Marine Blaster 3000

This video tests the effectiveness of a 37mm 'Marine Blaster 3000' grenade, loaded with wax crayons, for less-lethal crowd control. The testing involved firing at paper targets and simulated riot heads to assess projectile energy and impact. Adjustments were made to the projectile's charge to achieve desired effects, demonstrating a method for tuning less-lethal munitions.

This video tests the effectiveness of 37mm Skittles grenades as a less-lethal riot control option. Initial tests showed insufficient spread and energy. After professional adjustments, the grenades demonstrated significant spread, capable of covering a crowd, and left dents on a table but did not penetrate ballistic gelatin heads, indicating a potential for less-lethal application.

This video tests the effectiveness of 37mm Skittles-filled grenades as less lethal ammunition for crowd control. Initial tests showed insufficient energy, but adjustments to the reloader resulted in a more effective dispersion pattern. While the Skittles did not penetrate water jugs or ballistic gelatin, they caused significant impact and sugar residue on a target, indicating a less lethal, but impactful, crowd dispersal capability.

This video presents a humorous skit emphasizing the critical importance of wearing eye protection at the shooting range. It visually demonstrates a handgun malfunction and uses a relatable, albeit exaggerated, scenario with a spent casing to highlight the potential dangers of inadequate eye safety. The creator, experienced in firearm handling and tactical gear, reinforces this essential safety message.

This video features a 'bulletproof' test where a tree is used as a ballistic medium to test various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The Civilian Tactical host, demonstrating high-level firearms expertise, shows that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG can be significantly stopped by a dense tree, with none of the tested rounds achieving a complete pass-through. The test highlights the surprising terminal ballistics of different ammunition types against natural barriers.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the concept of using a human body, simulated with ballistic gel, as a suppressor. The host fires a Derya Arms .22 rifle directly against a ballistic gel head and block, noting the shot sounded 'dead silent.' The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head and into the gel block.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a Belgian M1 steel helmet, evaluating its resistance against various calibers from birdshot to .223. The test, conducted by Civilian Tactical Host, shows that the helmet is not bulletproof against common handgun and rifle rounds like 9mm and .223. The host's energetic and demonstration-oriented style, coupled with expertise in tactical gear, provides a clear assessment of the helmet's limitations.
