This video tests the ballistic resistance of a thin saw blade against various calibers of ammunition, including 12 gauge bird shot, .22 LR, 9mm Luger, and .223 Remington. The saw blade demonstrated surprising resilience, stopping bird shot and .22 LR rounds, though it was cracked by 9mm and shredded by .223. The test highlights the potential of repurposed materials for ballistic protection.

Quick Summary

A ballistic test revealed that a thin saw blade can stop 12 gauge bird shot and .22 LR rounds without penetration. However, the blade was cracked by 9mm Luger and completely shredded by .223 Remington, demonstrating its limitations against more powerful calibers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a saw blade stop bullets?

In a ballistic test, a thin saw blade demonstrated the ability to stop 12 gauge bird shot and .22 LR rounds without penetration. However, it was cracked by 9mm Luger and completely shredded by .223 Remington rounds, indicating limitations against higher-powered ammunition.

What calibers were tested against the saw blade?

The ballistic test included 12 gauge bird shot fired from a shotgun, followed by .22 LR, 9mm Luger, and .223 Remington rounds. The results showed varying degrees of penetration and damage depending on the ammunition's power.

Did the saw blade's serrations affect bullet penetration?

The video suggests that the serrations on the saw blade might have influenced the impact of the .22 LR round, making it difficult to determine if it fully penetrated. The serrations could potentially contribute to material deformation or deflection.
