What To Do When You Find Blue Tip Ammo

This video demonstrates a live-fire test of Blue Tip 9mm ammunition's effectiveness against a vehicle door. An experienced shooter from Tática Civil uses a Girsan Witness pistol equipped with a red dot and weapon light to fire the volatile ammunition into a Ford Explorer. The test shows significant damage, including smoke and bullet holes, and highlights the ammunition's explosive characteristic on soft targets. The video also promotes Hickory Flat Boars for specialized ammunition and SDI.TODAY for firearms technology education.

This video demonstrates the unique properties of blue tip 9mm ammunition, which is designed to explode on soft target impact. The instructor, exhibiting experienced authority, tests this ammunition on various soft targets, including simulated zombie heads and soft earth, showcasing its potential applications in extreme scenarios. The guide details how to safely test and observe the effects of this specialized ammunition.

This guide details practical and less conventional uses for red tracer ammunition, emphasizing its utility for target signaling and observing bullet paths during rapid fire. It also cautions against misusing tracers for fire-starting. The instruction comes from an experienced shooter demonstrating proficiency and safe handling.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Soviet-era hammer against various calibers. While smaller rounds like .22 LR caused minimal damage, larger calibers like 9mm, 7.62x39mm, .223 Remington, and .308 Winchester inflicted progressively more damage, with the .308 ultimately causing significant structural failure to the hammer's handle.

This guide details an experiment by Civilian Tactical to test handgun accuracy when shooting through a car windshield. The host, demonstrating experienced authority, uses a Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Shield Plus with a Riton Optics RPX-1 to evaluate bullet deflection with different ammunition types. The findings indicate that Full Metal Jacket rounds perform better than Hollow Points in this specific scenario, though accuracy remains challenging.

This guide details a 1000-round durability test of the O-Sight SE red dot optic mounted on a Witness2311 CMX pistol. The test involved proper mounting procedures, including torquing screws to 17 inch-pounds with Loctite, followed by extensive live fire. The results indicate the O-Sight SE maintained its zero and structural integrity throughout the rigorous test, despite significant cosmetic fouling. This provides valuable insight into the optic's resilience under demanding conditions, as demonstrated by an experienced shooter from Civilian Tactical.

This video presents a humorous skit emphasizing the critical importance of wearing eye protection at the shooting range. It visually demonstrates a handgun malfunction and uses a relatable, albeit exaggerated, scenario with a spent casing to highlight the potential dangers of inadequate eye safety. The creator, experienced in firearm handling and tactical gear, reinforces this essential safety message.

This video features a 'bulletproof' test where a tree is used as a ballistic medium to test various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The Civilian Tactical host, demonstrating high-level firearms expertise, shows that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG can be significantly stopped by a dense tree, with none of the tested rounds achieving a complete pass-through. The test highlights the surprising terminal ballistics of different ammunition types against natural barriers.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the concept of using a human body, simulated with ballistic gel, as a suppressor. The host fires a Derya Arms .22 rifle directly against a ballistic gel head and block, noting the shot sounded 'dead silent.' The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head and into the gel block.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a Belgian M1 steel helmet, evaluating its resistance against various calibers from birdshot to .223. The test, conducted by Civilian Tactical Host, shows that the helmet is not bulletproof against common handgun and rifle rounds like 9mm and .223. The host's energetic and demonstration-oriented style, coupled with expertise in tactical gear, provides a clear assessment of the helmet's limitations.
