Frequently Asked Questions

Can a car door stop a 22 Long Rifle bullet?

No, a 22 Long Rifle bullet will pass straight through a standard car door. The video demonstrates that the 22 LR easily penetrates the door, exiting the other side with no significant resistance.

What about a 9mm round and a car door?

A 9mm round will also penetrate a car door. The test shows that 9mm rounds easily pass through the door, creating exit wounds on the opposite side. Multiple shots further confirm the lack of significant stopping power.

Does a 44 Magnum stop in a car door?

No, a 44 Magnum round will not stop in a car door. The test shows a significantly larger hole created by the 44 Magnum compared to smaller calibers, and it also exits the door.

Will Double O Buckshot stop in a car door?

While Double O Buckshot may not fully penetrate a car door, most pellets will pass through the front side. It's unlikely that all pellets will be stopped by the door's material, with some potentially exiting.
