Both videos have loaded. The link to them is on my video page, OR these ones are public.
I'm starting to make the new ones public so that you can just go view them.
Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
I'm loading up a third video now. It's from about two feet in front of the target. It's interesting that its hard to tell when I shoot, based on sound alone. That suppressor does a pretty good job!

Third video is loaded. It's publicly viewable, so you can see it there on the YouTube, in my video thread (link in my signature), or he's the link directly:

Look forward to seeing the vids, Belly !
We found out the other day what factory loads 9/40/and 45 do to 3/8ths acrylic sheeting from about 12-15 ft. away. I can look up what projectile and grain was if anyone gives a shit about that, but we found that shooting straight on at the sheet with 9mm, the bullet was stopped but with "near" penetration. 9mm from a slight angle (say 20 to 40 degrees) the round went through the acrylic AND blew a three inch chunk of material out as the round passed through. 9mm HP was less effective than round nose on this material. Testing with other calibers was all straight on to the material.
We added a second layer of acrylic sheet, and found that 40cal would penetrate through the first sheet, but only made an impression and cracks on the second sheet. 45 cal would not penetrate the first sheet at all, which surprised both of us. After I left, the kid added a third sheet of material and found that at 100 yds. .223 didn't even know the three sheets were there.
Unscientific, but might have been slightly interesting to some of ya.
Gonna go make some breakfasts for the week, and get some laundry and other necessary crapola done.
..and stuff.
Have a link the the material you are talking about?
