if you're wearing denim especially like blue jeans this material will kind of stick you have this little wing to kind of hang up in the pocket material which will allow you to pull the gun what's important is that it covers the trigger while it's in your pocket if you carry a gun like this in a pocket do not carry anything else in that pocket don't carry keys or change or anything like that even if you have a holster because you want to avoid having a discharge when you're not expecting it in that pocket we've been using clear ballistics testing gelatin for many years here at the military arms channel it's silicon based so it's stable at room temperature unlike the fbi organic-based gelatin has to be kept at a very specific temperature for it to be accurate and what we're going for here is not trying to mimic fbi gelatin but we want consistency in our testing and the gelatin that clear ballistics offers being silicon based is very consistent so whenever we test different calibers and cartridges we can use this and get consistent results so we will always be using this type of stuff and it goes on sale from time to time plus you can reuse it if you purchase one of their little uh molds you can melt this back down and make a fresh new block so that's why we use this stuff anyway so here's our this is an fbi block which means it's it's a NUMBER_TOKEN inches in length and in front of this i have basically this is a tool i believe that's used for sewing but it has a grid on it that is one inch squares and then you can see the inch markers like a ruler across the top here all right so this thing is NUMBER_TOKEN inches long as a NUMBER_TOKEN inch long block of gel so we used three different types of ammunition in our testing we first shot i believe this is a new load from federal it's a NUMBER_TOKEN grain NUMBER_TOKEN hollow point that's guaranteed to expand and at least penetrate NUMBER_TOKEN inches into gelatin to meet fbi standards fbi standards says that a bullet must penetrate NUMBER_TOKEN to NUMBER_TOKEN inches to be the most effective and so the claim is is that this round will do it another cartridge that uh we love we tested a specific load i should say is the the NUMBER_TOKEN green extreme defender from underwood using a lehigh machined bullet and then as a control we fired a NUMBER_TOKEN grain yep NUMBER_TOKEN grain pmc ball round all right so let's first talk about the performance of the federal hollow point and it traveled about NUMBER_TOKEN inches in but there's a it stretches to NUMBER_TOKEN inches and then the bullet bounced back which is common in the silicon based test medium because the silicon is more durable than organic gelatin so it'll stretch and come back uh it's a little bit more elastic i should say than regular gel so it bounced in and then kind of came back to rest at NUMBER_TOKEN inches but it it went just a hair over NUMBER_TOKEN inches total of penetration which you can see from the wound channel now you can also see if i tilt this down if you look at this top track you can see a blossom and that blossom comes in right about eight inches in and continues on to um to you know the NUMBER_TOKEN inch mark or so starts right here about eight inches and then that blossom ends where the bullet stretched back and just a little over NUMBER_TOKEN inches
START_SPONSOR_TOKEN we've been using clear ballistics testing gelatin for many years here at the military arms channel it's silicon based so it's stable at room temperature unlike the fbi organic-based gelatin has to be kept at a very specific temperature for it to be accurate and what we're going for here is not trying to mimic fbi gelatin but we want consistency in our testing and the gelatin that clear ballistics offers being silicon based is very consistent so whenever we test different calibers and cartridges we can use this and get consistent results so we will always be using this type of stuff and it goes on sale from time to time plus you can reuse it if you purchase one of their little uh molds you can melt this back down and make a fresh new block so that's why we use this stuff anyway END_SPONSOR_TOKEN
