Title: Does an M14 really "turn cover into concealment"? Part 5: Water barrel
Post by: Raggedyman on August 13 2015 09:45:29 AM MDT
This week's episode features M80 ball from a 22" barrel M1A and M855 ball from a 16" barrel AR into a 55 gallon drum full of water. You know the drill. Place your bets.

When I attended the CBP Officer's Basic Course at FLETCHER GLYNCO we watched several videos about cover versus concealment.

Although anything is possible (and I thought some things were not) it was amazing to see what rounds would penetrate different "cover" turning it into concealment!

Cinder block was readily penetrated by most high power rifle, pistol, and 12 gage buckshot; when the cinder blocks were filled with rebar and/or sand, riprap, or gravel it offered mor cover; but plain cinder block without filling eventually fell victim to even the lowly .22 lr. 

A real eye opener!
