The Difference Between Ballistic Shields and Riot Shields While ballistic and riot shields have similar benefits, there are some critical differences between them. Protection: Ballistic shield designers created a tool to provide ballistic protection against bullets, blast and fragmentation. Meanwhile, a riot shield protects against blunt-force trauma, such as batons or thrown objects. Materials: Manufacturers typically make riot shields from polycarbonate, acrylic or Lexan, which are lightweight, durable and impact-resistant materials. On the other hand, ballistic shields consist of heavier materials that can withstand higher impact levels - these materials include steel armor, high-performance polyethylene, laminated glass and Fiberglass. Shapes and sizes: The shape and size of ballistic and riot shields also differ. Ballistic shields are typically larger and offer more coverage, while riot shields are smaller, lighter and easier to maneuver. Users can also handle or mount ballistic shields on vehicles or buildings, while they mainly hold riot shields by hand and use them in close-quarters situations. Application: Due to their characteristics, operators primarily use ballistic shields for entry points or access control in government buildings, borders and checkpoints. Riot shields, conversely, are mostly for crowd control by law enforcement and prison security. Viewport: A ballistic shield typically has a viewport, whereas riot shields do not require one. In summary, while both shields are essential tools, they serve different purposes. Officers and military personnel need to understand the differences between the two types of shields and choose the appropriate one for the situation at hand.

@@MsFrogger75 a hunting bow made for buffalo is 100~ish pounds, and it takes muscles like the athlete playing The Mountain to draw it without training.
I pull 70lbs on my bow and hunt whitetail deer with it. I've never had an arrow go through except 1 time when I accidentally hit it in the guts. It turned right as I was releasing the arrow. Needless to say, the smell was atrocious.
@@pink_parade2900 Unless it's a .22 LR MAYBE. 9mm, .45 ACP, .223, etc. all outshoot a bow AND there are grenade launchers for a reason. Going over cover and concealment.
Arrows can be used in an indirect-fire as artillery too, raining down on top of softer targets. Nearly every ancient civilization with an army utilized archers for these purposes.
Yeah, that was the main purpose, just massed projectiles. You don't really see them singling out targets except in sieges when the enemy is assaulting the walls. In Agincourt they used armor piercing arrows for the heavy knights, but still in a mass fire. When crossbows got introduced there was a greater focus on accuracy rather than volume of fire.
Only European, Asian, and Mediterranean Africa did this. Large scale war and mass murder was not a well known concept in the supposed uncivilized world.
@@ImaKhunt007 also good to note the bow itself is easier to get (no check, can be hand made much easier than a gun), its much quieter without expensive regulated upgrades, and the arows can often be recovered and re-used!

the biggest advantage an arrow has over a bullet is the weight, arrows and bows (not crossbows as much) are designed to to pierce through near anything. When you pull the bow back you are allowing the arrow to stack potential energy so to speak then releasing it it becomes kinetic (moving) energy, thats basic physics some im sure you all know this already but i explained it for a reason. Most bullets are kinda designed to just crumble upon impact and get stuck where as arrows because of the energy stacking are designed to go straight THROUGH just about anything aside from literally the strongest materials. even thin materials can stop lower caliber bullets that even basic arrows can pierce easily like say a small bale of hay. Arrows are (generally) better for piercing compared to a lot of smaller caliber bullets.

Anyone ever thought of bringing paint filled Bloons in a riot? It will ruin the point of these shields being transparent and will just be downgraded to just normal shields with less visibility
It's amazing how much the shaft affects penetration. Many arrows went through but stopped within 6". That could only have been the shaft binding. I suspect the G5 wasn't significantly better but opened the whole enough that the shaft didn't bind.
So many people don't realize that a Kevlar vest without plates, that could easily stop a pistol bullet, won't stop any sort of broadhead/bladed arrow fired from most hunting bows, let alone fired from a compound bow or any heavier pull bow.
To be fair, that's also not a threat you'll likely face. It takes great skill and strength to draw a bow of enough power and fire it accurately. Even so most vests have plates anyway because kevlar by itself isn't to good. It literally fails to stop even intermediate pistol calibers that are common. Plates are an important addition.
there are anti knife weaves made for this... you just have to use the proper armor type/design... also Chinese riot shield is not a ballistic shield 🫣🤔
Riot shields are designed to stop stones, fists, basically any projectile that isn't high velocity. They're very lightweight for ease of use. If you switched the riot shield to a metal one it would stop all arrows in here
Damage from previous arrows definitely changed the result of the arrows that came later. Like that one thag punched straight through seems to have but between 2 others. Pretty cool though.
These are not combat arrows… These are meant for hunting… The ones with the razors on the end are meant to kill animals more quickly to minimize suffering. They are NOT meant to punch through armor!
@@尸缽疌all of them are meant for hunting. Some of them look like they have the razors removed but they are all for hunting or target shooting. Arrows are much less humane against people and riots than tear gas and rubber bullets.
@harrisonkurtz2520 i mean, to be fair, if your shooting arrows at people your intentions are probably to kill. I think being humane is the last thing on the list.
@@hermes8942 plus the video is more in the view point of the rioters not the cops, since its showing what arrows can punch through riot shields, which the cops would have not the rioters. Dont know if its on purpose, but you made it sound like the cops were shooting arrows into the crowd with how you said tear gas and rubber bullets are more humane to people and riots.
Polycarbonates and other plastic polymers are actually very strong. They are used in Battlebots arena for exemple, where you have way more danger that an arrow. Saying that thoses polymers are plastic is like saying a wood aglomerate is essencially paper... Yeah but one of them can support tons and the other break instantly, so not really.
G5is the only one i agree actually shot through. The rest are just stuck in the shield, which still hinders the officer, but probably wouldn't take him out.
Well even though most of the arrows penetrated the shield, the way the shield is normally held would mean that the most they would get is a scratch. Unless its that G5 arrow.

Remember guys, Force=mass x acceleration, which means, that a strong bow is stronger than a low caliber firearm, as the arrow is a lot heavier than the bullet and (I believe) most pistols don't fire bullets at supersonic speeds making them slow down to an arrow's speed at not that far, as the arrow is heavier it will carry more mommentum and travel faster and longer
It's more of the sheer saturation of arrows. At that time, body armor wasn't exactly the best against darrows. And when you got a bow. That's relatively cheap and you can arm almost everyone with it. Yeah, even if the people aren't the best shot as long as they can pull it and they can release it in a general direction. It's good enough when you got enough arrows.
@@mr.nightshade8465 they didn't use steel plate body armor they used soft vest. Obviously steel iis going to stop almost everything especially a fucking arrow. Use some common scene about the experiment and the projectile being used.
@@MsFrogger75 Don't be an ass. There are different kinds of body armor, and one includes steel plates with spall fragmentation protective coating. There was no body armor in this video, so there was no reason whatsoever to say "they didn't use it", because steel plate armor exists.
@@2dheethbar call me an ass just show you can't have an intelligent conversation without calling someone names. So sad for you. By the way they just used soft armor for the video because they knew that steel plate body armor would stop the arrows. I don't think you would feel safe if someone was shooting arrows at your body armor with broadheads because there is alot of your body exposed that is not covered by armor which a Broadhead would fuck up real fast

The Difference Between Ballistic Shields and Riot Shields
While ballistic and riot shields have similar benefits, there are some critical differences between them.
Protection: Ballistic shield designers created a tool to provide ballistic protection against bullets, blast and fragmentation. Meanwhile, a riot shield protects against blunt-force trauma, such as batons or thrown objects.
Materials: Manufacturers typically make riot shields from polycarbonate, acrylic or Lexan, which are lightweight, durable and impact-resistant materials. On the other hand, ballistic shields consist of heavier materials that can withstand higher impact levels - these materials include steel armor, high-performance polyethylene, laminated glass and Fiberglass.
Shapes and sizes: The shape and size of ballistic and riot shields also differ. Ballistic shields are typically larger and offer more coverage, while riot shields are smaller, lighter and easier to maneuver. Users can also handle or mount ballistic shields on vehicles or buildings, while they mainly hold riot shields by hand and use them in close-quarters situations.
Application: Due to their characteristics, operators primarily use ballistic shields for entry points or access control in government buildings, borders and checkpoints. Riot shields, conversely, are mostly for crowd control by law enforcement and prison security.
Viewport: A ballistic shield typically has a viewport, whereas riot shields do not require one.
In summary, while both shields are essential tools, they serve different purposes. Officers and military personnel need to understand the differences between the two types of shields and choose the appropriate one for the situation at hand.
They aren't bullet proof though, maybe for a couple shots, but a bullet is probably going though that shit easily

Not really i seen a video where they use a hollow point arrow and it went through a metal one like nothing.
G5 went like it was halloween
This is what is keeping Raytheon in business 😂
these arrows with this bow in GTA 6 would be menacing.
Damn that G5 arrow was nuts! Pretty much all of them were but god damn
Damage from previous arrows definitely changed the result of the arrows that came later. Like that one thag punched straight through seems to have but between 2 others. Pretty cool though.
Yea definitely "loosened it up" for those others
These are not combat arrows…
These are meant for hunting…
The ones with the razors on the end are meant to kill animals more quickly to minimize suffering. They are NOT meant to punch through armor!
which one
@@尸缽疌all of them are meant for hunting. Some of them look like they have the razors removed but they are all for hunting or target shooting. Arrows are much less humane against people and riots than tear gas and rubber bullets.
@harrisonkurtz2520 i mean, to be fair, if your shooting arrows at people your intentions are probably to kill. I think being humane is the last thing on the list.
@@hermes8942 plus the video is more in the view point of the rioters not the cops, since its showing what arrows can punch through riot shields, which the cops would have not the rioters. Dont know if its on purpose, but you made it sound like the cops were shooting arrows into the crowd with how you said tear gas and rubber bullets are more humane to people and riots.
@@hermes8942 Arrows? Humane?
The riot shield got the Asuka treatment 😢😢😢
Now we know how to find a good arrow for armor and shield piercing thanks to this guy
G5 arrows like a hot knife through butter.
Bro was using V.A.T.S for the armour piercing arrow
Who would've guessed that SHARP TIPPED arrows would go through what is essentially a plastic shield
I know right
Still kinda crazy how well tbey shot through. I know it wasnt a ballistic shield, but youd think it wouldnt be able to punch through so hard.
Polycarbonates and other plastic polymers are actually very strong.
They are used in Battlebots arena for exemple, where you have way more danger that an arrow.
Saying that thoses polymers are plastic is like saying a wood aglomerate is essencially paper... Yeah but one of them can support tons and the other break instantly, so not really.
"Schott-Threwe" sounds like a Swiss firearms manufacturer.
Good to know I need to buy some more of these
“Damn, he ain’t down yet???”
Bro is the supplier for Rambo
So g5s and smurfs are they way to go at riots 😅😅😅
Flammenwaffer for the BBQ. I mean, win. 😜
Anything at 90 lbs
Yeah but the point of a riot shield is to be up close so you can’t charge a bow in time because there running at you before you can charge the bow up
"Shot through" absolute fire bar
G5is the only one i agree actually shot through. The rest are just stuck in the shield, which still hinders the officer, but probably wouldn't take him out.
The smurf arrow almost made it through
That Smurf arrow goes crazy
99 missed call from Green Arrow 😂
Well even though most of the arrows penetrated the shield, the way the shield is normally held would mean that the most they would get is a scratch. Unless its that G5 arrow.
Basically any of them with a good point
"What arrow can shoot through a riot shield?" Only these 2 cant lol
I think he's trying to tell the police a secret message 🤔
I think he's trying to tell rioters a secret message....
They don't give a shit until someone throws an arrow to their comrade first, then they'll retaliate.
Now I know what to use what my brother brings a riot sheild to an airsoft fight.
The Difference Between Ballistic Shields and Riot Shields
While ballistic and riot shields have similar benefits, there are some critical differences between them.
Protection: Ballistic shield designers created a tool to provide ballistic protection against bullets, blast and fragmentation. Meanwhile, a riot shield protects against blunt-force trauma, such as batons or thrown objects.
Materials: Manufacturers typically make riot shields from polycarbonate, acrylic or Lexan, which are lightweight, durable and impact-resistant materials. On the other hand, ballistic shields consist of heavier materials that can withstand higher impact levels - these materials include steel armor, high-performance polyethylene, laminated glass and Fiberglass.
Shapes and sizes: The shape and size of ballistic and riot shields also differ. Ballistic shields are typically larger and offer more coverage, while riot shields are smaller, lighter and easier to maneuver. Users can also handle or mount ballistic shields on vehicles or buildings, while they mainly hold riot shields by hand and use them in close-quarters situations.
Application: Due to their characteristics, operators primarily use ballistic shields for entry points or access control in government buildings, borders and checkpoints. Riot shields, conversely, are mostly for crowd control by law enforcement and prison security.
Viewport: A ballistic shield typically has a viewport, whereas riot shields do not require one.
In summary, while both shields are essential tools, they serve different purposes. Officers and military personnel need to understand the differences between the two types of shields and choose the appropriate one for the situation at hand.
Why exactly would you try killing your brother in an airsoft fight?
@@somecallmetim4490 you know it's just a joke. Siblings are always at each others necks.
that G5 arrow was on a MISSION
Remember guys, Force=mass x acceleration, which means, that a strong bow is stronger than a low caliber firearm, as the arrow is a lot heavier than the bullet and (I believe) most pistols don't fire bullets at supersonic speeds making them slow down to an arrow's speed at not that far, as the arrow is heavier it will carry more mommentum and travel faster and longer
Bro trynna be like Atreus from god of war💀
Shot through the heart and you’re too blllaaammmeee! 😂
You give love a bad name!
@@fleshfurbyTroutLegion-wq5po
I played my part, and you played your game!
You give love, a bad name!@@enigmaticrage812
And yet in COD it can stop a cruise missile?
Not anymore
If you're wondering yes these also go through body armor like paper
So basically any arrow with at good solid pointy tip
Wow the blunt ones didnt go through, yet the sharp ones did?!?!?!?. I never would have seen that coming
No wonder why most of Roman soldiers casualties are from arrow, especially when they encountered Huns "horse / mounted archer"
It's more of the sheer saturation of arrows. At that time, body armor wasn't exactly the best against darrows. And when you got a bow. That's relatively cheap and you can arm almost everyone with it. Yeah, even if the people aren't the best shot as long as they can pull it and they can release it in a general direction. It's good enough when you got enough arrows.
Imagine being killed by the Smurf arrow
The high penetration of the later arrows was likely aided by degradation and splitting of the shield by earlier arrow hits
The G5 arrow literally shows no mercy to the riot shield😂
Arrows will go through a bullet proof vest and a bullet will be stopped.
Not with steel plates
@@mr.nightshade8465 they didn't use steel plate body armor they used soft vest. Obviously steel iis going to stop almost everything especially a fucking arrow. Use some common scene about the experiment and the projectile being used.
@@MsFrogger75 Don't be an ass. There are different kinds of body armor, and one includes steel plates with spall fragmentation protective coating. There was no body armor in this video, so there was no reason whatsoever to say "they didn't use it", because steel plate armor exists.
@@2dheethbar call me an ass just show you can't have an intelligent conversation without calling someone names. So sad for you. By the way they just used soft armor for the video because they knew that steel plate body armor would stop the arrows. I don't think you would feel safe if someone was shooting arrows at your body armor with broadheads because there is alot of your body exposed that is not covered by armor which a Broadhead would fuck up real fast
@@MsFrogger75you’re the one acting like he gaped out your moms holes
Thats a fake riot shield
It is a real riot shield, they're just used at protests to stop stuff that's thrown at officers, not stop bullets or anything, so they only need to be made out of plastic
This is a real riot shield

@@skyv3n0masf_pronghorn So it's a wish version of a riot shield. I've seen real riot shields. Not ballistic. I'm not talking a call of duty shield lmfao. That bitch was too flimsy. If your department issued you that find another one.
G5:- "Nah.."
Basically any arrow that's sharp
That G5 completely passed through the riot shield
Arrows are badass
Quick tip: you can store valuables by bringing them to your torsto
Those big broad head arrowheads are for cutting through tall grass and such.
This is pretty cool can you do more of this like shooting from watermelon
Smurf and G5 were the best two but if you're going to shoot through shields then the G5 is your huckleberry.
