Cobray Terminator at the Range: The Worst Shotgun Ever

This review tests a custom 4-barrel slam-fire shotgun, nicknamed the 'Wrist Breaker,' due to its extreme recoil. Testing with Aguila 12-gauge Minishells, the shotgun demonstrated significant recoil even with reduced loads, causing minor injury when firing all four barrels simultaneously. Destructive testing showed it obliterates watermelons and penetrates a riot shield, while ballistic gel tests with slugs confirmed high kinetic energy transfer.

This expert-level knowledge entry details the operation of the Cobray Terminator, a unique single-shot slam-fire shotgun. It covers the mechanical cycle, live-fire demonstration, and ejection process, drawing from the insights of an enthusiastic and authoritative instructor. The guide provides a step-by-step technique for operating this distinctive firearm.

The Cobray Terminator 12-gauge shotgun is reviewed as a potentially terrible firearm, despite its sturdy construction. Produced in limited numbers between 1987-1990, its unique open-bolt, slam-fire mechanism and uncomfortable wire stock make it impractical for use. The review highlights its mechanical oddities and historical context within Cobray's unusual product line.

This review examines the Cobray Terminator, a unique single-shot 12-gauge shotgun with an open-bolt, slam-fire action. The video highlights its unusual manual extraction process, requiring the barrel to be pulled forward to eject spent shells. Despite its unconventional design and significant recoil, the demonstration showcases proper safety operation and handling.

This review examines the Tokarev Semi-Automatic Bullpup Shotgun, imported by SDS Imports, as the speaker searches for the least expensive 12-gauge option. The video questions whether this budget-friendly firearm offers a fun shooting experience or proves to be a mistake, highlighting its bullpup configuration and the importer.

This video discusses a shift in ammunition preferences among American shooters, suggesting that 9mm may be losing ground to emerging calibers by 2026. The creator, who has historically used 9mm, notes a personal and observed trend towards different calibers. The content aims to break down these new popular options and explain why 9mm is no longer always the first choice for range bags.

This video details the unique 'French Finger Trap' issue with the MAS-36 rifle's bayonet, where two rifles can become unintentionally locked together. A 1951 French arsenal memorandum identified this problem, proposing a simple modification to the bayonet handle. Drilling a small hole allows a tool, like a firing pin, to depress the internal spring, enabling the separation of locked rifles.

The M134 Minigun is a scaled-down 7.62 NATO rotary cannon, requiring 24V DC power and consuming 1.5 kW. Its high rate of fire (3,000+ RPM) is essential for aircraft engagement windows. The complex delinker mechanism is critical for feeding ammunition, and practical hand-held use is impossible due to weight and recoil. Live fire demonstrates rapid ammunition consumption and the need for indirect aiming.

The H&K G11 is a revolutionary prototype assault rifle designed in the late 20th century, notable for its caseless ammunition and unique rotating drum bolt mechanism. Despite advanced features like a 2000 RPM burst fire rate and integrated optics, its development was ultimately halted by geopolitical shifts and cost concerns.

This video demonstrates the assembly and live-fire of the German 1936 pattern light mortar (L.Gr.W.36). It highlights the mortar's leveling mechanism for accuracy and the difficulty in visually tracking its 50mm projectiles after firing. The content showcases historical military hardware and its operational use.
