The ONLY Safe Rounds to Shoot in the Sky!!!

This guide details how to safely launch soda cans using an AR-15 and blank ammunition. Key steps include preparing the can by loading it cap-down for better visual feedback and understanding the need for manual bolt cycling due to the nature of blank rounds. Proper firearm safety protocols are paramount throughout the process.

This video demonstrates tactical door breaching techniques using a Mossberg 590 mag-fed shotgun equipped with a standoff device. It covers breaching lock mechanisms with dedicated rounds and attacking door hinges, emphasizing proper angles and ammunition selection. The instructor highlights the effectiveness of compressed zinc breaching rounds and discusses the limitations of birdshot for such applications.

This video provides an expert-level overview of various 12-gauge shotgun ammunition types, demonstrating their characteristics and effects, particularly when fired from a suppressed Mossberg 590. The instructor, with clear expertise, explains the differences in recoil, stopping power, and projectile types, ranging from standard buckshot and slugs to exotic and less-lethal loads. It's a practical guide for understanding ammunition diversity in a hypothetical survival scenario.

This video, featuring TheYankeeMarshal, debunks the myth that birdshot is ineffective or too dangerous for home defense. The instructor explains that at close range, birdshot retains significant energy and can cause lethal damage, contrary to popular belief. He emphasizes that using birdshot for home defense to avoid harming bystanders is a dangerous misconception, as it can still be deadly.

This video tests the performance of a "kitchen sink" 12-gauge shotgun shell, which contains a mix of buckshot, slugs, and birdshot. The "kitchen sink" shell was tested against a water jug and ballistic gelatin to demonstrate its explosive impact and penetration depth. Pattern testing on paper showed a tight grouping of buckshot and slug with birdshot spreading around the impact zone.

This video provides an expert-level demonstration of 17 different 12-gauge shotgun shells, including slugs, buckshot, and various birdshot sizes, tested through a GForce Arms Gatlander semi-automatic shotgun. The host, a specialized firearms content creator with practical range experience, details the effects of different loads on recoil, muzzle rise, and cycling reliability. Key takeaways include the significant recoil from heavy slugs, the manageability of buckshot, and the inverse relationship between birdshot size number and pellet diameter.

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.
