Hollywood Doesn’t Know Guns
This video tests common household objects and vehicle components as ballistic cover against various calibers, including .22LR, 9mm, .223 Remington, 300 Blackout, and 12 gauge buckshot. The findings demonstrate that most everyday items offer only concealment, not true ballistic cover, with only specific vehicle doors showing some effectiveness against certain rounds. The experiment highlights the significant difference between cinematic portrayals of gunfights and real-world ballistics.
