Russian vs. American Military Armor... Who Will Win WW3???

This video details a rigorous testing protocol for RTS Tactical's Level IV ceramic composite armor plate, comparing it against their Level III+ steel armor. The ceramic plate successfully stopped multiple rifle rounds including 5.56x45mm, 7.62x39mm, .308 Winchester, and four .30-06 Springfield rounds before failing on the fifth .30-06 shot, demonstrating significant deformation but no penetration on the initial impacts. The test highlights the trade-offs between ceramic (lighter, more deformation) and steel (heavier, less deformation, potential fragmentation) armor systems.

This video details a rigorous test of the next-generation Dragon Skin 2022 armor against various high-powered firearms, including the Sword International Mjölnir rifle firing .338 Lapua Magnum. The expert demonstration, led by Matt Carriker, showcases the armor's performance under different ballistic threats, highlighting its strengths and limitations in multi-hit scenarios and against specific calibers. The content emphasizes practical application and detailed analysis of armor effectiveness.

This video provides a practical demonstration of the VRTS Level III+ Ballistic Plate's capabilities, tested by Guns Pinoy. The plate successfully stops multiple rifle calibers including 5.56x45mm, 7.62x39mm, and 7.62x51mm, with minimal backface deformation observed. The expert-level testing validates the Level III+ rating, showcasing the plate's effectiveness in capturing projectiles.

This video features Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch testing the Standard Manufacturing P22 Jackal, a .22 LR pistol with unique aesthetics, and evaluating its reliability with a 50-round drum magazine. The content also includes a rigorous ballistic test of various body armor types, including fan-submitted DIY plates, against handgun and rifle calibers, culminating in a .50 BMG impact. The expert assessment highlights Carriker's established authority in recreational shooting and ballistic experimentation, demonstrated through safe firearm handling and knowledge of armor ratings.

This video from DemolitionRanch, hosted by Matt Carriker, explores the capabilities of high-powered, regulated air rifles like the AirForce Texan SS and Sam Yang Dragon Claw. Carriker demonstrates their impressive power, accuracy, and surprisingly quiet operation due to integrated suppressors, highlighting a legal loophole where these airguns and their suppressors are not subject to NFA regulations. The content showcases ballistics testing and comparisons, emphasizing the expert knowledge of the host in firearms and related legalities.

This video features Nicholas Irving, a former Special Operations sniper, demonstrating and discussing various high-powered firearms. Irving, author of 'Way of the Reaper,' shares insights on sniper rifles like the Barrett M107A1 and SR-25, discusses the recoil of the S&W 500 Magnum, and tests the penetration capabilities of different calibers against an engine block. The content highlights practical applications and the effectiveness of these weapons in tactical scenarios.

This video demonstrates the dangerous consequences of firing incorrect ammunition calibers in firearms. Experienced instructor Matt Carriker shows how .380 ACP in a 9mm firearm and 9mm in a .40 S&W firearm can lead to cycling failures and severe brass deformation due to improper headspacing. The experiment highlights the critical importance of using the correct ammunition for each firearm to ensure safe operation and prevent damage.

This video from DemolitionRanch, featuring firearms expert Matt Carriker, tests the ballistic resistance of Flex Tape when used as improvised body armor. The experiment involves layering Flex Tape onto cardboard and testing its effectiveness against .22 LR, 5.7x28mm (FN PS90), and 9mm (CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1) rounds. The results demonstrate that even extensive layering of Flex Tape is insufficient to stop common firearm calibers, highlighting the importance of proper ballistic materials.
