This video demonstrates the destructive power of a 150-ton hydraulic press on Soviet and US 30mm ammunition. The expert presenter showcases the deformation and failure points of both inert rounds, highlighting differences in material response under extreme pressure. The visual comparison of the mangled remains on national flags provides a stark, albeit non-ballistic, perspective on the physical properties of the ordnance.

This guide details a master gunsmithing technique for tightening a loose shotgun forend, as demonstrated by Jack Rowe. The process involves carefully removing wood from the forend and then using a punch and hammer to deform the forend iron, creating a more secure fit against the barrel loop. It emphasizes precision to avoid overtightening and includes advice on post-adjustment filing and lubrication.
