In the 80’s and 90’s when I was in school those books were thick as hell. My book bag weighed at least 25-30lbs and when filled with those books was at least a foot thick. I think that would have been enough to stop most pistol rounds.

I agree, test it with a text book, chromebook, and a couple spiral notebooks. Glad it stops bullets empty, but interested to see body impact (cardboard etc) with it packed a bit. I think it will make a difference.

I love this style of book bag body armor its than the kind that transforms because those are impractical, no attacker is just going to stand by as you transform your book bag into a vest but this one is cool because you can just wear it on the front of your body and be protected constantly without needing to transform it👌

Even a broken rib behind armor can be lethal if it hits in the wrong place. But any armor is better than nothing. Just don't think you are 100% safe even with top of the line armor.

CZ 52, represent!

Thank you for including the 7.62Tok ammo, in Europe this is part of the 'threat environment'. I am thinking of getting a UHMWPE level III plate with the size of my laptop so that I can insert it in my laptop backback.

Love these vids

i know what my new backpacks gonna be for Senior year

Would definitely like to see a future 5.7x28 round video/testing of different bullet types on the soft armor.

Sending my kids to school with this

762 tokarev handgun with iron core ammo sounds like a fcking awesome combo

You know the world has gone crazy when you feel the need to send your kid to school with body armor.

Glad you tested the five seven on the backpack and you should definitely do a 5 7 test with different types of bullets and different guns pistol and the P90 different barrel lengths and ballistic gel behind the armor

Love it thanks

Just what you need for first day at school

GREAT VIDEO!! I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO SEE THE TEST WITH FMJ AS WELL. BECAUSE WE KNOW BAD GUYS SPEND $1+ A ROUND. I THINK FMJ IS MORE LIKELY WHAT YOU WOULD ENCOUNTER.

I so wish I had bought a PS90 back when they first came out. We were a factory authorized shop and everyone working there had the opportunity to buy one for $750, with the stipulation that we couldn't sell them for a year...

I dig the sage green fleece.

Just built a shield out of the 11x14 from catiarmor. A steel door handle and a metal detector brace. SOLID.

good job on the video guy's. keep up the good work guy's and don't stop what you guy's are doing.

I would love to see a few textbooks in the backpack for a rifle test

I would love to see this tested with laptop/tablet and maybe couple of books in it. Maybe even put some gel behind it.

Good stuff, I couldn’t find it to buy one.

"...caus-reasons...." your darn right haha

I seen a armor video were they strapped the armor to big water jugs removed the top. Fill full. The water "shows" how much more back face force it has between each caliber. Then they hit the jug plain with a rubber hammer and a bat. Most handguns are like being hit in the ribs or gut with a bat if your wearing armor.

Put off getting my kids something like this for too long, thanks for the kick in the butt.

I would like to see this test with the backpack full of heavy text books file papers and maybe a laptop or tablet just to see how that would impact the impact of the rounds on armor

7.62x25 ftw! Proud owner of a Romanian TTC here.😎

Nah just stick a laptop in there, this is more realistic these days than a book :)

I, for one, would be very interested in the 5.7 video.

Like mentioned before by other members, you put a few books in that bag and you probably would be all set with the armor as backup.

You’ve got my vote for a 5.7x28 test video

Anti-gun people need to become active self protection people. Make good arguments based in sound science to change minds. Guns have the merit.

Going Paul Harrell style!

Was wondering if you were going to use the tokarev on it.

Yes... Please more 5.7x28 videos!!!

What about 3a inserts? There are plenty that will fit in my Carhartt backpack I use daily, particularly in the laptop sleeve section. I don't carry a laptop. I just haven't seen the proof I need to spend the $ I have made a cardboard mockup, I think the common size I have seen is around 11x14, and it fits just fine

Are you thinking of testing the higher rated backpacks?

I'd love to see your thoughts on the ruger precision rifle in .308.

shooting vests back in the day with a .307 lever lots of fun . 70 yards goodnight .

It's a backpack, so I would put a large thick book in the back pouch with some denim on both sides to slow the bullet down even more.if you can afford it I would recommend it not perfect but better than nothing.it's like carrying a gun any caliber is better than none.

That 5.7 ammo test sounds interestng.

Velocity is squared in the equation meaning that it actually exponentially increases energy while mass is a linear increase.

What about testing it with say a book or two in it to give more real world experience?

I really want to see 22 tcm vs 5.7 with some 22tcm factory and reloads see if they are comparable

I have a question about the upper end pistol rounds that didn't go through the armor, but put a large dent in the cardboard. I understand it could break the sternum, or ribs, and would knock the wind out of you, and cause a large bruise. Could the shock wave traveling through the body from the impact cause damage to the internal organs, or blood vessels?

Did this pack have the Trauma pad? I believe it is optional.

I own one soft vest and one plate carrier, just in case.

I'd be interested to see how it would stop some rifle rounds with a textbook or a laptop inside. If you're wearing a backpack its most likely carrying something in it of the sorts.

I wonder if the bag manufacturer could decrease the point load on the backside with a thin layer of neoprene on the person side of the bag. It would certainly feel better as an everyday bag with a little more give between you and even the soft armor.

Anybody know any good back packs for an 7.5 inch barreled ar pistol?

Books and stuff in the back pack would make these tests a little different.

you need some handloads for that F and N. LoL

Up next; bulletproof speedo shooting test

Would love to see a 5.7 vid i think it’s a awesome round would like too have it chambered in a rifle for predator hunting that round reminds me a lot of the Remington 5mm round

Would have liked to see the .22TCM used to test that 3a armor.

What if you held it off your body about an inch or 2 to reduce some of that impact

Please test again with some text books, I think they could make a serious difference in its effectiveness and show a more accurate representation of it in use

I once carried a Norinco mod 54 as my car gun. That damn thing would punch through two foot thick live oak, it sure as hell would have done for some ijit trying to oppose me from behind a car door.
