We Test How Deadly the Legendary 5.7x28 Is

I love how Charlie is normal at times, and then just: “Kill people with hammers!!!”

Charlie's energy and his ability to throw Mike off genuinely is amazing, unmatched and unique. It makes these videos so fun to watch.

Loved the ATF jabs haha The water drop sound effects in the abdomen shot killed me 😂

I had a FiveseveN years ago. We bought the SS197 ammo from FN and it penetrated both sides of a soft Kevlar vest. It was a small hollow point round but it went straight through the vest. They stopped making the SS197 round, I would imagine because it was penetrating like that while it was designed to be a "civilian" round rather than the 190 armor piercing. I was full time law enforcement and still couldn't get my hands on the armor piercing rounds. You had to buy them through a department at that time, you couldn't have a letterhead to bring to the gun shop. It was a great pistol, I carried it as a secondary on SWAT. Almost no recoil and it barked some flames. I think the ammo now is toned down.

I love how Micah is treated as comedic relief but straight up outshoots everyone

I died at “It seems to do exactly what all the other bullets we’ve tested done which is, it will… fuck you up”

Man that 5’10 vs 6ft comparison hit me pretty hard 🤣🤣🤣

I’m glad that Charlie’s back and that he’s okay.

Not only does the beefy 9mm quickly degrade wrist stability, it also blows the lung out of the body

also keep in mind : FNH/FN America's contract with most companies has resulted in a purposed reduction in velocity to reduce the performance of 5.7x28 ammunition (probably at the fbi's request). speer gold dot being one of the worst... aac's velocity seems to be one of the best. but the projectile performance isnt quite there yet. of course, if you get your hands on older ammunition or private loads, you will see how the 5.7x28 USE to perform...

I tested both pistol and carbine back in 2000 for my department ,what you need is the black tip “AP” round. It went through a ballistic vest with no problem

Despite this performance, I still wouldn't mind a Part 2 where you try shooting the 5.7 at various kinds of armor and maybe even different types of cover, and compare it to some other calibers. :goodvibes:

The 5.7x28 was the round of choice for Stargate Command, so it's clearly a highly capable and lethal round.

Love the evolution of everyone. You humor is a God send. Great Work!!!

As someone who has been shot by both 9mm and 5.7 and lived I can attest to them both making for a shitty recovery time. I can't tell you too much about this first incident but I can tell you for whatever reason the 9mm was a numb airy feeling hit with like the kind of pain you get from a firecracker going off in your hand or a hard smack from someone (mixed with adrenaline)...until I got to ER then the pain was def showing itself (hit once in the upper quad on right leg). The time I was hit by a 5.7 in the shoulder I will never forget. I was schobberknock drunk walking home from the bars in downtown Indianapolis (Broadripple) at about 2:30am when I was hit by a 5.7 round smack in my right shoulder right through my leather jacket intended for someone else in a drive by as I was walking thru the worst shady alley I could have picked just to get back to my apartment faster. The pain I felt from that MF was searing hot and super intense. It felt like what I imagine having a red hot stick of rebar slammed into your shoulder. I remember initially grabbing at it fumbling to make the pain stop like when you do when you burn the hell out of yourself to no avail. I actually ran myself to the police station a few streets away to get help. The 5.7 wound bled out more as well idk why but unlike the 9mm it went all the way thru my muscle and shoulder bone and out the other side. What sucked more? That's hard to say but what hurt more was the 5.7 without a doubt.

I love all of these videos, but damn I've missed you Charlie!

I love that the closing arguments is basically just: "It's a bullet, and bullets f**k people up, so it'll f**k you up"

Charlie is hilarious. Air quotes “raw milk” had me cracking up @9:06

“Raw milk” had me rollin. 😂😂😂

Forged in fire reference... i was thinkingbit from the beginning of this 1 video, thanks for delivering😂
