Laptop vs Bigger and Bigger Guns

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a heavy steel prison door against various firearms, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. The experiment, conducted by Parker, demonstrates that while smaller calibers are stopped by the metal, larger rounds like the .50 AE and .50 BMG can penetrate. The test also includes melee attacks on the door's viewing window.

This entry details the top 5 firearms of all time according to SGM (Ret.) Karl Erickson, a Green Beret with extensive combat experience. The list includes the Ruger 10/22 for its versatility and training potential, the Glock pistol for its reliability, the M-16/AR-15 platform for its customizability, the Barrett .50 Cal for its power, and the M134 Minigun for its sheer firepower. Erickson emphasizes the importance of firearm safety and the adaptability of modern firearms through customization.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the penetration capabilities of various firearm calibers against a standard Steelcase filing cabinet. The host, demonstrating practical experience and proper firearm handling, shows how rounds from a .22 LR Ruger 10/22 up to a .44 Magnum Ruger Super Redhawk perform. The experiment highlights the significant difference in stopping power between smaller and larger calibers when encountering intermediate barriers.

This video showcases a series of firearm-related "fails" from TikTok, offering a humorous yet cautionary look at improper gun handling. It includes demonstrations of a Ruger 10/22, Glock 19, and 1911 in various tests, such as a Master Lock penetration challenge and a critique of an ATF official's difficulty disassembling a Glock. The content highlights the importance of firearm safety and knowledge.

This video explores the bullet-stopping potential of Oobleck, a non-Newtonian fluid, by testing various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The experiment, conducted with enthusiasm and safe firearm handling, demonstrates how Oobleck behaves differently under varying projectile impacts. It successfully stopped smaller rounds but was overwhelmed by larger calibers, highlighting the material's unique properties under extreme force.

This guide synthesizes expert advice on selecting and maintaining firearms designed for extreme longevity, even in post-collapse scenarios. It covers key models like Glock, HK416, AK variants, FN SCAR, Benelli M4, Sig P365, Ruger GP100, and Ruger 10/22, emphasizing their durability, simple maintenance, and parts availability. The instruction highlights specific maintenance tasks crucial for ensuring these firearms can function reliably for over 100 years.

This video demonstrates the ballistic resistance of an excavator bucket against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG API. The test, conducted by an experienced individual, shows that while smaller calibers cause minimal damage, larger rounds like the .50 BMG API can penetrate the bucket. The footage provides visual evidence of impact effects and the destructive potential of different ammunition types.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers against a large pine tree, culminating with a .50 BMG API round. Surprisingly, even powerful rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62mm, as well as handgun rounds like 10mm and .44 Magnum, failed to fully penetrate the tree. The .50 BMG API round, while charring the entry point, also did not exit the back of the tree, demonstrating the significant stopping power of a substantial tree trunk.

This video from Yee Yee Life features an experienced host testing the ballistic penetration of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, in an Intex swimming pool. The host demonstrates proper firearm safety and provides detailed measurements of bullet penetration depths, offering unique insights into how different rounds interact with water as a medium. The results highlight significant variations in penetration based on caliber and velocity.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Secret Service Suburban window against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers and even a 10mm and .44 Magnum were stopped with varying degrees of damage, the window was eventually penetrated by a .50 BMG sniper rifle round. The testing provides a clear demonstration of the limits of armored vehicle glass against high-powered rifle threats.
