initial drop tests and extreme abuse, including being struck against a rock, while still functioning in a Glock pistol. While not matching OEM quality, it's deemed suitable for range use.

This review thoroughly tests the durability and reliability of AC Unity's $6 Glock magazines. The speaker, demonstrating practical knowledge, subjects the all-polymer magazines to rigorous abuse, including drops in dirt, impacts on steel, and being stepped on. Despite their budget price and lack of metal inserts, the AC Unity magazines perform surprisingly well in live-fire tests, making them a viable option for range use or as backup magazines.

This video demonstrates the proper technique for loading the M1 Garand to prevent 'Garand Thumb'. It emphasizes maintaining downward pressure on the top round to control the bolt's cycling. The content debunks the idea that 'Garand Thumb' is inevitable, attributing it to inexperience and improper handling.

The Altyn helmet, a Russian titanium model, is tested for its ballistic capabilities. While effective against 9mm NATO and 00 buckshot, it fails to stop rifle rounds like 5.56x45mm and .308 Winchester. The visor cracks under birdshot impact. Despite its historical reputation, its extreme weight and lack of rifle protection make it outdated compared to modern composite helmets.

This ballistic test by Garand Thumb reveals that NIJ Level 3A rated ballistic masks, while stopping some projectiles, fail to adequately protect the wearer due to extreme backface deformation. Hits from a .44 Magnum caused fatal deformation, and rifle rounds completely penetrated. The conclusion is that these masks are largely ineffective and potentially dangerous, recommending helmets and proper training instead.

This video delves into the notorious 'Garand Thumb' phenomenon, explaining its mechanics and pain level through direct testing. It covers the M1 Garand's history, technical specifications, and proper loading techniques to avoid injury, including the 'bladed hand' method. The content also features novice testing and concludes with advice on training and firearm ownership.
