This video demonstrates a live-fire test of a vintage Walther P38 pistol using ammunition that has been exposed to the elements for approximately one year. The speaker, identified as a firearms enthusiast and collector, successfully fires the aged 9mm round, showcasing the potential durability of ammunition and the reliability of the P38 under experimental conditions. The content emphasizes safe firearm handling throughout the process.
This video details an experiment testing the durability of 9mm ammunition when submerged in PB Blaster for extended periods. The speaker, a firearms enthusiast and gear tester, demonstrates proper range safety and structured testing. Ammunition soaked for one week in PB Blaster was fired through a Glock 17 without issue, suggesting a high tolerance for this type of exposure.
This video delves into the performance of Shell Shock Technologies' NAS3 bimetal case technology, specifically their 7.62x51mm ammunition, which passed rigorous testing at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division with zero case failures. The discussion contrasts this with the SIG Sauer NGSW program, highlighting the potential advantages of NAS3 in terms of weight savings and durability. The presenters analyze the technical specifications and performance claims, offering expert insights into modern ammunition development.
This video, titled "Does Oil ruin Ammo? PT.4 🛢🤔", appears to be an experimental investigation into the effects of oil on ammunition. The description includes hashtags related to experiments, firearms safety, gun safety, and durability, suggesting a practical, hands-on approach to testing. It also references "airsoft" and "cod" which might indicate comparisons or related content, though the core focus is likely on the ammunition experiment itself. The series format (PT.4) implies previous parts likely covered similar or related aspects of this topic.
This video continues a test of live ammunition's water resistance, submerging rounds for two months. The results show that steel-cased 7.62x39 and standard brass-cased .223 Remington failed to fire after two months underwater. However, nickel-plated .223 Remington with sealed primers remained functional, demonstrating superior durability in harsh, wet conditions.
This experiment tests the water resistance of various live ammunition types submerged for up to a month. While many rounds remained functional, performance degraded over time, with 9mm target loads failing first, followed by 12 Gauge shells and eventually .22 LR. Speer G2 9mm with sealed primers and some .223 Remington variants showed superior durability.
This video tests the resilience of 9mm ammunition under extreme conditions, including submersion in water for five days, complete coating in spray paint, Loctite, Gorilla Super Glue, and being frozen solid in ice. The tests demonstrate that most common ammunition types are remarkably durable and can still fire even after significant abuse, debunking common misconceptions.
