This video tests the Fith Ops 12 Gauge Trip Alarm's capability to fire a live .50 BMG round. While the device successfully ignites the primer, the lack of a proper chamber causes the .50 BMG casing to rupture due to extreme pressure. The creator also tests 12-gauge slug and birdshot rounds, noting similar casing failures without a barrel. The video concludes with a strong safety warning against using live ammunition.
