This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Spanish Morion helmet against various projectiles, including a crossbow bolt, .20 gauge hunting lead, 9mm, .223 Remington, 7.62x39mm, and .50 BMG. The helmet demonstrates some deflection capabilities due to its angled surfaces, but is ultimately penetrated by several calibers, notably the 9mm and rifle rounds. The test highlights the limitations of historical armor against modern firearms.

Quick Summary

A Spanish Morion helmet was tested for ballistic resistance against various projectiles. While it could deflect a crossbow bolt, it was penetrated by 9mm, .223 Remington, and 7.62x39mm rounds, demonstrating its inadequacy against modern firearms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a Spanish Morion helmet stop bullets?

A Spanish Morion helmet offers some deflection due to its angled design but is not bulletproof against modern firearms. It was penetrated by 9mm, .223 Remington, and 7.62x39mm rounds in testing, though it could deflect a crossbow bolt.

What calibers were tested against the Spanish Morion helmet?

The Spanish Morion helmet was tested against a crossbow bolt, .20 gauge hunting lead, 9mm, .223 Remington, 7.62x39mm, and .50 BMG. The 9mm and rifle rounds penetrated the helmet.

How does the Spanish Morion helmet compare to other historical armor in ballistic tests?

Compared to a 'pig face' helmet designed with a cone to deflect 9mm rounds, the Spanish Morion helmet showed less resistance to 9mm. This suggests specific design features in historical armor could offer varied levels of protection.

Is historical armor effective against modern firearms?

Generally, historical armor like the Spanish Morion helmet is not effective against modern firearms. While it might deflect primitive projectiles, it is easily penetrated by handgun and rifle calibers, offering minimal to no protection.
