Terminator Shotgun

The Cobray Terminator is critically reviewed as one of the worst shotguns ever made, featuring a crude design allegedly using M2 Browning .50 BMG barrel shrouds. Its slam-fire mechanism and unique, difficult loading procedure contribute to extreme recoil and poor handling, making it a low-quality firearm.

This review tests the accuracy of a 9mm round fired from a 12-gauge shotgun using a rifled adapter. The adapter, despite having rifling, proved inaccurate due to its short length and loose fit. Accuracy tests showed scattered hits and potential keyholing, significantly worse than a standard 9mm handgun.

This video reviews the unique setup of firing 9mm rounds from a 12-gauge shotgun using a specialized caliber adapter. While offering versatility for survival scenarios, the adapter presents significant drawbacks including potential stuck rounds and severe accuracy issues due to its design and the loose fit within the shotgun's bore. The host demonstrates the loading process and discusses these pros and cons.

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.

The Cobray Terminator is a unique, single-shot 12-gauge shotgun firing from an open bolt with a fixed firing pin. Its design features a collapsing stock that can impact the shooter's face during recoil, and it requires manual extraction of spent shells. This review highlights its unconventional operation and ergonomic challenges.

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 video details a catastrophic failure of a Serbu RN-50 rifle chambered in .50 BMG, which exploded due to extreme pressure exceeding 85,000 PSI. The incident resulted in severe injuries to the shooter, Scott, including a broken orbital bone, nose, lacerated jugular vein, and punctured lung. The analysis points to the breech cap shearing off its threads as the failure point, highlighting the dangers of exceeding firearm pressure limits.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics puts the Desert Eagle Mark XIX through a series of extreme environmental torture tests. The firearm demonstrates impressive initial resilience, functioning perfectly after water submersion and snow exposure. However, it encounters significant malfunctions when subjected to mud and sand, highlighting potential failure points in extreme conditions. The test is conducted by Scott, a recognized authority in destructive firearm testing.

This video features a series of extreme caliber tests using a zombie torso dummy. The .700 Nitro Express is tested with a 1000-grain soft point round, followed by .600, .500, and .470 Nitro Express calibers. Additional tests include the .460 Weatherby Magnum and .500 Jeffery, showcasing the immense power and recoil of these large-bore firearms.

This Liberty Safe National Classic Select underwent extreme torture tests, including a flamethrower fire simulation and ballistic impacts. While it withstood .45 ACP, .50 AE, .500 S&W Magnum, and .450 Marlin rounds, a .308 Win round penetrated, and .50 BMG rounds easily breached the safe. Despite significant damage, the safe's frame remained intact against mechanical force.
