The blast at the cylinder gap must have been ferocious!

I think you're supposed to switch to a larger powder charge after the third one. Helps get all the debris.

No words...

At least they knew why they were missing the paper finally.

Saw this on my feed the other day and laughed.

WOW...

Almost got the first one out. Definitely keep trying.

Somewhere in the back of my safe I have a S&W Model 10 that was handed down to me from my grandad. It has a bulged barrel. According to my dad, gramps only fired twice before noticing a not so normal report. I have often thought about having it re-barreled, but figured the cost might be prohibitive. Also, not shure if the frame may of been stressed.

In 38, should be ok. Whoever does your rebarrel can check it out. A friend bought a military and police in same condition for a song and has since rebarreled. Shoots it for kicks.

I imagine Wile E. Coyote was the one who did that.

If this was an HK all the rounds would have left the barrel.

He is lucky he was not shooting the average thin barrel Semi auto

I count 8 bullets, He had to reload, that or he had multiple projectiles loaded in each cartridge. (Anythings possible I guess...)

Or it was an n frame 8 shot.

I call BS that this was something that accidentally happened - you'd have to be a special kind of idiot to run a full cylinder, then reload it and fire two more times. I can see two, maybe three, but at that point the shooter would have to know that something wasn't right.

It looks to me like a test set up to see what kind of stress the gun would handle, although the thought of ruining a perfectly good Model 27 makes me want to cringe.

Not something I'd EVER try, but something I am kind of curious about. If you got a squib, could you use a blank cartridge to clear the stuck squib? I'd think a revolver probably wouldn't because too much gas leakage. I'd think most bolt action or semi-autos would so long as the bullet wasn't lodged past any gas ports.

It was a school teacher whom they pinned to the ground kicking and screaming and then FORCED a gun into his / her hand!

(see the thread on “Armed Teachers;” sorry, I just couldn’t help myself!
