"What if the US military goes to a place where they are shor at by lever action rifles? "
What, like Virginia?

Moritami Kamikara they might have to soon, who knows?
@@who6494 they would if they wanted to bud lol
*Civil War Vibes*
One year later Virginia is anti gun😂
“I’m not perfect” the sentence of the century
i agreed
I wold like the 22
It fast
And powerful
Just like a gun
Perfect answer
Of the millennium
These old PASGT helmets were rated IIIA, for shrapnel and balistic threats along the line of pistol calibers (out of an actual pistol) and explosive frag. Considering these old GWOT surplus helmets are Kevlar and Aramid with expiration dates to boot, I'd say the helmets held up pretty well.
Thanks for watching, you've been select among my lucky winners for the ongoing giveaway,kindly message me for more information
They were designed to predomanently protect against shrapnel, blunt objects, and some small caliber. They are also designed so that anything making it inside does not ricochet around inside, so that blowout is by design.
No, steel helmets? Yes. Kevlar is for bullets
Imagine if someone walks by and sees you talking to your self in a river...
Or seeing you shoot a helmet
they would want to join, obviously
I would keep on walking!
With a bunch of guns... One would think you were a black market dealer.
...while carrying lotsa guns....
Quarantine has got me finding all sorts I never searched for
Alex Hey I wonder what the FBI agent watching your search history thinks
Same homie
Alex Hey I just searched America
u enjoy dis?
Right!!!
I own a M1 Helmet which i decided to shoot at with my 22cal Brno. it went straight through. remarkable how much the technology has improved considering the relatively short time span.
I can’t explain how much I love your videos I’m so sorry for your loss I hope everything gets better. Your positivity helps me through my day I know how it feels to loose someone so if you need someone to talk to I’m here. ❤️❤️
“Rufus, you said you wouldn’t touch another gun in your ENTIRE LIFE!”
“...”
“...”
“...”
“I’m not perfect.”
i read this as soon as the part started
I’m not perfect *thinks* maybe I am perfect just kidding
Come on Rufus is probably learned his lesson now been two damn years Lieutenant Dan has gotten discharged from the army Nicolas Irving isn’t really in much of his videos Lucas TV is going down Scott and Matt are having an argument of who is the king of the 5## Magnum we never also got the name of the gun a Holick’s leader guy the pandemic is going on my house got looted during the riots
Woah i can't believe it we watched the same video
Almost like you watched the video or something
I've never seen a barrett in action outside of a Call of Duty game, and now that I've seen what it can do to 3 kevlar helmets, I can't even imagine the devastation of it hitting someone completely unprotected.
Person? I only see blood
Yet I still get hit markers
@@o0TheKillerFish0o That has been disproven several times and there are actually videos on youtube proving it. a 50 cal can fly right past your head and nothing will happen to you except for maybe impaired hearing for a few minutes and brown pants. its not some mystic magic weapon, it's a bullet just like every other gun, just a bit bigger and a whole lot faster
@@IIIRobIII the multi kill in a room is maybe possible, but then from shrapnel from the "exploding" wall. Just like how those old anti tank guns worked.
oscarmelton what about an incendiary round lol
Hey Matt, I just wanted to say I really love your videos they bring me great peace I just wanted to say you can’t even wrap your head around how much I enjoy these videos man. Thank you for making this one.
Man I love these og demolition ranch videos
DemolitionRanch 2018: shooting helmets

yeah soon he will have a video that starts with "dont tell mere guys but i bought a harrier jet".
Lol
@@torino7623 what is Mere
Invest in a high quality slow motion camera. It would make your channel even better
and also spend thousands of dollars
@@susantaggart2959 I'm sure it is nothing for him, dudes got the bags
All these guns are pretty expensive so the guy can pay for the camera otherwise he is too busy buying guns
@@Arel_Kursat lol yeah
A phantom high speed camera costs over 100,000 dollars
He puts more work into intros than the video itself love it
It’s been a year ever since I watched this video One year of not watching demolition ranch finally it’s been an addiction.
Rufus: “I will never touch a gun ever again.”
Matt: *im about to end this man’s whole career*
No
Caleb Ladner ok
What kill him?
Shoddy Peasant How many Matt’s are there
Do it
Me: wanting to be a sniper
My shoulder: Hell nah
lol
You can snipe with 7.62x51 nato. It's not too much recoil.
.50 bmg though? yeah... those make my teeth fillings hurt just standing next to one being fired.
@@kathrynck the 50 doesn’t kick that much
@@homerororor with enough weight & muzzle break, yeah. Still makes my fillings hurt.
@@kathrynck haha
You have DEFINITELY be in either AA or NA meetings😂😂😂this is spot on
That intro was so perfect. That was literally the perfect representation of what one of those meetings might look like XD
What’s terrifying is how easy the AK travels through that helmet.
Well even if it didn't I think the power will shake your head enough to rip your brain apart so they didn't care putting millions into the invention of a new helmet and replacing the old ones.
New helmets stop 7.62s (it will still leave your head ringing, probably a concussion too), old ones will stop them from a distance (again, concussion). Small arms, shrapnel (when reasonable), and other crap will also get stopped though. Not sure about 5.56.
csgo type beat
@@ethangreger4484 generally 7.62 hits harder but, it also depends on what you shoot it out of. A DMR will obviously have the longest barrel and best velocity vs a basic rifle.
I wanted to forget about my csgo days
One of the Best intros in TH-cam industry.
Was it? I just skipped the whole intro
Agreed
@@turbosoggy5412 evil
@vishu do you mean by the joke? Or the fact that Rufus doesn’t want to touch another gun?
@@mythical6957 everything
Although I am just now watching this, I would have picked the .22 just to pass it down to my son and ensure he passes it on and so on. Great channel and have subscribed. Continued success!
I'm just seeing this video after four years of you making it. I love the 3030 and the 4570 and of course the AK, but that 50 BMG!!!
This man needs one or two high speed cameras.
He can afford them
@@olisk-jy9rz if he stopped buying guns for awhile
He can afford them he just don't care
I mean, it'd be cool. And who doesn't want to see more cool stuff? Slow-mo demolition? Sign me up.
@@Terrr05 right
I keep forgetting that he does theese intros by himself
Yea he legit could just make a channel just for his skits
@@bobesponja3702 y e s
But he has a gye that films him
No he doesn't those are his clones.
Haha funny
Huh, didn't even realize till I came to the comments that this was from 2018...knew it was older, just not how much. Openings still great. damn I love this channel
4:50 in:
How he said.. the line" something something... you gonna let me to fire this at your face..?...."
( I dont know if it was the tone he did it in. But it made me have egg wrap shoot out of my nose....
😆🙄🤧😂
*“He ain’t got no legs”*
Killed me instantly
Just like a headshot
“Why are we in water”
He said what were all thinking
lol i love your intro part of the videos
That skit had me in stitches.
I love the idea that Matt sat alone for possibly 30 minutes or more, talking to himself, in a river, just for that intro.
And it was worth it.
And changing his shirt...
Solution: wear 4 helmets.
I know this is a joke and all, but since the 3rd helmet stopped it, it passed through 5 layers of helmet. You'd need to wear 6 helmets, not 4 to survive, if you don't die of the pure force from the hit lol
Charles Hunt no make a flex seal brick flex glue it to the front then flex tape it so it doesn’t fall off even if the flex glue fails
8*
Cuz it had to go through both sides
@@daytonfoster5565 its brain time !!
The outro is always the best.
best intros on youtube
prove me worong
That quick firing AK-47 is the most terrifying sound ever.
war soundtrack
quiet kid sound track
i dont think so
Almost sounds like 4th of july fireworks, but a lot scarier
Yeah now imagen being on the wrong end of that barrel
I feel like this is severely overlooked, but no one’s gonna credit how accurate Matt is with every gun of his possession?
If he were in a war he would be a war crime as long as no random bullets or people are watching him sneakily
UM watch "Can a solid glass ball stop a 50 cal"
I agree Toga
@Mike Griffin he shows his misses?
@@challengemasters775 he show in "Can a solid glass ball stop a 50 cal" XD
Demolish releasing those HITs HITs, i see ya.
You are one of the coolest dudes i know 🖤❤️🖤
"will it go through both sides"
if I am the one wearing the helmet I only really care about the one side.
But your friend might care.
Don’t know why you would worry, it would just pass through emptiness.
@@jackofnotrades7783 cool
😂
Yes good word Mr will
“You said you would never touch another gun in your life!”
“I’m not perfect”
Words to live by
And that's why it's important to avoid people who have addictions that are bad for you.
i would live by that if the uk allowed guns like the us
that's me
The truth has been spoken
yup ewe
The new pattern ECH (Enhanced Combat Helmet) is rumored to stop up to 7.62x39 and lead core 5.56x45mm reliably. They haven’t released the official armor rating to the public but I’d love to see someone try it out.
Wow
Idk, from the videos I’ve seen, it definitely stops those rounds. But the helmet deformation will leave you drooling in a wheelchair from skull crushing brain damage you’ll receive after the hit.
Just bought an ech though and would still take them over nothing lol. Though it’s still better than the ach as well. But you can’t go wrong with an ach either. Pasgt is the one to stay away from. I’d only use my pasgt as an absolute last resort.
C4 was a very close friend to our family, 2 years ago we hosted a 3d archery course for the foundation
America: Wear that helmet and Survive
DemolitionRanch: Wear 4of that to Survive 50. BMG
What? Its a BMG not a BFG.
You need to wear 6 helmelts. Remember each helmelt (×3=6) had two sides it went through and came out of, to be stoped.
Recraft bmg
No sniper will waste a 50 cal on 1 guy unless it’s high value
This is exempt if it’s your only choice
@@fartboy258 lol stfu
I almost forgot why I came in the first place until you mentioned the helmet.
love this channel and all your content ......
Boss: "Rufus you said you never wanted to touch a gun again"
Rufus: ".... I'm not perfect"
Me: *laughing hard*
I can't imagine the look on a face of an army man watching this video....."is this thing that i was wearing for....."PROTECTION"...."
Most helmets aren't supposed to stop bullets but rather frag from grenades and shells.
@@blastgamers8129 probably better at deflecting then direct hits
Already knew it wasn’t stopping direct fire
I’m at AIT right now and this is unsettling
@@alecpaul2314 those are relatively ancient PAGST helmets which are two generations behind current issue. The modern ECH would have stopped everything except the 45-70 because of course no helmet manufacturer does a ballistic test against a 305gr solid brass bullet from 25 meters because that is bonkers.
Fun Fact: Helmets aren’t supposed to stop bullets. They are designed to protect the soldier from shrapnel
What are helmer”s
Lol some people get fucking mad in the comments
Either way they’re pretty useless in a fight. That helmet isn’t going to stop the small amount of shrapnel from going in your head. Plus, it will all hit your torso anyway
@@spid3rmann065 If they are completely useless then why is every military spending money on them?
@@randomdude2546 Don’t know, ask them not me. I’m not the one paying for them
@@spid3rmann065 well maybe the reason is that they aren't useless
I love the 30-30, It was my first ever gun, and I have notice that it doesn't seem to be used all that much on some of the gun YT channels that I watch.
5:59 The one that Tells a Story will without a doubt always be the best one and the one choose
Demolition ranch - only channel I know, where intros can go for up to 3 minutes and you never feel like that time was wasted
Xerus Exaxctly!
You posted this on my birthday, what are the odds, my favourite channel posting on of my new favourite videos on my birthday??!👍
something tells me it wouldn't change the outcome THAT much. but still it's not 100% accurate for sure

Best intro series
Matt: Lever actions only
Also Matt: *Proceeds to pull out an AK-47*
“50 BMG coming in hot”
Helmet: why do I hear boss music?
Can you show all your guns from smallest to biggest? Please
Chandler Mooney Matt would never do that. If you show how many guns and let’s say ammo you have at your house the ATF will find out and make a visit. The ATF will see if you have or done anything illegal. Matt wants to stay safe for his family. No one wants to be on the watch list. The FPS Russian never showed all of his guns till someone sent him some drugs in the mail and the feds found out about it then booom they went to his house and took all of his guns and ammo.
I wish my gun was bigger, I guess I'll live with a 3 inch barrel
Chandler Mooney I don’t think TH-cam can handle a ten hour video
Just rewatch all of his videos and you can see how many weapons he has.... Why would the ATF (dunno what they are, cause i dont live in the US) Visit him and check all his weapons... i guess he has them all registed(?) and IF he would have done any illegal with them, they would already catched him anyways.
And the fps russian stuff you are writing here.. I call Bullshit on this one. No one knows why he stopped youtube.
Clayton Hartin that’s not how this works.
That’s not how ANY of this works.
amazing lever action collection.
great vid dude, i already have 45-70 and 3030 so id wanna go with 44
I’m not perfect
-Rufus 2018
"Today, we are lever action only"

"I have an AK47" 🤣🤣🤣
DrGzhero and then the 50 bmg came along 😂
But we all love 50bmg
Kolow Tv who doesn't? 👌
To be fair, he technically didn't say strictly lever action lol
It's lever action if you believe
Thank you for bringing out the 50 BMG
"If we don't all chip in that buck o five who will" lmao
RUFAS YOU SAID YOU WOULD NEVER TOUCH A GUN AGAIN
Im not perfect
@Alina Sotok creepy
I no
He's an American
Damn, feel like that video and this one just came out yesterday
rip rufas
Damn it Rufus
No one's perfect xd
Man... Not gonna lie that side view of the AK hitting the helmet brought back some fucked up memories.
R.I.P to all my brothers
loved the intro
Fun fact: had a soldier come into the CSH in '05 after he had been shot in the head by an AK. The round went in the front of the helmet, skimmed the circumference, and exited out the back. Never touched the soldier.
@William Wallis Or, you know, physics.
robrobusa I’m betting on physics.
@@Psyminds My apologies to answering so curtly to such an extensive answer, but my sole reason why I "separate" the concept of God from the science of physics is, that I, personally, just not believe in God. I had typed out a longer reply, but I didn't want to disrespect or challenge you or your beliefs. I respect your concept of what God might be. But I simply do not believe in an all-powerful being. Have a good day! :)
Dear god
robrobusa
This pleases me.
To be fair its not a good objective test to hit the same helmet repeatedly on the same side. After 1 shot its already severely compromised. I run a military surplus store and I get helmets like this. I'd gladly sacrifice a half-dozen for some proper objective tests, and maybe a shoutout to my Facebook page :).
Are those helmets metal? Cause the one in this video appears to be made entirely from kevlar, or at least is made from a flexible/malleable material for the outside, as you can see him flexing it here 10:01
were is your surplus store?? richard powell
Jason Alen most modern helmets are made from Kevlar as he states in the video. I do get in some older steel helmets but the majority are what you'd call "PASGT" helmets, these were used from the 80s until around the early 2000s.
crazy boy101 it's in South Carolina
How useful is a bullet proof helmet anyways. Wouldn't the impact from a head shot still cause a fatal amount of blunt force trauma, and potentially break your neck?
I've always wanted a Henry 45 - 70 so awesome
Yes ACH is only IIIA rated, new ones from opscore are a little heavier and way more expensive can do rifle rounds now. Now if it's a deflection, graze or from very long distance where the energy and velocity have greatly diminished, it may save you but mostly the helmet was there for shrapnel as most have pointed out and/or head injuries of going through tight space in vehicles etc.
When Rufus said:"I'm not perfect" I felt that
Brown Soonalote that and your comment do be hitten different doh
"I DIDN'T"
"i bought 2"
I would love for him to have a small show for Gun skits like that.
I figured the joke would be that he stole it.
gotta love that group
Matt teach me shadow clone jutsu. You can't tell me you can't when you did it for the intro skit
Intro was gold!
it was gold
I need his 50 BMG

30/30 easily. My grandpa had the exact same one. I absolutely loved that gun.. his sister took it when he passed and I’ve never seen it since 😞 I miss him and all the good times we had.

I been hunting with my 30/30 since 14 favorite rifle ever

I need to buy my first gun still, after i shot my first gun a couple months ago i got the fever and found this channel straight away😂
It’s May 14th, 2019. In a few more weeks we need a 3 year anniversary of the gunaholics meeting

It's the 27th for me scrubs
28th for me
It's December 6046 for me still colonizing jupiter
I'm just curious how many cameras you destroyed at this point
Soldiers also work around heavy equipment. Beyond protecting from shrapnel and mounting optics, I wonder if blunt injuries are a consideration.
The 45-70 my dad has a single shot breach action so for me to have the lever action would be epic!
I was on post with a guy that took one to the dome. It dazed him a bit but the damn kevlar took it like a champ
Nice that stuff is amazing I’m glad it exists 💚🔥
You mean this video? th-cam.com/video/W0yY4DCShog/w-d-xo.html
I had a buddy that also took a head shot from a 7.62x51 and it penetrated and skirted around his head but did not kill him just gave him a concussion
Is that your squad's firefight posted on here? Right behind a trench or bridge? Somewhere in Afghanistan
This group was so you wouldn’t buy one more gun
I bought two
Everyone: don’t buy 1 more gun
Matt: I bought 2
Everyone: what?!
Matt: post up
Ha ha so funny.😄😄
I plan to buy 3 guns, A shotgun and or rifle, A beretta 9mm and a reliable revolver, So one should always work. Lol
I would love any of them! However my favorite would be the 45-70, I used to have that same gun and I traded it. I regret it ever since
Lol that Intro is soooo me!! Except with crack 😎
I remember in Army Basic Training (back in the early 90s) the drill instructors told us our K-pots wouldn't stop a bullet. They're mainly for stopping shrapnel.
m.blacktree yeah alot of rounds will pass through like a knife through butter
I ship to BCT a month from today. Ft benning GA
Thats where I went, good luck its gonna be hot and humid.
They're designed to deflect the round

Johnny Boulware yeah, here in Florida we are all out for summer.
I love how he holds the 38 like a revolver.
Wow, I learned something today, I really thought these helmets were really only there to protect from shrapnel and wouldn't stop a bullet. Interesting.
