.45 ACP Stopping Power Performance Test....

If we are gonna whack purple dinosaurs and evil cia infiltrators like KEN I recommend serious medicine with a lot of penetration, namely a 12 gauge remington 870 shot gun with a 20 inch barrel full of 1 oz. slugs loaded to maximum.

As for dispatching one of america's heros in a "scientific" study.. you sir are evil and shout be smacked over the head with a live trout until you repent.

(cuz in my back yard gi joe always pulled the trigger on ken, then drove away to the dream house in a 6 wheeled ATV with midge and skipper... ahhh it was a simpler time)

Airborne, you are truly one sick individual. Welcome to the asylum.

Cobra doesn't kill GI Joe, Airborne does. Also watch out for the purple teletubby. He will give you away. People now want the purple teletubby removed from stores until they fix his little voice box. When he says "again again" anti's claim it sounds a lot like "a gun a gun" be careful out there, your back yard is dangerous

I for one would LOVE to have a Rosie doll, hung from a noose in front of the bullet trap, with which to perform my indoor .22 CB accuracy/ballistics test from my 10/22, but I refuse to pay money for one that will end up in the pockets of the manufacturer. Oh, yes, welcome to the asylum, everyone. Watch out for that big Indian dude and that guy who looks like Jack Nicholson, as well as those who claim to be "moderators" - they're cohorts of Nurse Ratchet in disguise.

Airborne, you big sissy.

I cleaned Ken's clock in my back yard the other day. I didn't need more than a shovel. He's so one-dimensional now.

I DID have to take the weed whacker to GI Joe.

Speaking of Jamacan Proctologists do you remember which movie Proctologist said "Rarely do I need more than this"?

Ankeny and Ed,

Yes, a Pokemon is a Jamaican proctologist who will take a Pikachu if you "assume the position."

Seriously.
 
Greetings fellow enthusiasts,
I've received a lot of flack over the past month from people who don't understand why it is necessary to sacrifice plastic action figures in the name of ballistic research. (I won't name names, but I'm sure you can guess who they are). I will stand my ground on this issue, and I will test again! Man cannot live by paper targets alone... and blasting Ken-bi and GI "rat face informant" Joe dolls is pure therapy.
Now if only someone would mold rubber Rosie dolls... now that would be some serious fun!

Regards from the back of the bus, :eek:

Airborne:
I am glad that someone has finally performed hard scientific research on my carry load of choice. Surely federal grant money is available to help you to continue in your quest for knowledge? Was having a lousy kind of day until I read your post and the follow-ups. Got a good laugh. Keep up the good work....45Fan

Even some of the old hands at Mattel would appreciate this test. Though not the originator of Lexan, they were the heavy hitter in developing manufacturing tecniques and applications for the material. Their experiments led directly to the many applications in aerospace, shooting glasses, cars etc.

Though himself a wimp, Ken came from good stock.

Nikita Khrushchev predicted confidently in a speech in Bucharest, Rumania on June 19, 1962 that: " The United States will eventually fly the Communist Red Flag...the American people will hoist it themselves."
 
On this type of "Scientific Ballistic Testing", I took a stuffed pig doll to the range in an effort to repeat my bunny spinning (see my signature) exercise with a .22WMR. I am now convinced that in the world of stuffed animal defense, Winchester leads the market with their Supreme offerings. For the record, the doll weighed 2 Lbs. 3 Ounces. The bullet entered the doll at the base of the throat in the typical .224 fashion. Upon exiting a 2" hole in the back-mid spine area, there was a 4 foot trail of stuffing. Post mortem weight was 1 Lb. 14 ounces! Took 5 ounces of guts with it! On a sadder note, Federals 50 grain JHP failed to expand at all in this test.
The up side of this whole thing was that the pig was my substitute for not getting a Rosie doll when the K&B toy store closed :( ;)


------------------
I thought I'd seen it all, until a 22WMR spun a bunny 2 1/4 times in the air!
 
You sexist pigs! How can you call it a study? Test on female subjects must be done in order insure accuracy. Remember Barbie is a tough old bird. Also you must take into account minorites(sp?) plus those with special needs. JCH
 
Airborne, of course you realize that if you'd been shooting a .(insert caliber here) "caliber of the week" then Ken and Joe would have been stopped much more quickly than with the "old and tired" .45 acp!

Whatever!
 
JCH, you're right. Since Barbie has, er, more "center of mass," shall we say, she would be a better test for penetration...um, expansion..uh....

Fuhgetaboutit.

So what about the OSS. I could have double tapped each action figure in half the time with a 9mm. The rapid loss of jello from the dual holes is a more reliable method of dispatching such action figures. Accuracy would have also been better.

Seriously, this thread is wonderful. I never did like ken.
 
This just in:

The infamous "Action Figure Tests" allegedly carried out have been proven to be utterly fake. The results were cut from whole cloth by internet gun list posters trying to bolster their claims that Sig 220 pistols and Federal Hydra-Shok rounds are effective. This of course goes against the commonly accepted that only a Colt 1911 (series 70 naturally) and 230 gr FMJ (loaded on the same ammo press as the original ammunition) is the only truly effective combination for self-defense.

Certain noted persons who have a financial stake in the above common knowledge will be generating completely unbiased, scientifically accurate articles which will prove their point and provide them to the public . . . for a fee.
 
Now, Buzz, if you're a .45er, you're a .45er, whether your're shooting the 1911 or not. Tha caliber is the same, and the theory is the same. Some folks just haven't realized that the 1911 is the best ;D
