Ponta Azul no 9MM: Saiba pra que serve!

This video demonstrates a ballistic gel test of 9mm blue tip ammunition, specifically Havoc Halo rounds, fired from a Daria Arms DY9 pistol. The presenter documents the impact and resulting damage in slow motion, highlighting the round's performance on a ballistic head target. The footage provides a visual representation of projectile expansion and penetration.

This video from Tática Civil tests several unique 9mm ammunition types, including Dragon's Breath (a solid projectile, not a shotgun shell), red tracer rounds from Hickory Flat Boars, and blue-tipped rounds designed to release stored energy on impact with soft targets. A CCI Birdshot cartridge is also demonstrated. The presenter, while enthusiastic, exhibits a hobbyist's level of expertise.

This video demonstrates the unique effects of blue-tipped 9mm ammunition, which explodes upon impact with soft targets. The instructor, exhibiting experienced authority, showcases its potential applications in a hypothetical zombie apocalypse scenario, including disabling vehicles and causing significant damage to simulated soft targets like ballistic dummy heads. The demonstration highlights the ammunition's distinct properties compared to tracer or exploding rounds.

This video demonstrates an informal ballistic test of 9mm ammunition fired into a frozen lake. The experiment, conducted by an individual with clear firearm handling experience, aimed to observe bullet behavior upon impact with ice. The results showed that the 9mm bullets did not spin as sometimes seen in other videos and primarily created holes in the ice, with one bullet bouncing back. The test utilized a Girsan Witness Match X 2011 handgun equipped with a red dot optic.

This expert-level guide details a 1000-round test evaluating the viability of $2 gardening gloves for shooting. The assessment covers durability, comfort, and value, concluding that budget gloves can offer surprisingly good performance for their cost, despite showing significant wear. The instructor's structured testing methodology and clear evaluation criteria highlight their experienced approach to gear assessment.

At SHOT Show 2026, HUXWRX unveiled the new FLOW 45M suppressor, a 3D-printed titanium, modular, flow-through design. It is compatible with a wide range of calibers including .45-70, .45 ACP, 9mm, .357, .458 SOCOM, and .300 Blackout subsonic, with supersonic approval pending. The suppressor ships with a booster and thread protection ring, and is currently available.

This video explores the theoretical and practical outcome of loading a 50 BMG cartridge into a 12 gauge flare gun. The experiment, conducted by a hobbyist, demonstrates that while the 50 BMG cartridge surprisingly fits, the flare gun's firing mechanism and primer strength are insufficient to ignite it. The test highlights the significant differences in primer resistance between ammunition types.

This video debunks the myth that shooting upwards is safe, explaining the lethal terminal velocity of falling projectiles. It showcases the Canik Mete MC9 Prime with a Gideon Valor optic and demonstrates the use of 9mm shot shells for controlled, less dangerous demonstrations, highlighting their unique projectile dispersal.

This video debunks the myth that a .50 BMG round passing near a target can be lethal due to shockwave. Using a ballistic mannequin head and a Big Kahuna Firearms Raptor-50 rifle, the test demonstrated that while the .50 BMG round impacted and destroyed a concrete block behind the target, it did not affect the mannequin or the cardboard placed near it. The conclusion is that a near miss from a .50 BMG is not fatal.

This video conducts a destructive test comparing the impact of .22 LR and .50 BMG rounds on a ballistic head model. The .22 LR caused minimal damage, while the .50 BMG completely destroyed the head, highlighting the vast difference in energy and destructive potential between the two calibers. The test also showcases the Raptor .50 BMG upper receiver as an accessible way to experience .50 BMG ballistics on an AR-15 platform.
