My New Purple MCK VS Questionable Body Armor

This video features an expert-level test of discarded CH-47 helicopter armor, assessing its ballistic resistance against various rifle and pistol calibers. The armor, described as composite and unusually light, demonstrates impressive performance, stopping rounds up to M80 ball at close range. While it eventually succumbs to .300 Win Mag and .50 caliber rounds, its effectiveness against common threats is highlighted, offering valuable insights into military-grade ballistic protection.

This video from Civilian Tactical tests six methods for defeating Level IV NIJ certified body armor. It examines the effectiveness of special ammunition rounds like 5.56 HEI and 30.06 AP, sustained fire, and the powerful 50 BMG round. The test also explores targeting unprotected areas like the pelvic girdle, the strategic use of buckshot to hit around armor, and the extreme measure of using a flamethrower. The presenter, with apparent expertise in tactical applications, demonstrates the limitations and potential vulnerabilities of high-level body armor under various conditions.

This video demonstrates a ballistics test comparing body armor's resistance to a Barrett .50 caliber rifle, a 500 Beowulf, and a 44 Magnum. The armor proved exceptionally tough, with multiple rounds from these powerful calibers failing to penetrate. The presenter notes the difficulty in breaking down the armor, likening it to making a snowball.

This video from God Family and Guns discusses the predictable patterns of ammunition shortages triggered by major events. It identifies 9mm and 5.56/.223 as the first calibers to disappear due to high demand, followed by range ammunition and then secondary calibers like .308. The speaker emphasizes that preparation is key, as waiting for a trigger event like a pandemic or war is too late. The video also touches on supply chain fragility, price spikes, and issues at manufacturing plants like Lake City as indicators of potential shortages.

This video demonstrates the '9 Reloaded' magazine loader, a product received at SHOT Show. The instructor, with significant experience, highlights its ease of use for loading 9mm rounds into a Glock 19 magazine. The device is praised for saving time and protecting thumbs during the loading process, making it a highly recommended accessory for firearm owners.

This video explores the concept of civilian Submachine Guns (SMGs) and Pistol Caliber Carbines (PCCs), particularly K-sized variants, as Personal Defense Weapons (PDWs). It addresses the lethality of 9mm in full-auto (FRT) compared to 300 Blackout, the practical usability of SMGs at various ranges, and the significant size and logistical advantages of 9mm subguns for concealed carry and travel. The presenter, Brass Facts, argues that while 300 Blackout offers superior terminal ballistics, 9mm SMGs provide a sufficient level of lethality with enhanced concealability, lower cost, and easier handling, making them a viable option for civilian defense scenarios.

This video showcases a competitive shooting session between Autumn and professional shooter Alex Zedra, featuring drills focused on speed, accuracy, and efficient reloads. The session highlights the performance of various firearms including the Kel-Tec CP33, Ruger Mark IV Lite, Kriss Vector, and Glock 34. Expert insights are provided on techniques for rapid magazine changes and movement between shooting stations, demonstrating advanced competitive shooting skills.

Autumn's Armory visits Whisper Tactical Range to test a diverse collection of firearms, including several AK variants and handguns. The video features shooting sessions with a Phoenix Arms .25 ACP, suppressed Taurus TX22, Zastava ZPAP M90, Vepr 5.45 AK, suppressed PSA AKE, custom .300 Blackout AR-15, suppressed HK Mark 23, and a full-auto AR-15 with a Wide Open Trigger. The range day concludes with a dry-fire demonstration of a Smith & Wesson 500 Magnum.

Autumn's Armory provides an in-depth comparison of .45 ACP, .45 Long Colt, and .410 slugs using a water jug penetration test and chronograph. The video highlights the significant differences in velocity and terminal ballistics between these common handgun and shotgun rounds, with the .410 slug demonstrating superior destructive power. The expert instruction emphasizes practical ballistics and firearm capabilities.

This video showcases a 7-year-old, Autumn, engaging with various firearms and a realistic toy gun. She demonstrates proficiency and enjoyment while shooting pistols like the P320 X-Carry and a CP33, and a Sig M400 Tread rifle. The review also highlights a Goat Guns AK and 1911, emphasizing their realistic moving parts and suitability for play. Autumn's handling and positive reactions suggest a comfortable and safe introduction to firearms.
