You should send that to Mythbusters. I was watching it a while back and they were trying to get a gun to "bananna peel" by sticking things in the barrel. They got it to seperate and bulge, but the "busted" the idea that a gun will peel back like a banana like it does in cartoons.

That's funny! No, not really. That is a serious mistake.
I was at Horseshoe bend sighting a rifle a few years ago and there were 2 younger gentleman shooting a muzzleloader right next to us. After 3 or 4 shots from them we heard a huge explosion and a blood curdling scream! I looked over to see pieces of action and stock imbedded in the face of one of them. Evidently he(and the other) had not told each other it had been loaded already(talking on a cell phone when they should have been paying att. to the situation at hand). Ambulance was called and that is all i heard. Stupid is as stupid does. Please be careful with firearms.[mad] I don't want the recieving end of a careless mistake...
