This video from Civilian Tactical tests the 'bulletproof' nature of a mini anvil against various calibers, from Birdshot to .308. The host, demonstrating high engagement and access to tactical gear, shows how each round impacts the anvil, causing significant damage, cratering, and material removal. The experiment concludes that while the anvil might stop rounds, it is progressively destroyed.

Quick Summary

A mini anvil was subjected to ballistic testing with calibers ranging from Birdshot to .308. While it sustained impacts, rounds like .223 and .308 caused significant cratering and removed large chunks of metal, proving the anvil is not bulletproof and is progressively destroyed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers were used to test the mini anvil's durability?

The mini anvil was tested against a range of calibers including Birdshot, .22 LR, .380 Auto, 9mm, .223, 7.62x39, and .308. Each caliber demonstrated a different level of destructive impact on the anvil.

How did the different calibers affect the mini anvil?

Birdshot and .22 LR caused dents and craters. Handgun rounds like .380 Auto and 9mm caused fusion and displacement. Rifle rounds like .223, 7.62x39, and .308 removed significant chunks and created massive craters, progressively destroying the anvil.

What firearms were used in the anvil ballistic test?

The test utilized firearms such as the Henry Mare's Leg (Birdshot), Standard Manufacturing G4S (.22 LR), a Kel-Tec (.380 Auto), Canik Mete SFT (9mm), Anderson Manufacturing Dissipator (.223), Riley Defense AK-47 (7.62x39), and Leviathan Defense Helmo (.308).

Can a mini anvil be considered bulletproof?

No, a mini anvil cannot be considered bulletproof. While it may stop or deflect some rounds, repeated impacts from various calibers, especially rifle rounds, cause significant damage, cratering, and material removal, ultimately destroying it piece by piece.
