Should I put these on my shelves?

This video from Yee Yee Life demonstrates a ballistic test on steel toe boots, firing various calibers from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The expert instructor shows how lower calibers are stopped by the boots, while higher calibers like .50 AE and .50 BMG penetrate. The test highlights the limitations of steel toe boots against powerful firearm rounds.

This video tests the bullet resistance of a Soviet-era hammer against various calibers of ammunition, from birdshot to .50 BMG. The hammer's head showed minimal damage from smaller calibers, with paint chips and small craters, but was significantly penetrated and damaged by larger rounds like 7.62x39mm and .308 Winchester.

This video tests the bullet resistance of a 2-lb rubber mallet against various calibers, from birdshot to .50 BMG. The mallet demonstrates surprising durability, absorbing impacts from smaller calibers without penetration. However, larger calibers like .223 Remington shatter the handle, and .308 Winchester penetrates the head. The experiment highlights the potential for unexpected stopping power in common tools.

This video tests common household objects and vehicle components as ballistic cover against various calibers including .22 LR, 9mm, .223, 12 gauge, and 300 Blackout. The experiment uses ballistic dummies to determine if objects provide cover (stopping rounds) or concealment (not stopping rounds). Results indicate that most everyday items offer minimal to no effective cover against common firearm calibers, with only certain materials and calibers showing potential to stop rounds.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 100-pound block of lead against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The experiment demonstrates how different rounds interact with soft lead, showing deformation and penetration depths. Notably, the .50 BMG round successfully penetrated the entire lead block and a target behind it, highlighting the extreme power of this caliber.

This video tests the ballistic effectiveness of various locations within a vehicle against 9mm rounds. The driver's side door proved ineffective, while the trunk, areas behind two doors (when positioned low), the passenger footwell, and the wheel well demonstrated significant protection, with no observed penetration. The findings suggest that vehicles can offer substantial ballistic protection.

This guide, presented by D'Boss Firearms, details how to assess a used shotgun's condition, particularly when a seller claims it's in 'like new' or 'never fired' condition. It emphasizes thorough visual inspection for rust and corrosion, and functional testing of the action, highlighting potential issues like severe rust on a Mossberg 500. The advice comes from an experienced firearms professional.

This video humorously depicts a common gun store scenario where a customer dry fires a Glock 19, praises it, but then refuses to buy it due to perceived prior use and a slightly lower online price. It highlights the importance of understanding firearm condition and common sales tactics. The Glock 19 is noted for its 9mm caliber and 15+1 capacity.

This guide details the critical steps for safely clearing a 1911 handgun, as demonstrated by a professional gunsmith at D'Boss Firearms. It emphasizes immediate safety checks and proper procedures to prevent accidental discharges, highlighting a common mistake where a firearm is assumed unloaded but is actually loaded.

This video offers a humorous look at a customer unboxing a Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 rifle. The owner of D'Boss Firearms, with high authority as a dealer, highlights the rifle's OD Green finish and M-LOK handguard. The interaction is satirical, focusing on the customer's eccentric behavior rather than technical instruction.
