dont use AR500 as body armor if you give a shit about living through being shot with a varmint rifle and one specific ammo type.

Have you done this with the jelly behind it? Interested to see what the penetration looks like after clearing that, plus spall effects.

So you would not trust AR500 steel armor to save you in a gang related home invasion where threats have handguns, assuming the armor was struck by a bullet?

You talk less than other gun video commentators.




I like that. Less talky, more shooty.




Ditto. I watch a lot of gun related videos on youtube and one of my biggest complaints about many of them is that the people running them have a tendency of being a bit to chatty, in my opinion. Nut n' fancy is (probably) the most well known poster boy for this pet peeve but he's certainly not the only one who's guilty of this, though.

This is how I look at it. Get decent plates with some spall protection and you're better protected than almost all police officers.

I've never been paid anything by any company or individual.  Ever.  These videos cost me a decent amount of money, not even considering my time.  I have gotten free shit to test before, and members of this forum have sent me ammo to try out.  I paid for this plate knowing I would shoot holes in it to educate myself and others.

 






I have purposely not posted links to the videos which are more like a merchandise showcase, because I didn't want to post shit on here that is like a commercial.  Even though some free targets doesn't even touch what it costs me to stand on that range let alone cameras, guns, ammo, etc.












How does my channel name indicate I'm trying to sell you something?  The wound channel is the name for the path a bullet cuts through flesh, I thought it was a clever youtube channel name.  I didn't even come up with it a member of this forum did.












If I am trying to sell you something by shooting holes in body armor I've got to be the worst salesman ever lol.  Unless you think I'm trying to sell you m193 ammo and long barrels.







ETA: I clarified my first statement because I thought the quote said "paid for reviews" not paid for views.  My videos are monetized by youtube.

If your location is correct shipping might be costly.  I would be glad to use it though, shoot me a PM if you have something specific in mind.  I have already filmed two more videos with this plate, it's about toast.

Why didn't you back the plate up with clay as is required for such testing?



View Quote
The original test was supposed to be worst case scenario, so I rigidly clamped the plate.   After that people wanted to know what kind of difference backing the plate up would make, so I kept the same test rig so the comparison would be fair.

 



With all the variables of ballistic testing I don't try to chase (sometimes arbitrary) test standards, they're costly and difficult/impossible to recreate anyway.  A good example is that "official" ballistic testing like this specifically says you cannot use a firearm, and the temperature has to be 70F +- 5F.  I also don't see the point in recreating the testing that the label of this plate specifically says it already passed, I'm not untrusting of the company I'm just exploring other scenarios.

At 7 yards it was not a bunch of fragments (even though I really thought it would be).  I think @ 25 yards it would be more fragmented, especially since the pieces that cracked my gopro housing were from the round that penetrated.

Please ignore the trolls and imbeciles. The rest of us appreciate a member contributing something other than their opinion on American Sniper and how silent the theater was.

I agree that placing something (ideally ballistic gel) behind the armor would be an improvement to gauging effectiveness.

Ideally, the plate would be in a carrier with and without soft armor (I believe most plates are designed to be worn in conjunction with soft armor). I understand if this is cost prohibitive.

Another thing for people to keep in mind is that bullets don't necessarily impact the target at perfect 90 degree angles in gun fights. Those plates will hold up much better if the impact angle is off a bit.

Lol omg it was sooooooooo silent.  I wonder if it occurred to anyone that it was probably the only movie without music during the credits.

 



If you watch the videos @ 7 yards it actually has everything you mentioned.  Ballistic gel, soft armor backer, chronograph.  




The idea of keeping the videos as short as possible leads me to not repeat stuff from previous videos in follow-up ones, although it makes the later ones seem incomplete.  This video was really just to see if either had a chance @ 25 yards.  You are correct repeating the gel and soft armor and everything for every scenario is cost prohibitive.

I actually was sent a ceramic Level IV plate by this same company, but I just haven't figured out what to do with it yet.  I don't want to waste it by hitting it with something everyone knows it would stop anyway.

 



Since they were nice enough to send it I want to use it for something awesome, I'm being patient for once lol.

It's "The Wound Channel"

Seems like he's trying to sell us something.


I'm sure he is making a fortune off of shooting ammo through body armor.

Go be the 99% somewhere else.

Where in NC are you? I've got an AK74 we could test some 5.45 7n6 ammo out of.

Nice video OP. Even with chatter it was shorter than the Nutnfancy theme song.

Have you done this with the jelly behind it? Interested to see what the penetration looks like after clearing that, plus spall effects.


Good heavens, when did your legion of sycophants get you reinstated?

Why didn't you back the plate up with clay as is required for such testing?

hard plates do not require a backing material with 'give' in order to be effective/most effective.  that only applies to soft armor.  of course the other reason that a clay backing material is used in testing is to be able to measure back-face deformation but thats also not applicable here

Second...  Well, hell, I have nothing useful to add.  I'd love to see how ceramic and those plastic plates hold up, but I understand if that's out of your budget.

I actually was sent a ceramic Level IV plate by this same company, but I just haven't figured out what to do with it yet.  I don't want to waste it by hitting it with something everyone knows it would stop anyway.    

Since they were nice enough to send it I want to use it for something awesome, I'm being patient for once lol.
