This video explores the feasibility of firing a .50 BMG round from a shotgun. Initial attempts with a semi-automatic shotgun failed due to the round's dimensions. A break-barrel shotgun allowed chambering, but the firearm lacked the necessary force to ignite the .50 BMG primer, resulting in light strikes and no discharge. The experiment highlights limitations in firearm action and ammunition compatibility.

This YouTube video, titled "How Water Proof is Live Ammo?! (Part 2) *Submerged For 2 MONTHS*", investigates the durability of live ammunition when submerged underwater for an extended period of two months. The creator documents the process and reveals whether the ammunition remains functional after such exposure. The description also includes affiliate links for electronic hearing protection and other camera gear, along with links to support the channel via Patreon and PayPal, and a link to their Instagram page.

This YouTube Short demonstrates a ballistic experiment simulating appendix carry with a Glock 19. The test uses liquid-filled condoms to represent anatomy, highlighting the potential consequences of accidental discharge. The speaker humorously assesses the 'damage' while emphasizing safety.

This video explores the extreme experiment of firing a .50 BMG round from a 12-gauge over/under shotgun. After initial testing with standard shells, a remote firing rig is used to safely discharge the .50 BMG round. The results show significant destruction and casing expansion due to the lack of a proper chamber, but the shotgun surprisingly remains intact and functional.

This video demonstrates a creative solution to a squib load by using a 16-inch Glock barrel in a carbine conversion chassis. The host successfully clears the obstruction by firing a live 9mm round through the extended barrel, proving the concept for 'science' and entertainment. It highlights the importance of proper ammunition handling and offers a unique perspective on firearm troubleshooting.

This video demonstrates the destructive power of an M60 machine gun by using it as a 'demolition hammer' against a large boulder. The experiment showcases the M60's ability to penetrate and fragment rock with sustained fire of 7.62x51mm rounds. It highlights the raw power of belt-fed automatic weapons in a unique, albeit unconventional, application.

This video demonstrates how to create improvised slugs from standard shotgun shells by cutting them. Historically used during the Great Depression, these 'cut shells' offer a budget-friendly alternative to slugs. The process involves carefully cutting the shell to retain the wad and shot, then firing to test accuracy and performance, noting potential ejection issues with semi-automatic shotguns.

This video highlights critical firearm safety failures, including poor muzzle awareness and lack of trigger discipline, culminating in a negligent discharge within a residential setting. The demonstration, though silent, serves as a stark warning against unsafe handling practices, emphasizing the importance of proper training.

This video demonstrates how to create DIY wax slugs by modifying standard birdshot shells with melted wax. The process binds pellets into a single mass, significantly increasing energy transfer and penetration compared to traditional birdshot. Testing shows wax slugs can shatter cinder blocks, unlike birdshot, and can even add a pleasant scent to the shooting range.

This video tests whether shotgun shells mounted on a plate carrier will explode when shot. Experiments with birdshot, buckshot, and a Dragon's Breath round show that while the shells and carrier are damaged, the shells themselves do not detonate. The speaker explains this is because firing requires both primer ignition and compression from a barrel, neither of which are present when a shell casing is breached.
