The 9mm Krink - SHOT Show 2026 | Palmetto State Armory

This video from Civilian Tactical features an experienced instructor testing the durability of a D.A. Self-Healing Target against 1000 rounds of 9mm ammunition fired from a Girsan pistol equipped with a red dot and weapon light. The test demonstrates the target's impressive resilience, with minimal substantial damage after the high volume of fire. The video also includes a promotional segment for Ammo Squared's ammunition delivery service.

This video details a rigorous durability test of the PLX weapon light, assessing its resilience against the recoil of a 9mm pistol, the blast of 12 Gauge slugs, and the concussive forces from an AR-style rifle's muzzle brake.
