This guide details a survival technique for creating an audible signaling device using a 12-gauge flare gun and a modified shotgun shell. The video demonstrates how to safely remove the projectile, powder, and wad from a 12-gauge shell, leaving only the primer. This allows the flare gun to be used as a loud noisemaker, comparable to a .22 LR, for emergency situations when standard flares are unavailable. The instructor emphasizes critical safety warnings regarding the dangers of firing unmodified shells.

Quick Summary

In survival emergencies, a 12-gauge flare gun can be modified for audible signaling. Remove shot, powder, and wad from a 12-gauge shell, leaving only the primer. Firing this in the flare gun creates a loud noise, exceeding a .22 LR, without destroying the device. Never fire an unmodified shell due to explosion risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a regular shotgun shell in a flare gun?

No, you absolutely cannot use a standard 12-gauge shotgun shell in a flare gun. Flare guns are not designed to handle the pressure of live ammunition and can explode, causing severe injury. A safety lip inside the flare gun barrel also prevents full chambering.

How can I make a loud noise with a flare gun in an emergency?

In a survival situation, you can modify a 12-gauge shotgun shell by removing the shot, powder, and wad, leaving only the primer. This modified shell, when fired in a 12-gauge flare gun, produces a loud audible signal louder than a .22 LR.

What are the risks of firing a shotgun shell in a flare gun?

Firing an unmodified shotgun shell in a flare gun is extremely dangerous. The flare gun's plastic construction cannot withstand the high pressures, leading to a catastrophic explosion that can cause severe injury or death to the user and bystanders.

What tools are needed for this emergency signaling modification?

To perform this modification, you will primarily need a pair of pliers to help extract the components from the shotgun shell. You will also need the 12-gauge shotgun shells and the 12-gauge flare gun itself.
