Honest Outlaw conducts a rigorous drop safety test on the new Sig P211 (also referred to as GTO), a 1911/2011 style pistol. The firearm is subjected to multiple drops onto concrete from waist height, including critical nose-down impacts, with no primer detonation observed. The testing methodology, which includes verifying primer functionality by firing, demonstrates a high level of authority and expertise in firearm evaluation.

Mike from Sons of Liberty Gun Works introduces the SOLGW L2S trigger, a two-stage design focused on reliability. He highlights its clean, crisp break, positive reset, and heavy hammer strike, crucial for ensuring primer detonation. The trigger features a hybrid bow that aids finger placement, and it's designed to work optimally with its included springs for consistent performance.

This video demonstrates an experiment by Naaming Kotchanok, an experienced shooting sports content creator, to test if a .22 LR bullet can detonate a 12 Gauge shotgun shell primer. Using a CZ 457 Jaguar rifle with a Discovery scope at Alpha 2 Shooting Range, the experiment shows that while the .22 LR bullet accurately strikes and penetrates the primer, it does not cause the shotgun shell to detonate. The bullet passes through the primer and lodges in the shell casing.
