Live Shotgun Shell in PLASTIC flare pistol - What happens?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- Many people asked us what would happen if a live shotgun shell was shot from a flare pistol. We would much rather show you what happens than have anyone get injured or worse trying it themselves. I believe that it should impossible to chamber ANY 12 ga shell into these pistols. Perhaps the flare shells should be triangle shaped instead of cylindrical just to make it impossible for someone to chamber a 12ga shell into the plastic flare pistol.
This was done under very controlled conditions and we suggest you do not attempt this yourself.

The flare shotgun
Level 1 use the shotgun
When fired: weapon is removed from user's hands and deleted from the backpack
Less damage than a shotgun
Less range than a flare gun
Worse than the gas passer

I can definitely see this being useful for hunters to keep a few 12 gauge flares on hand in case of an emergency
Hopefully without starting a hug fire which is why they are for marine use.
If I can't kill it I'll burn it
There's a good chance that starting a smoky fire (i.e. use leaves or wet wood) is also going to draw attention... Flares might be good if someone is already looking for you, but just shooting one off in the hope that someone will notice and come to investigate is probably wishful thinking...
You can fire 12 gauge flares from a 12 gauge shotgun.
@@richardlahan7068 -- And you can fire a normal 12-gauge shell from a plastic 12-gauge flare gun -- ONCE... :)
i work in a fishing vessel, and have 2 shotguns in my house. you dont have an idea how many times i asked this to myself and how close i was to do it. thanks, u guys saved my hand
Have you ever shot a flare out of your shotgun?
Well the main of the flair pistol is fine so if you just put a steel barrel on it you got 5 inch barrel shotgun me an my buddy did it and it works for like 8 shots before the grip loses integrity

So in theory you could use a 12 gauge chamber adapter to fire 9mm, 10mm, 44mag, 357/38 etc out of this flare gun because the adapters act as the barrel & breach while containing the pressures inside of it. They're short enough to fit in this flare gun and you can always bore the plastic barrel out so it will fit if need be. Since you don't need paperwork for chamber adapters or for a flare gun, you could have an unregistered single shot firearm and no one would ever know, to them it's just a flare gun.
Interesting.
Actually you can. I've made a couple already. Your best bet is to use a 12ga to .22 adapter. I've tried a 9mm adapter thats rifled and the flare gun broke. Yet it can shoot a smooth bore .38 adapter just fine. I also suggest you sand out the inside of the flare gun so the adapter fits. Have fun with this toy 😁
If you're going to do that, use a surplus flare gun made of metal. Don't be a nimrod and use a damn plastic flare gun.
Also, it legally becomes a firearm and comes under all applicable laws when you put the adapter in.
I would like to see this plastic flare gun with metal insert, maybe in .410.
@@xzqzq 410 is a pretty high pressure shell compared to 20 and 12g pretty sure that would end badly.
I have noticed how thick the chamber end of .410 barrel is compared to rest of barrel. Were I to do this: minimum hand loads, fired remotely. Have had fun experimently with .410, find it odd people consider it a wimpy round. I find it an excellent balance between firepower , weight, and maneuverability. Shoot a home intruder with 4 hard-cast .35 lead balls, gonna ruin his whole day. Also, surprised at the accuracy I could obtain with .45 lc sabots & .38 bullets, outta smoothbore tube.
you could use it as a signal gun with those short shot shells. because that resulting screams of pain will probably be heard even farther away than the light of a sginal could be seen^^
lol
No pun intended, but I'm kind of dying of laughter over here from your comment.

Years ago I bought one of these flare guns and removed the barrel. I had a friend of mine who was into melting and casting metal create an exact copy of the barrel, except out of iron. We fired about 25 rounds through it before the plastic handle of the gun started to melt.
Iron wouldn't do it. Too brittle.
@@oneproudbrowncoat What do you mean iron is too brittle? What do you think cannons are made out of?
@@mysterydude1 Admittedly it would depend upon the iron, but cast iron would certainly be too brittle. Cannon used black powder, which has a pressure curve different from that of smokeless.
@@oneproudbrowncoat yeah well, it worked. 🤷♂️
@@mysterydude1 You're positive it wasn't steel?
Me, looking at the busted up flare gun.
My brain: Put another flare in it and see if it will shoot.
Same lol
It would... The flare has its own barrel and this barrel is longer than broken up section.
Basically, broken wooden sword taped together’s inbred step cousin.
*you could not, and will not.*
I think it will. The flare round has the barrel itself
Did this 35 years ago and the back of the pistol went right passed my right ear. My hand still shakes when I think about it. LoL.

Perhaps the first flares were military and would be designed to fire from a shotgun for signaling
Pretty close to right.
WWII 12 gauge signal flares were longer than a shotgun shell and full normal diameter the whole length of the shell. Higher power and more height from the flare.
Some military 12 gauge flares even had the parachute which would be pointless on the ones made for that plastic flare pistol because the chute would open about the time the flare hit the ground.
Almost all of the original WWII flares are now UNSAFE TO FIRE FROM ANYTHING. Age has caused them to swell and usually you can't chamber them. Might be some Vietnam era still safe, but they are old enough that I would not try it.
Robert Szasz the millitary mostly use illiumination mortar rounds
The military uses something completely different for signaling. I won’t go into what that is, but this isn’t even close.
Jerry G It is dead on they do usually use illium mortars but have electronic infrared signalling devices for downed airmen.
+F Huber back in Nam they also has 40 mm flares. I've got one.
I’m British and this is the most American thing I have seen yet

you could shoot Russian steel hull shotgun shells through that flare gun.

TAOFLEDERMAUS Brass mini-shells? AGUILA MAKE THAT SHIZZ!
Im not sure this hasn't already been noted on here. They do make steel inserts designed to fire smaller caliber rounds from flare guns. Is it then considered a fire arm?
Don't do it. The flare pistol lacks strength in the action to keep the base of the shell from pushing the breech face back. A sub gauge adapter will cause the pistol to break even worse, as in all frags going back to the shooter.
Do not attempt this at home. I'm what you call a professional... lovingly yours, Paul Harrell 🤣
Not sure how much "RESPECT" you will receive .

That to funny
Haha, yes! 🤣
@@EllDavis lol
Ha ha comedy heaven
The original flares used the mini-shells now popular with shotguns in general, and I have a number of those flare shells still unfired. But it was a very low pressure shell, barely more than a primer load.
They work surprisingly well when the lip of the inside of the barrel is filed down just enough for a 12 gauge to (insert any handgun caliber round here) adapter to fit inside. Not that i know from experience or anything... 😉
I have seen where people have done that and fired a hot 12 gauge load out of them, and the results were far more dramatic.
J P they dont hold up very well, 10+ rounds and the backplate and lockup gets questionable, even with a 22 the back pressure is too much, most cases end up splitting or mangled too
Ive personally shot a box of .22lr out of an orion flare gun with a 12g to .22 adapter without it cracking. When i loaded .357 in it, it cracked after around 15-20 rounds.
Posting this video will hopefully act as a deterant from anyone attempting this . Flare guns are not toys or propper shotguns & many parents will be saved some grief by their incouragable sons clicking on this video after getting some "ideas" . TY for responsibly showing the dangers this could entail & I wish you many years of fun & safe shooting.

Bullet velocity is reduced by as much as 35% by each ricochet deflection, and velocity is further reduced by air resistance as cohesive bullet fragments often produce an audible whine tumbling after losing stability

with the top of the barrel blown off would it still fire a flare ????????? don't put away the 3 miles of string just yet.

Other comments were mentioning the back pressure being too much for the gun. It sounds like it'd get rather sketchy after a couple rounds.

Well. So much for me getting a cheap Walmart 12 gauge snubbie.
Funny thing is, the Turkish break action we use wasn't much more expensive than this flare pistol!
What model is it?
H&R singles were just as cheap, but remington is a asylum of ass biting retards, and remingtoned them into oblivion.
Assuming you have access to metal machining equipment. Unless you're way more creative than me? I mean a piece of 3/4" pipe would make a decent enough barrel, but effectively getting it attached to the rest of the gun would be a challenge.
Adding a loop to a piece of pipe to attach it to the frame would be relatively easy. Just need either a welder or a triangular file depending on which method you choose. But make sure it's long enough to be legal, and be aware that there's a definite possibility of the plastic not taking the kickback from the shell. High brass shells might help with that, but I wouldn't count on it...
Me: oh, flare guns are cool. Me watching what happens when you shoot a 12 gauge shell out of one: … 😐 my disappointment is immeasurable.
2:07 as if my everyday self had a flare gun and a shotgun mini-shell just in hand XD

Thank you OG,
Interesting experiment!
Always wondered what the outcome might be, if someone might be foolish enough to fire a shot shell in one of these.
We have always had these aboard ship, as well as the occasional 25mm pistols (sometimes metal ones), and the physics behind guns kept me from entertaining the possibility of allowing it.
The practice flare is exciting enough for someone to get their rocks off on the rarest occasion.

I think he meant what he said. He just didn't mean for it to be taken literally. My interpretation is that he was just trying to be funny and only wanted to emphasize that they were plenty far away when they pulled the string.

You guys should try to modify the gun and change the barrel so that we can see what would happen if the barrel did´nt explode like that. I think that the handle would get destroyed as all the force would be more concentrated, I think that would happen anyway.
Great vid btw
Yup, custom barrel and see.

Yup, probably no appreciable effect of efficacy either since the cartridges are the real barrel of the gun.
