Shooting 500 Magnum with No Barrel
This guide details the experimental procedure of firing a Smith & Wesson 500 Magnum revolver with its barrel intentionally removed, as demonstrated by Edwin Sarkissian. The process involves securing the firearm in a shooting rest, using a remote trigger for safety, and firing specialized high-pressure ammunition. The experiment highlights the unpredictable nature of ballistics without a barrel and the potential for significant firearm damage, particularly to the cylinder and frame, when using heavy loads.
