Incredible new cartridge !

[Florey55]

Just when you were thinking that there's nothing really new in the field of cartridges, this pops up.

It can shoot through armour of an APC from a Glock pistol whereas 5.56 Nato SS109 and 7.62 Nato rounds shot from a rifle just bounced off.

They have also made a game changing PDW chambering this fantastic new little cartridge..

Watch, and be amazed..

Did watch.
Was amazed.
Would probably punch through 2 plates. Be interesting to see how much the projectile deformed, if at all.

Not exactly a new cartridge is it ? Sounded like its been around a fair while or maybe I missed something?

Concept has been around for a while.
But now it apparently works.
And out of a pistol.

So that's the small version. In a few years all armoured vehicles could be ineffective and obsolete.

It was interesting but very so so for my type of pistol shooting. Don't get many APC's around my area.
