Frequently Asked Questions

How was the bullet fired through the long, curved pipes safely?

The experimenter used a remote firing method, likely a string attached to the trigger, to fire the firearm from a safe distance. This is crucial for ballistic tests involving extended pipe runs and complex setups.

What firearm was used in the bullet curving experiment?

The firearm used was a Magnum Research Desert Eagle 1911G chambered in .45 ACP. This semi-automatic pistol was chosen for its robust construction and caliber suitable for the ballistic tests.

What was the longest distance a bullet traveled through the curved pipe?

The longest recorded distance for a bullet traveling through the flexible conduit was 250 feet. This final challenge involved a complex, winding path designed to test the projectile's integrity and trajectory.

What kind of targets were used in the experiment?

Various targets were used, including a shaving cream can, a spray paint can, and a large pink steel pig target for the longest distance shot. These targets helped confirm the bullet's impact after traversing the conduit.
