This YouTube video, titled "Gun vs Salt Water," investigates the resilience of a Thompson Center Encore firearm when subjected to a salt water test. The description directly poses the question of whether the rifle can survive this harsh environmental challenge. The content appears to be an experimental evaluation of firearm durability under extreme conditions, focusing on corrosion resistance.

This video details a 100-day water submersion durability test on a Glock pistol. Despite significant rust and a seized slide requiring manual intervention with a hammer, the firearm successfully fired a round. The test highlights Glock's inherent reliability even under extreme conditions, with plans for further extended testing.

This experiment tests the corrosion resistance of brass-cased .223 Remington and steel-cased 7.62x39 ammunition after a week in salt water. Despite significant surface degradation on both, particularly the steel-cased rounds, both types of ammunition successfully fired and cycled in their respective firearms, a Bersa BAR-15 and a Riley Defense AK.

This video tests the reliability of steel-cased 9mm ammunition after prolonged exposure to saltwater. A timelapse shows significant corrosion on a TulAmmo 9mm Luger round. When tested in a Taurus G3c pistol, the corroded round failed to fire despite a clear primer strike, indicating that saltwater exposure can render ammunition unreliable.

The Mossberg MC2sc micro-compact 9mm pistol underwent an extreme torture test, including submersion in mud and being run over by a truck, demonstrating surprising durability. Despite a single failure to feed early on and a budget optic failing, the pistol maintained functionality throughout the abuse. Post-test inspection revealed minimal rust, highlighting its resilience.
