Hey all,
Note: I decided to post this in the "general" section because I think we can all benefit from this.
I came across this video on YouTube today while looking into some stuff about flares. I have read many threads about shotgun shells in those Orion flare pistols, and they always end with what is most logical. I.e. "Don't do it" "Make a video so you can watch it once you get outta the hospital" etc. etc.
Well, these guys actually went and did it. They took a standard 12ga. #7 1/2 Federal shotshell (for those of you who don't know, these are your standard trap/clay/bird loads) cut it down, removed "some powder" and discharged it out of the flare gun.
This is obviously a violation of federal law, as has been previously discussed.
