Snake Oil, there is always somebody ready to sell it to people who don't know any better.

Yea that's more like water. Do it with real ballistics gel.

@furyofbongos "So many defense rounds on the market "brag" about 12" penetration. Well that will grossly over-penetrate through many an average sized or slightly under average sized human when shot from straight on to chest."

The skin tends to catch the bullet, preventing it from entirely exiting the body. It's far harder for a bullet to penetrate skin on exit than on entry. Trauma surgeons often find bullets just under the skin on the opposite side of the body from the entry wound.

Can you identify those abbreviations.

AFR and EPR I know of...the others I do not.

@furyofbongos You're not always afforded a perfect straight-on shot at COM, and rarely a clear, easy head shot. Oftentimes, if a BG is turned slightly to one side (such as while pointing a gun at you), the bullet will have to travel through AT LEAST 12" of internal space to penetrate vital organs. And if you hit a limb part, such as a shoulder or arm, you're not going to do much damage to the torso and its organs at all. In such cases, these rounds will only make gory but superficial wounds.

"Notice how the energy transfer deforms gel." Excellent.

[talabares]

that looks more like ballistics paste instead of gel

Great demonstration!

So many defense rounds on the market "brag" about 12" penetration. Well that will grossly over-penetrate through many an average sized or slightly under average sized human when shot from straight on to chest. Many average sized people are 6-8" "thick" at the chest and I would imagine a 12" penetrating bullet would have enough energy to hurt, possibly kill a bystander.

Thanks for the vid!

YIKES!
