This video explores the feasibility of converting a flare gun into a shotgun by firing modified 12-gauge shells. It details the safety features of flare guns designed to prevent standard shotgun shells from firing. The experiment involves a professionally reloaded 12-gauge shell, shortened to fit, which successfully ignites its primer in the flare gun. A comparison reveals shotgun primers are more powerful than flare primers, and test firing a powder-filled shell shows increased recoil.
