Bulletproof Vest Velcro by "Ukrainian armor": Truth Or Fake?

Recently, an interesting video appeared in the Internet. It is about testing a body armor that was made in Ukraine.

A man, wearing a bullet-proof vest, shoots himself in a stomach. Not only he remains unharmed, but he also does not even bend. This demonstration provoked a contradictory reaction.

Barnes 300 AAC Blackout

The .300 AAC “Blackout” – 7.62x35mm in metric – was conceived a few years ago by the Advanced Armament Corporation (now a Freedom Group company) as a viable .30-caliber round for M4-type semi-automatic and select-fire carbines that would provide the same range and accuracy as a 5.56x45mm while retaining the same ballistics of the 7.62x39mm and achieve excellent noise signature reduction levels, although remaining supersonic, when fired through a silencer or a sound suppressor.

And that's a fifty round box.

Winchester 5.56mm M855 62 Grain Pene

Amid a national ammo shortage this is probably the last thing you want to hear. Winchester has issued a recall for some of their 5.56mm centerfire rifle ammo Feb. 4.

The company stated in the recall notice that after an extensive evaluation they found that a single lot of Winchester 5.56mm M855 62 Grain Pene (penetrator) ammunition may contain incorrect propellant, an issue that if used may cause damage to the firearm or render it inoperable, or may cause injury to the shooter or bystanders.
