Barrel Obstruction Torture Test (Sand, Dirt, Water, Clay & More!)
This video tests the durability of firearms against various barrel obstructions. A 12-gauge shotgun catastrophically failed when subjected to dirt and sand, with barrels splitting. In contrast, an AR-15 (Diamondback DB15) proved highly resilient, successfully firing through dirt, sand, clay, organic materials, and even water without sustaining damage. The test highlights significant differences in firearm design and material resilience under extreme stress.
