Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dangers of firing a gun underwater?

Firing a handgun into water at close range can cause the firearm to explode due to the immense pressure buildup. Water does not compress like air, leading to a dangerous situation where the firearm can rupture catastrophically.

Why is it important to use hearing protection when shooting?

Even a single shot from a firearm can cause permanent hearing damage. Using proper hearing protection, such as earplugs and earmuffs, is crucial to prevent long-term auditory issues and ensure a safer shooting experience.

What is the risk associated with the forward assist on an AR-15?

The forward assist should not be used to force a round that won't chamber naturally. Misusing it can lead to malfunctions or catastrophic failures, as seen when a shooter repeatedly hammered it until the AR-15 exploded.

What can happen if you don't check ammunition compatibility?

Using the wrong ammunition, even if it looks similar, can be extremely dangerous. For instance, firing a 5.45x39mm round in a 5.56x45mm rifle can cause dangerous pressure spikes or firearm damage.
