This video tests the ballistic resistance of RTS Tactical AR500 steel armor plates against various calibers, culminating in a .50 BMG round. Handgun rounds and intermediate rifle calibers like 5.56mm and 7.62x51mm failed to penetrate, causing only minor surface deformation. However, a .50 BMG APIT round easily penetrated two stacked plates and a cinder block, demonstrating the limits of Level III+ armor against heavy machine gun rounds.

This video tests the limits of Level 4 body armor against a .50 caliber round. While stacking multiple plates could stop a standard FMJ round, the impact force was likely lethal. Specialized Raufoss rounds, with their explosive and incendiary properties, completely defeated even stacked armor, destroying the test dummy.

This video tests how many cast iron skillets are needed to stop various bullets, from .22 LR to 500 S&W Magnum. Most common handgun rounds like 9mm and .45 ACP are stopped by two skillets. Rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62x39mm also require two to three skillets, while the powerful 500 S&W Magnum penetrates three and is stopped by the fourth. The .22 LR failed to penetrate even the first skillet.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a .50 BMG rifle, specifically the Serbu BFG-50A, against a section of railroad track. Various .50 caliber rounds, including Raufoss Mk 211 API and silver tip API, were fired. While the rifle and ammunition demonstrated the ability to penetrate even the thickest parts of the rail (over 1.5 inches), bullet deflection and shifting upon impact with the dense steel were observed.

This video demonstrates launching an M67 fragmentation grenade using an X Products Can Cannon towards a distant frozen lake. The Can Cannon, firing .223 blanks, successfully propels the grenade, which detonates upon impact, creating a visible hole in the ice. The experiment highlights the launcher's capability for extreme projectile delivery in challenging outdoor conditions.

This video tests the destructive power of a .50 caliber spotter round against 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass, comparing it to a standard FMJ round. The spotter round, designed to spark and flash, created a larger crater and more surface damage than the FMJ round, demonstrating its specialized impact characteristics. The Serbu BFG-50A rifle was used for both tests.
