There are factors we don't know, like what type of metal that was, at what gauge. Aluminum chain mail is cheap and abundant, and it's just for show. The penetration looks pretty shallow, too. I would have preferred it if they had showed the armor off the dummy to point out the holes it made in the chain. Don't get me wrong, he's a fantastic archer, and no doubt there is definitely merit to his claim that archery is far more versatile than people standing in a line firing off volleys. This is a great video for drawing inspiration for an archer character. Chainmail didn't actually offer much in the way of protection against a piercing attack, the reliance was on the padding people wore underneath for that. Chain was generally used as a force displacer against slashes such as against an axe or sword. True, but I'd still would like to have seen the armor than trust that this guy's half-draw pierced armor grade chain mail. No Gods and Precious Few Heroes
