This video tests the ballistic resistance of a cast iron skillet against various common firearm calibers. While the skillet demonstrates some resistance, it is not a reliable bulletproof solution. The .22 LR and .380 ACP were stopped, but the 9mm penetrated, fragmenting the cast iron. Higher calibers were not tested to penetration due to expected failure.

Quick Summary

A cast iron skillet can stop .22 LR and .380 ACP rounds, but it is penetrated by 9mm Luger ammunition, causing fragmentation. While it offers some resistance, it is not reliable as improvised armor due to its brittle nature.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a cast iron skillet stop bullets?

A cast iron skillet can stop smaller caliber rounds like .22 LR and .380 ACP. However, it was penetrated by a 9mm round, causing fragmentation, indicating it is not reliable against higher-powered handgun ammunition.

What calibers were tested against the cast iron skillet?

The video tested .22 LR, .380 ACP, and 9mm Luger rounds against the cast iron skillet. While the skillet stopped the first two, the 9mm round penetrated and fragmented the metal.

Is a cast iron skillet effective improvised armor?

While a cast iron skillet demonstrates some resistance to certain handgun rounds, it is not considered effective improvised armor. Its brittle nature means it can fracture and fail against more powerful ammunition, posing a risk of fragmentation.
