  1. "Escort?... You okay?... I believe she's dead" Now there's a line that can't be taken out of context. :P

  3. Happy to see Norma sending you some ammo. Swedish arms and ammunition manufacturers tend to be sticklers with sending stuff to non-corporate people even for marketing purposes.

  4. DirtyDan: Lead also has a pretty low melting point. So I guess if one REALLY wanted to, you could pick up the pellets, melt them down and re-cast them into new pellets. But I doubt anyone would want to go through the trouble of doing it. Also, not all shotgun pellets are made from lead either, which further complicates it.

  6. According to science: they're both equally powerful. The bullet just focus all of the force in a much smaller surface area.

  7. I wonder, would the effects be different if the cable was under tension? Elevator cables tend to be very tensioned holding up an entire elevator cabin after all. That's not to say that a single 9mm round would do the trick. The notion is quite silly.

  8. Would be fun to actually play golf with golf ball cannons instead of clubs. :)

  9. Yep, it's the inspiration for boltguns. Although boltgun rounds are more like two stage rockets with a warhead since they have shellcasings and an initial propellant. The rocket motor kicks in after the bolt round leaves the barrel. What i'm holding my breath for is for some backyard tinkerer to invent an actual bolt round because they would sort of work in theory, but we won't know the effectiveness until one is made.

  10. What the fuck? Smoothbore pistols are a felony? What kind of idiot came up with that idea? As to the shotgun: in a country with probably hundreds of thousands concealed carry permits, it's downright silly to worry about people shortening their shotguns, even if the purpose is to make them easier to conceal.

  11. Remember: if Beto is actually elected and use his powers to confiscate firearms, the constitution has basically given the american people the constitutional right to shoot the bastard because he's then becoming a de facto tyrant. It also gives you the right to gun down any cops trying to take your guns. Although I suspect that the vast majority of american police officers will refuse to carry out any orders in confiscating firearms.

  15. heavyhands2293: You're so wrong. Where I play, nobody under the age of 18 is allowed to participate. In fact, it's illegal for minors. The prices are what they are because it's a hobby primarily for adults, not children. Also, nobody "thinks they're soldiers"... Well except for the very large portion of actual soldiers who enjoy the hobby. It's for fun and reenactment. If you can't afford it, then sucks to be you. But I don't see a reason why you would be bitching and complaining over the people who can and who are clearly having fun, while also getting some fucking excercise.

  17.  @thatonedude7070  You need that clarity of vision to protect yourself. You don't want to go into combat thinking that the armour you're wearing is going to keep you safe. The first and foremost thing that keeps you breathing is being aware of your surroundings and being able to fire the first shot accurately. The helmet and armour is just there as failsafes when you've really done goofed with your tactics and your shooting. Your weapon is your first line of defense. Not the armour.

  18. Makes sense. The rotation of the bullet cause it to skid along the inside of the pipe.

  23. Anonie Moose: I don't think it meant "well equipped". It think the term "well regulated" has more to do with keeping the militia up to certain standards of behaviour and practices. This because during the 18th century and the 17th century leading up to it, there were plenty of militia groups across the world (freebooters, mercenaries, partisans etc.) who weren't an official part of any military branch, but still partook in military action. And a lot of them behaved quite badly durin wars. Engaging in things like looting, pillaging, raping women etc. The Founding Fathers must surely have been aware of such known problems of militia groups, so they didn't want to turn the U.S into this chaotic anarchy state where different armed militia groups are fighting eachother daily for control and practically doing as they please because of the fact that they're an armed militia. So they use the term "well regulated militia" instead, implying that militia groups require oversight, discipline and control in order to be allowed to operate.

  25.  @drfroglegs  Yes, but capacitors dump their charge nearly instantly. They have to be filled up by something. If your capacitors drain the battery in oniy 1-2 shots it's not much of a portable weapon.

  29. Are these revolvers recoil operated kind of like the Mateba revolver? If so, then my previous question about follow up shots gets kind of redundant.

  32. Why not plant the sword in the ground with the edge facing the gun and see if you can get the sword to cut the rounds coming towards it?

  33. Louder with Chowder: Can you quote a source on that? It's not that I want to dismiss your statement out of hand, because at least that's a reason why it would make some sort of sense so I'd just like to look into something backing it up. On the other hand, why then are regular shotguns even less regulated than handguns? Wouldn't the ballistics problem and impossibility of matching fired ammunition to a weapon apply to them as well?

  34. Lord Flufflebuns: Your argument is flawed. First of all, regarding accuracy. Like you said yourself: short barreled shotguns have a wider spread. They require short range to be effective. But at shorter ranges it is also a lot simpler to hit your target with a handgun. Second: we haven't yet specified what kind of handguns or calibers we're talking about. Yes, I'd rather take my chances against a .22 LR slug at close range, than a 12 gauge buckshot shell fired from a short barreled shotgun (even if the individual buckshot don't all hit me due to the spread). But if we're talking about a .44 JHP magnum round from a revolver or a .50 Action Express from something like a Desert Eagle, then suddenly a buckshot shell doesn't sound "as bad". Especially not considering that the kinetic energy from each individual pellet is generally smaller than a single bullet from a pistol or revolver, and also due to the fact that even lower graded body armor on the NIJ-classification scale is likely to stop or reduce the injuries from buckshot but will have no chance at all stopping .44 magnum rounds or .50 AE rounds. Then there's rate of fire to consider. A semi-automatic pistol can be used to fire repetitive shots a lot faster than a pump-action or even many semi-automatic shotguns (since their action is slower than the pistol). Now i'm not trying to argue that one is more dangerous to be on the business end of than the other. My exact point is the fact that in terms of lethality, overall (with respect to different models and ammunition types) pistols are just as bad as short barreled shotguns. So banning one while allowing the other for concealed carry makes no sense.

  35. Matt! Look at the respone video from The Metatron for your last video. I want to see you guys collab! Gun afficionado back to back with sword afficionado! It's gonna be great!

  36. How much weight to the trigger pull is it? I'm thinking that the advantage of smaller muzzle climb is to make it easier for follow up shots. But being a revolver the trigger pull tend to be harder than a semi-automatic if you don't cock it first, so the advantage of the staight back recoil seems to be somewhat negated by a heavier trigger for follow up shots.

  38.  @deadheart556  I never said you can rely on cops. The difference between your examples and actual confiscation of firearms bottles down to the fact that you don't have a constitutional right to not get pulled over and having your car searched. And because they're usually looking for drugs and not guns while doing it. (and once again: you have no constitutional right to possess or use illegal substances) But I'll tell you this: I won't hold it against you if you mow any cops down who try to confiscate your firearms. That's just self defense against tyranny in my book.

  39.  @mattmurphy7030  Makes sense. Also, I seem to recall from that scene in The Matrix that the cable Neo shoots off was much thinner than real elevator cable.

  40. Well... With every touch, the bullet would be slightly cooled due to heat transfer I suppose. :P

  41. How many AIRBAGS does it take to stop a mosin nagant though? Maybe it'll work as reactive armour. XD

  42. Suggestion for next test: can you shoot the floor out from under you so you'll fall from one storey down to the one below it? I think I've seen them do that in the first Underworld and also in Spawn.

  43. It's not that surprising that bamboo would stop bullets at relatively thin thickness when you think about it. All plants have a fibrous structure to them after all. And "Kevlar" does too (Polyaramid fiber). The difference being that the structure of polyaramid is artificially made for purpose whereas something like bamboo has been grown organically.

  44. I'm not surprised. Glass is a very hard material, but brittle so it can't take any flex. But since these are solid glass balls (spheres being one of the most structurally sound geometric shapes), it requires massive amounts of energy to cause the entire structure to flex and shatter. It's almost like shooting at solid rock, truth be told.

  47.  @justsomemincedgarlic  Graphene batteries? Like nano batteries? I read something about that before. A classic voltaic cell is normally composed of a layer of iron, a paper soaked in an electrolytic fluid, and then another layer of copper on top. Stack multiple of these layers on top of eachother and you get a bigger charge. But the interesting thing about it apparently is that the thickness of the individual layers doesn't matter very much. So you could have layers be only a few atoms in thickness and the whole apparatus still works. If every layer is only a few atoms thick, you could stack thousands of layers on top of eachother and it wouldn't take up much space, while still being sble to hold a really big charge.

  50. The entire barrel is carbon fiber? It's not just a thin steel inner barrel with rifling and carbonfiber reinforcement wrapped around it? If so then... Holy shit! :D I wonder how they made the rifling in the inside?
