Will it Ghost Load?🤔👻

This video by Coach from Tactical Hyve demonstrates effective methods for carrying and loading ammunition for various shotgun platforms, including tube-fed semi-automatics and pump-actions, as well as box-fed shotguns. Key techniques focus on efficient reloading under pressure and managing ammunition capacity for tactical applications.

This guide demonstrates the basic technique for racking the slide on a Remington 870 shotgun. It covers the proper grip and motion for cycling the action, emphasizing safety checks before and during manipulation. This is a fundamental skill for shotgun operation.

This video demonstrates effective clay target engagement with a Remington 870, showcasing proper mounting and target transition techniques. The presenter, identified as experienced, utilizes a customized 870 with Magpul furniture and Walker's electronic ear protection on an outdoor range. The demonstration highlights consistent accuracy in hitting clay pigeons.

This guide details the 'ghost loading' technique for semi-automatic shotguns like the Stoeger M3000 and Benelli models, as demonstrated by Collapse N Protect. The technique allows for an increased round capacity by chambering a round manually after loading the magazine. The instructor emphasizes a concise and instructional tone, demonstrating a high level of expertise through precise mechanical manipulation and proficient live-fire execution.

This video demonstrates a practical, albeit informal, test of bullet penetration through common building bricks using various firearms and calibers. From .22 LR to .50 BMG, the experiment visually showcases the significant differences in ballistic energy and stopping power. The presenter, Parker, offers an enthusiastic and knowledgeable approach, highlighting the destructive potential of each round.

This guide breaks down the operational differences between popular semi-automatic shotgun action types, specifically the Mossberg 940 Pro SPX and the Beretta 1301 Tactical/Benelli M4 systems. It highlights how the Mossberg's action is more intuitive for those accustomed to rifles, automatically chambering rounds, while the Beretta/Benelli system utilizes a cartridge release lever offering specific tactical advantages like 'cruiser ready' storage. The video emphasizes that the 'smarter' system is subjective and depends on user training and application.

This guide details a DIY technique for creating 'poor man's slugs' by cutting birdshot shotgun shells, a method historically used for defense and hunting during times of scarcity. The process involves carefully cutting the shell casing to create a projectile that functions similarly to a slug. The video demonstrates the technique on a Beretta 1301 tactical shotgun and discusses the importance of cut accuracy for flight stability and potential reliability issues in semi-automatic firearms.

This video demonstrates critical firearm safety failures, including poor muzzle awareness, lack of trigger discipline, and unsafe handling in a residential environment. The individual exhibits difficulty with basic firearm manipulation, culminating in a negligent discharge indoors. It serves as a stark warning against improper firearm handling and the importance of professional training.

This guide details the process of creating a DIY wax slug from standard birdshot, as demonstrated by the 'Collapse N Protect' channel. The modification involves melting wax and pouring it over the shot to create a cohesive projectile. The video highlights the increased effectiveness of this DIY slug compared to traditional birdshot, particularly in its ability to concentrate energy on the target, as evidenced by its success in shattering a cinder block. The creator also humorously notes the potential for using scented wax to alter the range's odor.

This video from Collapse N Protect, featuring an instructor with high authority, experimentally tests whether 12-gauge shotgun shells mounted on a plate carrier will explode when shot. The tests, using birdshot, buckshot, and Dragon's Breath rounds, demonstrate that while shells can be breached and their contents spilled, they do not detonate or explode without primer ignition and the compression force typically provided by a firearm's barrel. The explanation highlights the essential components and conditions required for a shell to fire.
