FPS Armor Piercing Ammo!

This video tests the bullet resistance of a sledgehammer against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. The sledgehammer demonstrates significant resistance, with no caliber achieving a complete pass-through. Notably, even larger calibers like 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO caused significant denting and bullet fragmentation, while the .50 BMG created a substantial divot. The experiment concludes that a sledgehammer is effectively bulletproof against the tested rounds.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers through stacked drywall sheets. It demonstrates how different bullet types and calibers perform against this common building material, offering a practical, albeit unconventional, look at projectile energy transfer and stopping power.

This video tests common household objects and vehicle components as ballistic cover against various calibers including .22 LR, 9mm, .223, 12 gauge, and 300 Blackout. The experiment uses ballistic dummies to determine if objects provide cover (stopping rounds) or concealment (not stopping rounds). Results indicate that most everyday items offer minimal to no effective cover against common firearm calibers, with only certain materials and calibers showing potential to stop rounds.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test comparing the penetration power of various firearms and calibers through a series of candles. The experiment progresses from smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm up to powerful rifle rounds like .50 BMG, showcasing how different projectiles interact with and destroy the wax medium. The results highlight the significant differences in terminal ballistics and energy transfer between various firearm platforms.

This video demonstrates the significant difference in durability between AR500 and AR550 steel target systems when subjected to high-velocity armor-piercing ammunition. The presenter, Brenon from TA Targets, showcases how their 3/8" AR500 Genesis target is easily penetrated by 300 Winchester Magnum AP rounds, while their 1/2" AR550 Exodus target remains undamaged. The content emphasizes that not all steel is created equal and highlights the superior engineering and material science behind TA Targets' premium AR550 systems, positioning them as a long-lasting, reliable investment.

This video details an experimental test to determine how many bricks are required to stop various bullet calibers, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The host, demonstrating familiarity with safe firearm handling and various platforms, tests handguns and rifles, showcasing the significant penetration power of larger calibers like the .50 AE and .50 BMG. The experiment provides a visual demonstration of projectile energy transfer and material resistance.

This video provides an expert-level demonstration of the AA-12 fully automatic shotgun's capabilities, including its extreme durability through water submersion and its unique recoil mitigation system. The presenter, identified as experienced, showcases tactical applications like door breaching with specialized attachments and highlights the weapon's high rate of fire. The demonstration emphasizes the AA-12's robust design and operational reliability under adverse conditions.

FPSRussia showcases the 'Charlene' prototype quadrotor, a weaponized drone featuring a submachine gun and advanced FPV controls. The video details its impressive technical specifications, including speed, altitude, and a self-destruct capability with a significant blast radius. This demonstration highlights the potential future of integrated drone and weapon systems in warfare.

This guide details the operation of the 40mm Bofors Gun, as demonstrated by FPSRussia. It covers identification, ammunition specs (4 lb projectile, 2800 fps), control system operation via electronic toggles, and live-fire techniques including single shots and full-auto bursts. The demonstration highlights the weapon's historical significance and powerful performance against various targets.

This video provides an expert-level overview of the Kriss Vector, a select-fire .45 ACP submachine gun. Experienced instructor Kyle Myers details its innovative recoil mitigation system, which allows for an impressive rate of fire exceeding 1200 RPM and minimal muzzle rise. The demonstration includes testing various .45 ACP ammunition types, such as G2 Research RIP rounds on ballistics gel, and showcases the firearm's compact design and effective two-round burst capability.
