Collection: Ballistic Dummies

How to choose

1. Pick your format

• No-internals torsos: solid gel, no skeleton, head or headless. The budget pick for penetration depth and wound-channel testing.
• Unloaded torsos: gel with a full skeleton inside, so you see bone strikes without organs.
• Loaded torsos: skeleton plus organs and blood (red, blue, or green) for the most realistic reaction on impact. They come headless, with head, or with head and arms.
• Full bodies: head to toe. Male is 225 lb, female is 189 lb.

2. Pick your gel

• Organic gel: the go-to for blunt force trauma and knife or sword testing. Organic no-internals torsos come in 20% only, since 10% is too soft to hold that shape.
• Perma-Gel: synthetic and reusable. It's stable up to 110°F and can be remelted 2–5 times. Perma-Gel no-internals torsos come in 10% or 20%.
• 10% is FBI standard and 20% is NATO standard. Which one do you need? →
