Thread: Damaged ammo

Interesting video by Saami

No wonder there is a shortage

Skip to 13:00 for the good stuff, Reminds me of popcorn

thanks for sharing. i have thought from time to time, usually when i stock up on ammo what would happen if i attend a fire that burns ammo. Now i know it won't do much but it will be an unreal experience being in a room with exploding ammo i bet, all bang but no go.

That’s a very interesting watch.
I was at guncity wellington last Friday for my first look at their new location. I commented at their very poor stock of ammo and the guy said they had several pallets in picton but the ferries wouldn't carry it unless they have less than a certain number of passengers onboard, no doubt a restriction in arrogance of the realities that were demonstrated in this video.

I havent watched this video yet, I will in a mo. In the ones Ive seen its the case that becomes the projectile and not much of one. A firefighters normal turn out gear would protect you from that I hear.

Myth Busters did cook off some on an oven. most rounds did little of anything, a dent in the side of the oven, until they popped in a 50 cal round. A small pipe bomb basicly blew the window out.

When they are putting 18,000 rounds in each fire they set.

Same as the alarm mines that I have used that take a 12 gauge cartridge, just find the wad and pellets lying in the grass nearby...and the neighbours cat at the top of a tree!
