50 BMG Flare Gun???
This video explores the feasibility of firing a .50 BMG round from a 12-gauge Orion flare gun. Initial tests with a standard flare show significant damage to a melon. However, attempts to fire the .50 BMG round directly from the flare gun failed due to insufficient firing pin force and primer ignition issues. A secondary method using a BB gun to strike the primer also resulted in unburnt gunpowder, concluding the experiment.
