Videos tagged with Hickory Flatboards

This video tests three exotic shotgun ammunition types to determine which creates the largest explosion upon impact. The Hickory Flatboards Bear Claw, the 'Meat Tenderizer' (a combination of bird shot, buck shot, and a slug), and the Extreme Marine are tested against a gallon jug of water. The 'Meat Tenderizer' is identified as the most explosive, completely destroying the jug.

This video demonstrates the effectiveness of 9mm incendiary ammunition, comparing it to traditional military-grade incendiary rounds like the 50 BMG. The presenter tests the 9mm incendiary rounds, noting their blue tip designation and potential for impact detonation, and advises viewers to observe barrel flash and bullet trace during firing.

This video showcases the impressive performance of Havok 9mm ammunition, specifically its explosive tip rounds. The demonstration involves testing the ammunition's effect on ballistic gelatin and a steel target, highlighting its dual-stage explosion. The presenter notes the difficulty in acquiring this ammunition and briefly mentions Emo Squares for common ammunition needs.

This video showcases "Dragon's Breath" 9mm ammunition, highlighting its extreme flammability and potential fire risk when used as an Everyday Carry (EDC). The presenter demonstrates the ammunition's incendiary properties by firing it from a Glock 19, emphasizing that it is not recommended for practical self-defense due to its nature and the fact that it's FMJ. The video also includes a promotional code for EDC bags from 945 Industries.

This video explores the possibility of using a 12-gauge flare launcher to set off perimeter alarms. Initial attempts with standard flare cartridges in the launcher resulted in ignition failures, with only primer strikes observed. A breakthrough was achieved by adding a small piece of paper around the flare's primer to create a tighter seal, allowing it to function as a signaling device or animal deterrent. The experiment also briefly tested firing the flare cartridges in a 12-gauge shotgun, noting the significant noise output.

This video tests whether a Caliber 12 perimeter alarm can fire live ammunition. The experiment involves modifying a blank cartridge to contain a projectile without powder and then testing a live Caliber 12 round. The results indicate that while the alarm can be modified, it lacks the energy to cause significant damage with live rounds, and manufacturers strongly advise against such modifications.

This video explores whether a 12-gauge flare gun can fire signaling devices, effectively acting as a wildlife deterrent or signaling tool. The experiment reveals that while direct firing may result in light primer strikes, a simple trick of seating a piece of paper around the primer significantly improves the seal and allows for successful ignition and deployment of the signaling device. The presenter notes the loud report, sufficient to scare wildlife, and suggests its utility for signaling.

This video introduces the Icaros, a civilian-accessible device technically classified as a signal flare launcher. It functions similarly to a recoilless cannon, firing a projectile that deploys a parachute and a long-burning signal flare. The presenter demonstrates its operation and mentions purchasing options from 'Square' for ammunition.

This video reviews three unusual less-lethal shotgun ammunition types: 'Florida Man' (pink flamingos), 'Disco Duck' (disco balls and rubber duckies), and 'Rubber Buck' (rubber duckies). Testing in ballistic gel revealed significant penetration from the 'Florida Man' rounds, making them potentially dangerous. The 'Disco Duck' rounds performed well, with no penetration, indicating they are a safer less-lethal option. The 'Rubber Buck' rounds were problematic, melting and causing excessive projectile spread.

This video tests the 'Tropic Thunder' 12 gauge ammunition, designed to penetrate jungle canopy. It features a combination of buckshot and birdshot, intended to maintain momentum through foliage while providing a wider spread for target engagement. The ammunition was tested for its effectiveness in a simulated jungle environment.
