DRYWALL PENATRATION TEST: WHICH CALIBER IS SAFEST

This video provides an in-depth review and ballistic test of the RMA Armament 1165MC Gen 2 NIJ Level IV body armor. The reviewer details the plate's specifications, including its thinness, high purity ceramic composition, multi-curve design, and lightweight construction. Multiple ballistic tests are conducted using various calibers (.30-06, 5.56x45mm, 9mm, .22LR) against a water jug target to assess penetration and backface deformation, demonstrating the armor's protective capabilities.

This guide outlines seven essential firearms for a zombie apocalypse scenario, emphasizing practicality, logistics, and reliability over aesthetics. The selections include a 16-inch AR-15 carbine in 5.56 NATO, a Glock 19 Gen 5 in 9mm, a 12-gauge pump shotgun, a .357 Magnum lever-action rifle, a .357 Magnum revolver, a 9mm PCC, and a suppressed .308 bolt-action rifle. Each choice is justified by its specific advantages in maneuverability, ammunition availability, shootability, and effectiveness in various survival situations.

The speaker re-evaluates the Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC) as a primary rifle choice, concluding that for scenarios requiring engagement beyond close quarters, or where barrier penetration and terminal ballistics are critical, a rifle caliber platform is superior. He emphasizes the need for a rifle's ballistic performance and ability to defeat barriers, especially when considering family safety in uncertain environments.

This video by Sully from Line 45 outlines seven essential calibers gun owners should stockpile in anticipation of future shortages and price spikes. The expert emphasizes the importance of proactive stocking for calibers like .300 Blackout, .308 Winchester, 10mm Auto, 12 Gauge, .22 LR, .223 Remington/5.56 NATO, and 9mm Luger, detailing their specific use cases and current market availability challenges.

This guide, presented by former CIA Officer Jason Hanson, compares the AR-15 and AK-47 for high-tension scenarios. It details the pros and cons of each rifle, including ergonomics, durability, maintenance requirements, and performance in various tests like vehicle penetration. Hanson offers his expert opinion on which rifle is preferable for 'armageddon' situations, emphasizing the importance of maintenance and repair kits for the AR-15 and the rugged reliability of the AK-47.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 100-pound block of lead against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The experiment demonstrates how different rounds interact with soft lead, showing deformation and penetration depths. Notably, the .50 BMG round successfully penetrated the entire lead block and a target behind it, highlighting the extreme power of this caliber.

This guide details how to properly zero a red dot sight on a 9mm handgun, based on expert instruction. It emphasizes understanding mechanical offset and ballistic trajectory. The video advises against zeroing at very close distances like 5 yards, recommending a 15-yard zero for 9mm handguns as it provides a more predictable point of impact at common engagement distances, typically around 50 yards.

This guide details the unique top-loading process for the Kel-Tec P50 pistol using stripper clips, as demonstrated by Shortshot Tony. It covers loading 20 rounds of 5.7x28mm ammunition and highlights the firearm's exceptionally lightweight design and minimal recoil during firing, offering a practical overview for potential users.

This video from SHORTSHOT TONY provides practical advice on defensive target selection, emphasizing aiming for the pelvic girdle rather than the head or center mass when facing threats potentially wearing body armor. The instructor, identified as a firearms enthusiast with practical shooting experience, humorously but directly explains the tactical advantage of targeting the pelvis to immobilize an opponent. The demonstration utilizes a 2011-style pistol equipped with a red dot optic.

SHORTSHOT TONY, an experienced tactical content creator, explains the proper use of red dot sights and iron sights. He emphasizes that co-witnessing is for backup purposes, not simultaneous aiming, and that red dots are parallax-free. Tony advises against aligning the red dot with irons for every shot, suggesting it's a misuse of the optic's capabilities and potentially a waste of money if not utilized correctly.
