The inside of a 50bmg barrel

This video title, 'Será que um 50 BMG cabe em uma espingarda?' (Will a 50 BMG fit in a shotgun?), directly poses a question about firearm compatibility, specifically concerning the large caliber .50 BMG round and a shotgun. While no specific models are mentioned, the inquiry implies a discussion, comparison, or a theoretical exploration of fitting an extremely powerful rifle cartridge into a shotgun platform. This suggests a focus on firearm mechanics, calibers, and potentially the practical limitations or extreme modifications involved.

This video showcases the Barrett M107A1 rifle chambered in .50 BMG, focusing on its mechanical aspects and live fire. It details the unboxing, bipod setup, assembly, function check, and loading with Hornady ammunition. The demonstration includes firing from a prone position in a desert environment, highlighting the rifle's recoil and muzzle blast.

This video addresses a viewer's question about the internal mechanisms of the Taurus 692 and Smith & Wesson 686 revolvers. The speaker, demonstrating expert knowledge of firearm internals, confirms they utilize different mechanisms. The Taurus 692 employs a spring and strut system, contrasting with the typical leaf spring system found in Smith & Wesson revolvers. The discussion also touches upon Colt's use of a V spring and Ruger's adoption of the spring and strut system, highlighting the diversity in revolver internal designs.

This video demonstrates a highly dangerous and ill-advised experiment involving heating a 50 BMG round on a stove, humorously referred to as a 'forbidden hot dog.' The experiment results in a violent detonation, destroying a metal pan and highlighting the extreme hazards of mishandling live ammunition. The creator emphasizes the destructive power of the 50 BMG round and strongly advises against replicating such actions.

This YouTube video title suggests an experimental video where the creator attempts to determine if it's possible to burn .50 BMG ammunition. The experiment is presented as a question to the viewers, inviting them to discover the outcome through the video. The focus appears to be on the properties and behavior of large-caliber ammunition under extreme conditions, likely involving ignition or heat sources.

This video demonstrates an experimental setup where a .50 BMG cartridge is attached to an air rifle. The objective is to use the air rifle's projectile to strike the primer of the .50 BMG cartridge, intending to cause an explosion. The air rifle is modified for remote firing, and safety features are disabled. The experiment results in a massive explosion.

This video tests how many cast iron skillets are needed to stop various bullets, from .22 LR to 500 S&W Magnum. Most common handgun rounds like 9mm and .45 ACP are stopped by two skillets. Rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62x39mm also require two to three skillets, while the powerful 500 S&W Magnum penetrates three and is stopped by the fourth. The .22 LR failed to penetrate even the first skillet.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a .50 BMG rifle, specifically the Serbu BFG-50A, against a section of railroad track. Various .50 caliber rounds, including Raufoss Mk 211 API and silver tip API, were fired. While the rifle and ammunition demonstrated the ability to penetrate even the thickest parts of the rail (over 1.5 inches), bullet deflection and shifting upon impact with the dense steel were observed.

This video demonstrates launching an M67 fragmentation grenade using an X Products Can Cannon towards a distant frozen lake. The Can Cannon, firing .223 blanks, successfully propels the grenade, which detonates upon impact, creating a visible hole in the ice. The experiment highlights the launcher's capability for extreme projectile delivery in challenging outdoor conditions.

This video tests the destructive power of a .50 caliber spotter round against 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass, comparing it to a standard FMJ round. The spotter round, designed to spark and flash, created a larger crater and more surface damage than the FMJ round, demonstrating its specialized impact characteristics. The Serbu BFG-50A rifle was used for both tests.
