How Loud Are These Blanks?

This guide details the assembly and deployment of a reusable 12 gauge flashbang from Ghost Firearms Training LLC. It covers the disassembly of the device, loading a 12 gauge blank, reassembly, and safe deployment in tactical training scenarios. The video demonstrates the flashbang's effectiveness in disorienting targets with sound and smoke, followed by tactical movement.

This video from Civilian Tactical tests the effectiveness of the YHM Victra 12 gauge shotgun suppressor with birdshot, buckshot, and slugs. The instructor demonstrates significant sound reduction across all ammunition types, noting the most pronounced difference with buckshot. The conclusion suggests birdshot or slower buckshot are ideal for achieving the quietest suppressed 12 gauge loads.

This video provides a practical demonstration of how different types of 12 Gauge shotgun ammunition perform acoustically when fired through a YHM Victra 12 suppressor. The instructor highlights that buckshot and fine shot offer the most significant sound reduction compared to slugs, with buckshot showing the greatest difference. This information is valuable for understanding suppressor effectiveness with various shotgun loads.

This video showcases a unique, viewer-made 12-gauge 'Anti-Werewolf' shotshell loaded with actual silver shot. The host, TheYankeeMarshal, highlights the custom nature of the round and its thematic purpose. The segment also promotes a charity drawing for a similar shell, benefiting 'Pets and Pits', with donation tiers offering multiple entries.

This video provides an expert-level overview of the Mossberg 590R shotgun, specifically highlighting its configuration with a Chisel folding stock. The instructor, demonstrating significant expertise, details the stock's features, the shotgun's ergonomics, controls, sights, and barrel specifications.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, against a tree. Surprisingly, even the powerful .50 BMG round failed to penetrate the tree completely, demonstrating the significant stopping power of natural barriers against firearms.

This video explores the hypothetical concept of using a human body as a suppressor, simulating the scenario with ballistic gel. A Derya Arms .22 rifle is fired into a ballistic gel head, with the host noting the shot sounded 'dead silent'. The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head.

This test evaluates the ballistic protection of a Belgian M1 steel helmet against various calibers. While it stopped birdshot, .22, and .380 Auto rounds, it failed to defeat 9mm and .223 Remington rounds, indicating it is not suitable for protection against common handgun or rifle threats.
