Edwin Sarkissian, a high-authority firearms content creator, experimentally tests the ballistic resistance of a U.S. Marine day pack against a variety of calibers in the Nevada desert. The experiment reveals that while the pack, aided by its contents like E-tools and dense clothing, can stop many common rounds, it is ultimately overwhelmed by a .50 BMG projectile. The video demonstrates practical insights into gear performance under extreme conditions.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a surplus IDF helmet against various calibers. While it shows some resistance to a .32 ACP round, it completely fails against standard 9mm FMJ rounds.
