I'm only 90 seconds into the video, and you've already made one small error. If you have the hammer over the empty chamber, then pulling the trigger, or cocking the hammer will rotate the cylinder, and then you're going to be firing a bullet. Note that if it is a single-action design, then pulling the trigger shouldn't do anything, unless the weapon is already cocked. (I say "shouldn't" because lord knows how many ways a piece of junk like this gun might malfunction). If you kept the weapon cocked, which would be weird for many reasons, then it would make sense to have the hammer over an empty chamber. Note that some weapons, especially janky ones like this, can discharge even if the trigger isn't pulled. Thus, if you cared about gun safety, you'd probably want to keep two chambers empty. Personally, I wouldn't want this gun (except as a museum piece), even leaving aside the fact that it looks like something that would blow up in your hand.
I love the Guycot Chain Pistol. The thing held *40* rounds in a little pistol in 1855. I mean it was practically as terrible as the rest, but if you ever do a sequel video.. it's worth a look.
@@myblacklab7 dude read the manual of old revolvers such as cap and ball and you will see keep the hammer over an empty chamber as a safety measure. this is because being bumped the hammer will transfer the force and fire the gun. you clearly also don't know the difference the between a single and double action.
As for weird things done with *normal* guns, an honourable mention that could go in a follow-up video is a Soviet mechanism used during WW2 which was just 88 infantry submachine guns stuck together on a rack and set up to shoot out of the bomb bay of a Tupolev bomber. Gotta love it.

I'm especially impressed by him mentioning that the Puckle gun requires separate revolution and firing actions. Even other highly knowledgeable gun channels often assume that it works more like a Gatling gun, automatically firing each round as soon the chamber is rotated into position. This has given me a newfound respect for Qxir's research and credibility. Bravo, sir, literally faultless.

Let's be honest, the Davy Crocket is the best self defense weapon. Picture this; you're a burglar and you broke into a house in the middle of the night. Suddenly a light down the hallway flicks and you hear footsteps. You draw your weapon. Then some guy walks out the bedroom holding a *mothef-ing nuke* and half asleep says "do you feel lucky, punk?" I wouldn't. Not only would I leave the house, I would leave the city. A man ready to nuke you, himself and the entire neighborhood is not a man to be messed with.
And also that is when the word "Broken Arrow" entered military nomenclature which kind of explains the force behind the idea getting cancelled, a broken arrow being a lost or stolen or misplaced nuke

The Puckle Gun actually had a pretty sound design and application. It was ridiculously expensive by the standards of the early 18th century, but Puckle had actually identified scenarios where it would have been useful, like defending ships against pirates in small boats and bridges against attacking armies. Unfortunately he chose to launch it right in the middle of an early stock market bubble, and chose to hype it up with gimmicks like the square ammo for use against non Christians. By the time it came to demonstrate his gun to the army and navy he managed to get it to fire dozens of rounds reliably in the rain, but the stock bubble had burst and it was basically lumped in with a whole bunch of scams in the media reporting of the era and laughed out of town. He managed to sell a few to the Royal Navy for trials, but there's no evidence the ships that got them ever ran into the pirates they were intended to fight, so there were no repeat orders.
11:04 Pretty sure I'd choose the multi-barreled rifle. Sure it would probably dislocate my shoulder and set the house on fire, but it WOULD work, and that's what's REALLY important.
The british should've just made it fire one barrel at a time. You KNOW that son of a bitch takes half an hour to reload anyway, why not let your soldiers be a little more selective than firing all seven bullets at the same thing?
The Davy Crockett was the main inspiration for the Fatman launcher in fallout, except instead of being set up on ground with a tripod, it is a shoulder mounted launcher.
Shoots Qxir videos? In a destructive way? I mean, this video was inaccurately slanted in an anti-Christian way when covering the Puckle gun, so it would be no big loss.
Take a look at that Soviet fighter jet design that failed because the gun on it was so powerful it ripped the plane apart upon first test. That’s a fun one.
The Soviets also hold the record for the first gun fired in space. They emptied the rotary cannon (think Vulcan/Gau-8/Minigun) on a counter-spy satellite, just blindly firing out into open space before de-orbiting (aka: crashing) the sat into the ocean. I sure hope some alien race doesn't show up someday fully prepared to return fire over our "unprovoked and entirely unwarranted attack on their Tau-Ligma 12 colony outpost"
The Davy Crockett also had a big brother, or should I say sister. They made a 280 mm Cannon called "Atomic Annie". This fired a 15 Kiloton Nuclear Warhead about 10,000m (10km). For refernce, the Little boy bomb was 20 Kilotons and Fat man had about the same. It was tested a few times in 1953 and Retired less than 5 years later, for obvious reasons...
I'm pretty sure Qixr got his info wrong on why the Davy Crockett was retired, it was a weapon made while army scientists were still learning about the dangers of how wind conditions can easily blow fallout directly back at the ones firing the weapon who are for all intents and purposes out in the open, I don't think someone looked at the DC and in a bubble figured out the nightmare of Mutually assured destruction from the world's most deadly Nerf gun
This was a masterpiece of sarcasm to weapons you would hardly find anywhere in the web. A well deserved small gift for your efforts in research and presentation with thanks!
6:40 there’s a company that created ammunition made from pork products called “JiHawg ammo” specifically intended for US military personnel to use in the Middle East.
ironically that wouldn't be haram, what would have been haram was what the british got muslim sepoys (indian army soldiers) to do during the 1800s, which is to follow a protocol of having to put the bullet cartrige in their mouths, which had bacon grease on it. They did a similar thing with hindu soldiers and beef grease
see, the religiously unclean bit is putting it in one's mouth, so unlike just firing things made of pork at someone, having them ingest it is more offensive, which makes it all the more evil
@surprisedlobsta8543 Even then, the Quran is very clear that it is a choice you shouldn't make, but if you can't avoid it, it's okay. Like if you're starving, you can have a porkchop and Allah will understand. Even if firing pig blood into someone was against Islam, they wouldn't be making that choice, so it wouldn't be a sin regardless.

2:27 Sergeant Patrick Harper had great success with his nock gun, the key is you have to yell “AHHHH” every time you fire it. You could take out half a French platoon in one volley if you yelled it loud enough.
I don't know how many times Harper was shown firing his nock gun in the Sharpe series but I'm very certain he was never shown loading its multiple barrels.
I'm so dreadfully sorry for your loss. Been there, done that, as they say. Losing them never gets easier, though time takes the edge of the pain away. The best way to start recovering - _when you are ready!_ - is to rescue another one.

I hope you're coping as well as can be expected ❤
It is also quite effective, if i remember correctly the guy that was shot thought it might have been a bee or something and only noted the man with an umbrella behind him. So imagine all the times it had been used and never noticed...
Prison guards and police men using that quad barrel sounds like a one REALLY bad idea lol But in the case of a captain/naval officer this gun would be perfect for sending shots across a nearby enemy ship where all you have is hostile targets often grouped close together.
Their use by prison guards and police officers was to discourage riots. There was no need to aim, you just shot at the crowd. The indiscriminate nature of the handing out of death was believed to be enough to deter potential troublemakers. As for sea captains, you're absolutely right, they were used to "rake the decks" prior to boarding action!
Also naval captains (and pirates for that matter) had other weapons to fight with. So reloading 4 barrels wasn't really a concern, the point was to drop it after shooting and switch to your saber or other firearms.
“Just imagine you’re being beset upon by four evenly-spaced rapscallions” I can’t tell you how many times I’ve encountered this precise scenario, I gotta get my hands on one of those duck-foots
1:10 In this design, the folding trigger is the safety mechanism. Leaving the hammer down on an empty chamber wouldn't prevent the gun going off if the trigger was accidentally pulled, since this is a double-action revolver. Pulling the trigger advances the cylinder to the next chamber, which would be loaded. I think the idea with these revolvers is that you would carry it with the hammer resting between two chambers, with the trigger folded up. You showed a couple of different models in both pinfirre and rimfire. This technique would work with either. In the former case, the firing pin (part of the hammer) would rest between the rims of two adjacent cartridges. In the latter case, the firing pins are part of the cartridge itself. The hammer would rest between the pins of two adjacent cartridges. This isn't really up to the safety standards of modern fireams, but it's still pretty safe. The main weakness is if the pivot of the trigger got loose, enabling the trigger to flop down into the firing position, and perhaps catching on the edge of a pocket. That could be mitigated with proper maintenance though.
@@Joe-sg9ll No. As he said in the video, there is no barrel on these guns, and they were designed to be used only at very close range. The cylinder is somewhat longer than the cartridge, so the chambers themselves act as a very short barrel. It's basically a pepperbox revolver
@@Joe-sg9ll Oh, I see what you mean now - you're asking if it could have been redesigned to act as a barrel. I think it would probably be possible to design a sort of break-action barrel that could fold, but that's honestly probably outside the intended use of the weapon. The pepperbox design was good enough for the up close and personal range it was intended for.
The Infernal Machine might seem silly but volley guns had existed before, and in fact in the 1865 the French adopted the Mitrailleuse; instead of firing all barrels at once it fired them in series, sometimes with a lever, and sometimes with a crank; it was comparable in role to the Gatling Gun and Augur Gun in that it was basically an early machine gun. They were produced in low numbers and by order of Napoleon III they were kept as somewhat of a secret weapon of the French army for a few years before actually being issued en masse- meaning that when they were used in the Franco-Prussian War no one really knew how to use them effectively.
Nockguns were also notorious for their barrels getting hot extremely quickly. So much energy is produced in each of the chambers that the gun instantly became so hot it could light paper on fire instantly in some models. It’s reported many sailors had to drop the gun because the barrels became so hot it radiated intense heat.
I didn't think the Davy Crockett was a real weapon, I thought it was made up as part of a mod pack for a sandbox game I enjoy playing. Thanks for this eye-opening information, Qxir!
The "person straight in front of you" problem isn't really an issue with the ducks foot. Just turn it on its side and you give them 4 evenly spaced holes.
@@artiomvv569 big enough to let hundreds of thousands if not millions of swampey creatures roam free day 'n night and do evil and vile shenanigans. there's also quite a lot of _Masonry_ structures that protect them. 🤔
Wait until you find out that Israel actually made a functional Krummlauf called "Cornershot". Instead of attaching a bent barrel to the front, they put a bendy sighting mechanism to the rear. That way, you can fire a pistol around the corner.
Isn’t this the one they “camouflage” by having a plush cat with the barrel poking through, so rather than seeing the business end of a gun you just see a puffy cat? Which is the last thing you’d see. (And I just read that with Qxir’s voice)
Yeah, it's still a REALLY niche weapon and rarely worth the weight it would cost to carry. The most common and efficient solution is a technique referred to as "Slicing the Pie". Basically, step out away from the corner, aim weapon, and move in a large arc around the corner, allowing you to both reveal yourself, & expose what's behind it, incrementally.
Not really, the ATF have allowed several "volley fire" guns to not require the $200 tax stamp/class 3 treatment, recently the Thunderstruck revolver, that shoots two rounds simultaneously with a single trigger pull. Also, because the Puckle Gun is pre 1899... it isn't considered to be a firearm. (This "loophole allows convicted felons to own cap & ball revolvers etc.)
@@BatCaveOz a pucklegun would still be considered a machine gun or destructive device since it has 30mm projectiles, it would fall under the same categorie as grenade launchers
As an American who enjoys Qxir's videos and watched this video while while I sat atop my chair made entirely of surplus military rifles which is located near my wall that holds a partial display of my favorite entries in my personal firearm collection, I am very willing to forgive him for having little knowledge about firearms, their history, their use, and their nomenclature. I mean it would be unfair of me to ask any Irishman to know anything about a firearm unless he or she happened to be going through some troubles.... I cannot forgive him mentioning the Davy Crocket and not giving a shoutout to its most famous use which was after the intro mission of Metal Gear Solid 3, have some respect for your channel Qxir and show your application for the arts and culture that you usually put into your videos!
I’d always heard the duckfoots origin as being for captains of the tall ships as a mutiny deterrent. Hard to find people willing to rebel against the captain when the captain can volley half the deck in a moment.
with the exception for the Davy Crockett, i'm fairly certain Ian on Forgotten Weapons has talked about all these guns while having them in front of him in person XD
9:06 davy crockett could also be mounted on a jeep to make it more mobile so the solders could turn around and drive off before the radiation could be blown back to them or be carried in on foot by three to five solders. Also I believe one of the reasons it was ultimately withdrawn service because some random sergeant or staff sergeant could be in control of it and just get pissy and pop off nuke
Credit where credit's do, the Puckle gun was essentially the world's first "machine gun"/multi-round gun to see real coverage (It was also used by a few ships during the American Revolution). So it deserves some respect for it's forward-thinking design, let alone it's impression on firearm design for the period.
I've owned both a real Nock gun, and a prop used for the Sharpe TV series, as wielded by Daragh O'Malley, who played sgt Pat Harper (and you played a clip too!) Pat Harper is a huge man in the novels so it makes sense for him to wield one; and Daragh isn't small either, but nonetheless the prop version is half the size and a third of the weight. They were tough men back then.
Fun fact: the Davy Crockett was also meant to be mounted and fired from the back of a Jeep, but the jeep couldn't move fast enough to escape the blast radius, so the Atomic Annie was the more developed weapon. Also, the Bat Bomb was far more deadly.
As a fellow Content Creators, those mean/nonsensical comments at 0:08 hit very close to home. Some people really need to learn how to stfu and *leave* before saying something so stupid.
The German Krumnlauf now actually has a modern equivalent to it, called corner rifle. It works by having a small end with the actual gun & a camera on it you can point around corners, scout on the weapons' camera screen while behind the corner, and then shoot.
I have a storage crate that was used to transport the pitt of W33 Nuclar artillery shell. (The W33 was a slightly larger version of the Davy Crocket.) The crate is still slightly radioactive even though its been empty since the 1950s
If you've ever watched demolition ranch, you'd know he's gotten bullets to travel through loop dealoops over 60 feet. He really set up plastic tubing to do it too. Some broke out, but a lot actually went through the whole thing and hit the target.
Mythbusters has done it too. They used a much gentler curve, but they successfully tested it up to 270 degrees. IIRC, there have also been other experimental weapons trying to fill the same niche, with a pistol mounted on a pivot on the end of a rifle-like handle.
Garand Thumb also has a somewhat recent video on the German curved barrel and for them it was actually surprisingly effective, relatively speaking. At the very least it didn't break apart the bullets like how it's regularly claimed to do. At least not in their case.
"The Davy Crocket! A recoiless gun" B-but guns have r- "That fired a tactical nuclear warhead." *+10000000000000T respect for the endless budget America has* *fun fact: the Davy Crocket is the smallest Nuke ever tested compared to other nuclear weapons, and during the end of WW2, America is the only Nuclear power with nuclear bombs and President Truman, who is NOT afraid to use them*
5:35 Five shots per minute with a flintlock is a real stretch. As the Sharpe clip said, three shots was good. I could generally do four in the dry, and three in rain, and that was after a year or so of practice most weekends.
I wasn't expecting this to be particularly good or accurate, and I was very pleasantly wrong on both counts. Well done! I think the puckle guns' main issue was it's cost, but all the same, the detail behind all the guns were fairly thorough and accurate (puckle included).
10:44 okay, even us Aussie infantry lads know that the crayon eating meme is specific to US Marines, please don’t insult all infantry with this. That said, I was a Mortarman as well, so smarter than the average grunt!

@@FLPhotoCatcherperhaps you should consider getting a sense of humour, or at least getting out more.
Take a look at that Soviet fighter jet design that failed because the gun on it was so powerful it ripped the plane apart upon first test. That’s a fun one.
The Soviets also hold the record for the first gun fired in space. They emptied the rotary cannon (think Vulcan/Gau-8/Minigun) on a counter-spy satellite, just blindly firing out into open space before de-orbiting (aka: crashing) the sat into the ocean. I sure hope some alien race doesn't show up someday fully prepared to return fire over our "unprovoked and entirely unwarranted attack on their Tau-Ligma 12 colony outpost"

*"Hi! Welcome to another edition of Forgotten Weapons, I'm Qxir McCollum, and I'm here today with the Puckle Gun."*
Ian is a commie
The Davy Crockett also had a big brother, or should I say sister. They made a 280 mm Cannon called "Atomic Annie". This fired a 15 Kiloton Nuclear Warhead about 10,000m (10km). For refernce, the Little boy bomb was 20 Kilotons and Fat man had about the same. It was tested a few times in 1953 and Retired less than 5 years later, for obvious reasons...
Fun fact
They lost atomic annie for years
They confused it with the backup cannon
Atomic annie was found in europe
fucking hell, imagine if they actually used that in a real-life scenario? damage 3/4 of Hiroshima / Nagasaki in a cannon
I'm pretty sure Qixr got his info wrong on why the Davy Crockett was retired, it was a weapon made while army scientists were still learning about the dangers of how wind conditions can easily blow fallout directly back at the ones firing the weapon who are for all intents and purposes out in the open, I don't think someone looked at the DC and in a bubble figured out the nightmare of Mutually assured destruction from the world's most deadly Nerf gun

6:40 there’s a company that created ammunition made from pork products called “JiHawg ammo” specifically intended for US military personnel to use in the Middle East.
ironically that wouldn't be haram, what would have been haram was what the british got muslim sepoys (indian army soldiers) to do during the 1800s, which is to follow a protocol of having to put the bullet cartrige in their mouths, which had bacon grease on it. They did a similar thing with hindu soldiers and beef grease
why do people seem to think that pork is some sort of kryptonite but for Muslims?
see, the religiously unclean bit is putting it in one's mouth, so unlike just firing things made of pork at someone, having them ingest it is more offensive, which makes it all the more evil
@surprisedlobsta8543 Even then, the Quran is very clear that it is a choice you shouldn't make, but if you can't avoid it, it's okay.
Like if you're starving, you can have a porkchop and Allah will understand. Even if firing pig blood into someone was against Islam, they wouldn't be making that choice, so it wouldn't be a sin regardless.

Prison guards and police men using that quad barrel sounds like a one REALLY bad idea lol
But in the case of a captain/naval officer this gun would be perfect for sending shots across a nearby enemy ship where all you have is hostile targets often grouped close together.
yar har, four gun better than one
Their use by prison guards and police officers was to discourage riots. There was no need to aim, you just shot at the crowd. The indiscriminate nature of the handing out of death was believed to be enough to deter potential troublemakers.
As for sea captains, you're absolutely right, they were used to "rake the decks" prior to boarding action!
Yeah that’s actually what they were developed for
Also naval captains (and pirates for that matter) had other weapons to fight with. So reloading 4 barrels wasn't really a concern, the point was to drop it after shooting and switch to your saber or other firearms.
I assumed it was more about fighting off mutineers.
“Just imagine you’re being beset upon by four evenly-spaced rapscallions” I can’t tell you how many times I’ve encountered this precise scenario, I gotta get my hands on one of those duck-foots
1:10 In this design, the folding trigger is the safety mechanism.
Leaving the hammer down on an empty chamber wouldn't prevent the gun going off if the trigger was accidentally pulled, since this is a double-action revolver.
Pulling the trigger advances the cylinder to the next chamber, which would be loaded.
I think the idea with these revolvers is that you would carry it with the hammer resting between two chambers, with the trigger folded up.
You showed a couple of different models in both pinfirre and rimfire. This technique would work with either. In the former case, the firing pin (part of the hammer) would rest between the rims of two adjacent cartridges.
In the latter case, the firing pins are part of the cartridge itself. The hammer would rest between the pins of two adjacent cartridges.
This isn't really up to the safety standards of modern fireams, but it's still pretty safe.
The main weakness is if the pivot of the trigger got loose, enabling the trigger to flop down into the firing position, and perhaps catching on the edge of a pocket.
That could be mitigated with proper maintenance though.
@@Joe-sg9ll No, it wasn't. The gun fired from a hole above the knife
@@Joe-sg9ll No. As he said in the video, there is no barrel on these guns, and they were designed to be used only at very close range.
The cylinder is somewhat longer than the cartridge, so the chambers themselves act as a very short barrel. It's basically a pepperbox revolver
Catching on the edge of a pocket? Nobody tell Vallandigham.
@@Joe-sg9ll Oh, I see what you mean now - you're asking if it could have been redesigned to act as a barrel.
I think it would probably be possible to design a sort of break-action barrel that could fold, but that's honestly probably outside the intended use of the weapon. The pepperbox design was good enough for the up close and personal range it was intended for.
@@Joe-sg9ll How would it work though? It would have to be sharpened to act as a blade, and I can't imagine that would make for a very accurate barrel.
The Infernal Machine might seem silly but volley guns had existed before, and in fact in the 1865 the French adopted the Mitrailleuse; instead of firing all barrels at once it fired them in series, sometimes with a lever, and sometimes with a crank; it was comparable in role to the Gatling Gun and Augur Gun in that it was basically an early machine gun. They were produced in low numbers and by order of Napoleon III they were kept as somewhat of a secret weapon of the French army for a few years before actually being issued en masse- meaning that when they were used in the Franco-Prussian War no one really knew how to use them effectively.
modern mlrs systems are essentially volley guns
@@wildbill6976 Maybe the older ones, but modern ones are more like volley guns with individually amiable barrels/projectiles.

Nockguns were also notorious for their barrels getting hot extremely quickly. So much energy is produced in each of the chambers that the gun instantly became so hot it could light paper on fire instantly in some models. It’s reported many sailors had to drop the gun because the barrels became so hot it radiated intense heat.

Wait until you find out that Israel actually made a functional Krummlauf called "Cornershot". Instead of attaching a bent barrel to the front, they put a bendy sighting mechanism to the rear. That way, you can fire a pistol around the corner.
Yeah that was an odd invention.....well both of them.
I'm pretty sure I've seen it on an episode of Future Weapons back in the day.
Isn’t this the one they “camouflage” by having a plush cat with the barrel poking through, so rather than seeing the business end of a gun you just see a puffy cat? Which is the last thing you’d see. (And I just read that with Qxir’s voice)
Yeah, it's still a REALLY niche weapon and rarely worth the weight it would cost to carry. The most common and efficient solution is a technique referred to as "Slicing the Pie". Basically, step out away from the corner, aim weapon, and move in a large arc around the corner, allowing you to both reveal yourself, & expose what's behind it, incrementally.
2:57 The Nock Volley gun Could technically be considered a “machine gun” under US law because it fires more than one bullet per trigger pull.
It is a machinegun. Machineguns have existed since before the second ammendment.
Not really, the ATF have allowed several "volley fire" guns to not require the $200 tax stamp/class 3 treatment, recently the Thunderstruck revolver, that shoots two rounds simultaneously with a single trigger pull.
Also, because the Puckle Gun is pre 1899... it isn't considered to be a firearm. (This "loophole allows convicted felons to own cap & ball revolvers etc.)
@@BatCaveOz a pucklegun would still be considered a machine gun or destructive device since it has 30mm projectiles, it would fall under the same categorie as grenade launchers
Legally speaking, a gatling gun isn't a machine gun if its hand cranked. I don't think US law should determine what is and isnt a machine gun.

9:06 davy crockett could also be mounted on a jeep to make it more mobile so the solders could turn around and drive off before the radiation could be blown back to them or be carried in on foot by three to five solders. Also I believe one of the reasons it was ultimately withdrawn service because some random sergeant or staff sergeant could be in control of it and just get pissy and pop off nuke
Exactly. It would go from using tactical nukes to strategic nukes pretty quickly.
My friend's family business includes a firearm museum. As a result i've seen a duck's foot blunderbuss, in case 4 normal barrels wren't enough spread

Credit where credit's do, the Puckle gun was essentially the world's first "machine gun"/multi-round gun to see real coverage (It was also used by a few ships during the American Revolution). So it deserves some respect for it's forward-thinking design, let alone it's impression on firearm design for the period.

Pat Harper is a huge man in the novels so it makes sense for him to wield one; and Daragh isn't small either, but nonetheless the prop version is half the size and a third of the weight. They were tough men back then.

The German Krumnlauf now actually has a modern equivalent to it, called corner rifle. It works by having a small end with the actual gun & a camera on it you can point around corners, scout on the weapons' camera screen while behind the corner, and then shoot.

I have a storage crate that was used to transport the pitt of
W33 Nuclar artillery shell. (The W33 was a slightly larger version of the Davy Crocket.)
The crate is still slightly radioactive even though its been empty since the 1950s
If you've ever watched demolition ranch, you'd know he's gotten bullets to travel through loop dealoops over 60 feet. He really set up plastic tubing to do it too. Some broke out, but a lot actually went through the whole thing and hit the target.
Mythbusters has done it too. They used a much gentler curve, but they successfully tested it up to 270 degrees.
IIRC, there have also been other experimental weapons trying to fill the same niche, with a pistol mounted on a pivot on the end of a rifle-like handle.
In the modern era, its cheaper to call in a drone strike
Garand Thumb also has a somewhat recent video on the German curved barrel and for them it was actually surprisingly effective, relatively speaking. At the very least it didn't break apart the bullets like how it's regularly claimed to do. At least not in their case.
