Video 15 of asking for 220 Swift the fastest available calibre in the world
I'm waiting for you to fire a mosin!
Keep it up man! 👍
🤗🙏Our family & sons really enjoy this channel! Keep up the great work @KentuckyBallistics
Welcome to kenturkey ballistics!
I feel like Scott is singlehandedly keeping the folding table business alive
His mother owns the table company . His father owns a used car lot . Whooda thunk , huh ?
@@billrea66 does she own Sportsmans Guide. ??
@@billrea66 And his cousin Bob has a gun store.
Helloo
Lol drill halls, churches. Large outdoor events litterally any event in kentucky uses these. Trade days court days whatever you want to call them. Must just be a kentucky thing to use these I guess.
I love how he went the extra mile and filmed this underwater as you can see by the very real sea creatures
His breath capacity is legendary!!
Don't forget to mention the breath-taking kelp trees!
🤣😂🤣😂
I was waiting for him to go hunting for talking Square yellow sponges. 🧽
@@ruger8412 That would have been hilarious if he did that.
Finally! Someone has finally answered the pressing question of what one should actually do when confronted by the Loch Ness Monster. This is a huge relief!
He keeps asking for tree fiddy. 😂
That neck remark! 🤣 You're so awesome for not being sensitive about that experience! You're an absolute example of the kind of people we should all strive to be! You're a hero in my eyes and I'm so grateful I found your channel! Thank you so much for some of the best videos I've ever seen! May you have the most success possible in your life! 😁
I’m not sure why, but seeing a harpoon in slow motion is more satisfying to me than a actual bullet… Great Video I enjoyed it a lot
I said the same thing
It takes a very expensive camera to show a bullet and it’s neat.
Send it through a ballistic zombie torso 🙏 😂😂😂😂
Vs a zombie torso
My thoughts as well!!
Can’t believe a channel about guns is almost as holesome as my grandparents
I get to watch these videos with my daughter. Her line tonight: “I love Kentucky Ballistics because his videos always have a funny start.” Thanks for helping with the father daughter time :)
I forgot how happy this guy makes me. His charisma and energy are incomparable. We must be thankful of having him around.
Quite literally
The harpoons will fly straighter with the rope attached to it as it will act like a stabilising tail. If you tie a short length of rope to it, it will fly a lot better
Probably too dangerous, if the rope bites the harpoon has a chance of coming straight back at you
I was gonna post this exact comment. Kudos 🎉
@@ShaggzVB you do realise that the system is designed to have a rope attached to the harpoon in the first place
How is a rope going to change the direction of a harpoon?
It doesn't have an engine. If anything changes its course, the harpoon loses the energy it had.
@MrYfrank14 the rope will act as a stabiliser and keep the harpoon going straight as it will counteract the nose heavy nature of it. It won't make it fly further, but it will stop it twisting in flight so the harpoon should impact on the barbed end rather than sideways
I'm pretty sure the rope is supposed to help stabilize the harpoon a little. The spooling out of the rope makes a bit of a drag on the tail of the harpoon, meaning it'll want to fly straighter than without the rope. That's at least what I believe is the secondary function of the rope besides reeling in your catch and not losing your harpoons to Davy Jones's Locker.
Firing the harpoon gun at long distances the line helps keep the harpoon stable from tension being placed on the line. I know this because I lived up in Maine in my younger years and during the summer worked on fishing boats when school was out for the summer ,and used a harpoon gun sometimes similar to the one you have but it used 308 blanks.
This seemed fairly powerful with .38 special blanks i wonder how much power the .308 has
Great point: using the provided line probably would improve the flight path.
Hey Scott the Harpoon needs to have the string attached to it for it to work correctly. Its because like the fletching on a arrow the string adds drag so the harpoon doesn't nose dive & hit it semi broadside. You'll have better results from farther away. Just FYI. Love the content best part of me day!
Exactly
I was looking for this comment. I was going to say the same thing.
Came here to say this but you said it better than I would have.
The water and string help keep the bolt from spinn8ng out of control I've shot spear fishing from pretty good distances and they travel pretty straight in water very rarely do they spin only a couple of times the prongs on the front opened and made it shoot to the side a bit . Great show really good seeing you reduce the aquatic population
Why didn't you use the string I thought that's the way u do it on here that's what u said
That harpoon, considering it's weight and size, flew with a lot more authority than I thought it would coming from that blank.
Imagine it, but with .500 magnum blanks….
YEET
@@crazysilly2914 lets go even further, use a 20mm blank.
@@crazyadam9281 I wouldn’t go _that_ far. A 50. BMG is just fine to suffice...
@@crazysilly2914 At this point just shoot the real deal. 😂
It’s because of the design, the way the harpoon slides over the barrel allows pressure to build up much longer than a standard barrel
I love how you can always tell this man is having the most fun and spending his time exactly how he dreamed. And I'm here for it!
This video is definitely in my top 5 favorites of Scotts and KENTUCKY BALLISTICS!!! Again, great content. When Scotts put the octopus on and started to flailing around and the sound effects, I was cracking up!!
Well bots are now here
I was honestly surprised how powerful that thing is. I would have thought it'd need a larger blank to send off a one pound projectile, especially under water. Way neat little piece of history you got there!
Is this meant to be used underwater? I believe with all that line and such it's meant to be used from a small fishing boat or a whalers boat because I don't see any features that would keep that powder from getting snuffed out instantly when it fires underwater
@@Ghost-zd9cr Good point, I know there are some that are used underwater... but you are right, this likely isnt one of em.
@@Ghost-zd9cr Good spot. I hadn’t thought of that, but it makes sense, and the wood wouldn’t make as much sense under water, either.
@@coryroberts7519 this is a martini Henry action harpoon gun. It's probably close to 100 years old.
You might be thinking of a spear gun, divers use those underwater for smaller fish
Scott must be a great dad if he can have innocent fun like this. My compliments to you, sir.
He’s like the uncle we all would want
I love this channel hands down the best out there. His humor kills me.
I feel like Scott's the most wholesome out of the Guntubers. Kids could watch this channel.
Watching some of Scott’s older videos, I’m so happy he has found himself and putting so much energy into these videos, awesome!
Ikr, vs the old Casull video where he says literally nothing🤣
I think a near death experience by overcharged 50 bmg round back firing and blowing up your rifle with shrapnel flying into your neck makes appreciate putting a lot more energy into what you do in life, and Scott is the example of it. Thank God we did not lose this man just yet.
Wow, this really goes to demonstrate how much power a blank has! They are definitely something to respect.
Even a 22lr blank can be deadly if used wrong.
someone make sure to let Alec Baldwin know.
@@Brane21 beat me to it!
@Iowa_lot_to_travel they show up on Brandon Herrera's Darwin Award videos for a reason. I never imagined it would throw something that weighed a pound 100 yards though.
@@dogishappy0 Does 300 ft lbs mean it has enough power to move 1 pound 300 feet?
Scott, you’ve always got something wild to share. Thanks for all the laughs.
Excellent Scott 🤠 A Harpoon Pun. I keep mine in my living room. My dad was a Aviation Specialist 101st Sargent, & a Experimental Diving Instructor for the Army & Navy. When I was a kid, I shot the big harpoon gun in the house and I couldn't get the harpoon out of the wall and my dad beat me silly 😅 100% worth it. When he retired, he moved back to Panama, Central America, and left me all his deep sea diving gear 🏴☠️
That was considerably more effective than I thought it would be after I heard ".38 special blank" alongside "1lb projectile"!!
Imagine a 45 70 in that thing
@@bananaowner_real harpoon would have gone through the railway ties in the berm and kept going! 😂
The Navy and Coast Guard used to use shoulder fired line throwing guns made from Springfield 30-03s. Bore out the rifling, cut back the forward end of the stock, install a canister to hold the shot line, turn down the forward 18 inches or so of the barrel to a uniform outside diameter, remove front sight, and add a butt pad with some cushioning. I think the heaviest projectile for it was 18 ounces. I recall one situation where the gunners mate fired that 18 ounce projectile three time before one reached the beach.
It's keyholing at distance because you're not using the string. Where normal arrows have feathers or vanes to stabilize the arrow, harpoons like this, or the ones I use for bowfishing, are stabilized by the backwards tension of the line as they feed outwards towards the target. It'd probably send a harpoon at least 25 yards easily if it's stabilized.
The turkey shot was awesome for showing the expanding broadhead. Good show.
I've been watching Scott for a few years now I think it would be fantastic to spend the day on his range
Scott: *shoots ammo literally designed to cut through water*
Also Scott: *amazed at how well the ammo cuts through water* 😂
6:06 I was pretty sure that I would go through life without seeing a clear ballistics turkey, but once again you surprised me 😂
As always , awesome content. Never feel I’ve wasted time watching Scott “demonstrate” cool stuff. Only time I cry is when you waste my Nacho cheese 🧀. Thanks for a great video.
Scott shooting anything at all: *Boom “OOOHH!!!”
Thank you Scott for going through so much trouble and expense to entertain us. Captain Quint would be proud.
My 6 year old grandson who lives with me lost his dad a year ago in a car wreck. The only time he smiles now is when he watch your videos. If you ever come to colorado springs,colorado could you let me know so that he could meet you. Words could never describe what you have done for him. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting a smile on a little boys face
So happy you done the distance shot. It’s all I was thinking about
This guy makes my day everyday
The fact that a .38 special blank propels that thing so well is SOOO impressive!
That is what got me to say WOW!
I wonder if the chamber would fit a .357 magnum blank. Or if not how much powder you could put in a .38 special case before blowing the gun up. It seems like it would be more forgiving of overpressure than a regular gun with bullet in the case. I mean you're only dealing with gas and no bullet stuck in the case to push out through a barrel and that harpoon is getting blasted off before anything breaks.
Fun fact, in southern Italy we still use harpoons to hunt tuna and swordfish: with special boats equipped with an extremely long plank protruding from the front, from which the fisherman can see and strike the fish
Interesting, Matt. Thanks.
Sounds similar to how we Americans go bowfishing.
That's really cool 😋
@@DH-xw6jp bowfishing? Never heard about that, how does it work?
@@mattthekiller9129 similar to harpoon fishing, except instead of using a rifle you use an archery bow to shoot the fishing arrows (with harpoon style tips) at your target, And there is usually a fishing reel attached to the bow.
We have even developed specialized boats for night fishing using archery equipment.
We don't hunt things as big as tuna this way though.
Although the bigger species of catfish that are bowfished can reach over 600 pounds (272 kilo), Gar over 300 pounds (136 kilo), and Carp over 110 pounds (50 kilo).
Great video Scott! A harpoon gun.....I Love it! And you're range with the sharks and octopus....hysterical! Thanks for the great content as always!
Excellent video, as always Scott. Thank you!
Great job, those Martini rifles are some of the most versified rifles made. Seeing you're on the salt water side, look up "Signal Cannons", they were a brass cannon that would shoot a line out to aid boater/sailors in need where using a boat would take too long. (short version) I had made some 209 primer holders for a cannon at the Sussex County Life Saving Station in Delaware, but never got to see it work.
British shark hunting rifle.
I think it's called a Lyle Gun. I had one for several years. The bore size fit a tennis ball, made for the US Coast Guard and was turned on a lath. At the mussel the thickness about 1.25" and at the other end about 2.25'. It didn't have a breach, one loaded black powder from the mussel. Being about 2.5 feet long it was made of two pieces, the steal barrel and the cast iron base. Total weight ~ 300lbs. The angle could be set at one of three angles and could be separated for transport. The pivoting point wasn't in the middle but at the rear of the barrel. Setting the tension of the bearings would allow just the right resistance to adjust the angle. I wish I sill had it. It had a placard of brass with all the U.S. Coast Guard serial number and other info on it. The whole thing was painted Coast Guard gray. First made to throw a line between ships at sea but was replaced with a shotgun looking line thrower & choppers. Most of them ended up as rescue line throwers shot from shore to a ship run aground. One was used at the mouth of the Columbia River, the boarder of Oregon and Washington States. Ships often ran aground on the bar. I found mine at an antique shop and sold it 5 years later to another antique shop. I paid $300 for it, cleaned it up like new then shot it till my divorce. Sold it for $300. It worked real well as a signal gun and that is what it was used for when the shop sold it. I was probably the last one to put a solid lead cannon ball in it. That's a scary story for another day. Great memories... :)
@@clearlakerain Mussel???
I have a martini rifle... it is arguably my most favorite
Would love to see old vs new harpoon gun! Another great video, Scott!
The A 8S, an archery rifle, has a harpoon variant that I would love to see
YEAHHHH, LETS DO THAT!!!
Awesome :) I watched Ian from Forgotten Weapons do a video on one of these years ago, but I had forgotten that they use a 38 Special blank. The performance is impressive considering how small the blanks are!
Being a lifelong gun enthusiast, shooter, handloader, wildcatter, and collector, I always enjoy some of the crazy guns y'all find. Y'all need to get one of those Pfeifer Zeliska 600 Nitro Express revolvers and try that hand cannon out. And since most of my family lives in western Kentucky, I was just wondering what part y'all are from. We used to go to the Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot quite often. It's too bad that they're not having it anymore.
Imagine it, but with .500 magnum blanks….
YEET
Scott is a dog-man from the Land Between The Lakes region...
That was pretty cool ,I am fascinated by the actual "harpoon gun" it looks like its built from a short lever Martini Henry action . i wonder if Greener ,used surplus actions ,or built totally new actions for their harpoon guns ?
It's probably an original Martini Henry I believe it was Greener who also made a single shot shotgun and line thrower out of the Martini Henry
I wondered the same thing!
@@noahfyan9617 thanks..
I found kentucky, garand, and demoranch yesterday and have been awake the entire time since ive found them, they are awsome and really entertaining
That was a lot more powerful than I expected. Especially being a 38 special blank. Imagine a .308 one.
Well done. I like seeing unique or rare things like this. That harpoon gun isn't something any old person could go out and buy at their local gun shop.
You should check out Bob's Big Boomsticks. I think they might have some.
I'm hoping he'll check out the Coil Gun... It fires using electromagnetic coils.
@@Joreel Scott and GarandThumb visited Matt at Demo Ranch some time ago and played around with a coil gun. The shenanigans with those three went exactly how you'd expect 🤣
the rope keeps the pointed end going the right direction. a classic and congrats
I absolutely love your shenanigans! You're so much fun to watch! 🤣👍😎
Just the way Scott plays with the animals is entertaining
1:46 oh you gotta be quicker than that Scott because jaws just attacked you always remember to stay on guard 😂😂😂
It’s so satisfying with the first shot on the slow Mo cam
I'd love to see more with this harpoon gun. Super cool
Thanks for the gardening tip Scott, I had no idea sharks needed to be watered in the winter
Id love to see some harpoon zombie torso defense :)
Since it basically a tube on a tube you could probably whip up some fun projectiles for it too as long as they are about the same weight, boxing glove, meat tenderizer tip, etc.
So glad I stuck around until the end! That octopus got shredded 😂
"We need a bigger folding table..."
Probably someone already said it🤣 but i'm happy to enjoy again Scott work, there is so much to recap🤓
This harpoon gun is so cool! maybe you could commission someone to make you a handful of harpoons for it so you dont need to worry about damaging the originals. Great video as always!
And the best of all, Harpoon guns are imune from ATF nasty hands.
PVC harpoons
It looks like something I would use on something bigger than jaws something like the crocodiles from lake placid seems fitting
TY Scott I enjoyed this video! You are thinking outside the box!! This was interesting!
My favorite channel now! Glad you healed up well!
the fact that this could've been any gun but it happens to be a martini henry makes it 100x cooler
That was fun. I once used one that used 45-70 blanks of different power levels. It was a line throwing gun from WWII.
I laughed so much! 😁 Thanks. Needed this. 😁👍 Great video
1:46 😂😂😂😂 scott: *explaining video*. 🐬🦈” eeeeehhhhhhh” im dying of laughter
I'd say these are a solid 10/10 for zombies or aliens.
Or could you possibly test that scene from fast and furious where they shot a harpoon thru a windshield and would it still have enough to securely lodge itself into the seat back?
Imagine this but with .500 magnum blanks….
YEET
@@crazysilly2914 pretty sure we'd have another Serbu incident on our hands
@@julian75411 it would have to be a bigger gun, of course...
@@crazysilly2914 "if it seats...it yeets"
This is one of those rare antiques I'd actually buy. Legitimately interesting video. Would love to see a Part 2 with a ham submerged in a kiddy pool.
Imagine it but with .500 magnum blanks….
YEET
I'm trying to figure out who will turn the barrel of a .22 down so I can launch arrows from a .22 rifle using nail set blanks.
@@10peteo wouldn’t be very powerful, and would have less range than a standard bow and arrow...
This is one of the coolest guns you've had on here!
Kids loved it, thanks for the fun videos.
A Greener harpoon gun is briefly used in the equalizer 2 film to take out one of Dave York's henchmen (this ain't home alone scene). Greener made some great single shot 12 bores and single shot target rifles in the martini falling block action.
I love these videos where he goes all out in the comedy realm! The very enjoyable side of gun videos!
Nothing makes me chuckle more than when Scott freaks out about something exploding
The opening was great with the table flips because i just bought those same tables and was worried they were cheaply made. Now I can confirm they are not.
This man is truly enjoying his life to the fullest!!! I’m glad he brings us along but I think he would be doing this stuff anyway 😂. The harpoon gun is definitely pretty rad too
the rope might actually add a "arrow flight" like effect, adding drag to the back might actually help it fly straighter.
Man your a comedic genius , u crack me up 😂 love the videos buddy ..
Funnily enough, just got done watching Jaws last night. That’s a very cool bit of kit. The ballistics gel turkey was a nice touch as well 😂.
I have always been a big JAWS fan !! When it come out 1975 I was 12 years old went and seen it every Saturday for 8 weeks with my allowance. I have always wondered how a Greener Harpoon gun looked like really firing! Thanks really enjoyed!!
Imagine it, but with .500 magnum blanks….
YEET
OMG that thing is awesome!!! I want a crossbow that can shoot bolts that are propelled the same way, but maybe they could accept 357 blanks too... and just shoot 357's without the bolt as well. Like a long 357 barrel, but the bolts are hollow and slide over the exterior of the barrel. So you can choose to shoot bolts or 357/38's. That'd be so freakin sweet.
Classic Scott never let's me down
thats probably the coolest harpoon gun ive seen
We’re gonna need a bigger table!🦈
LOL
🦈🦈🦈🦈
Seriously tho, Clear Ballistics definitely needs a YT channel for how they make their products!
Scott: *mentions tornadoes in Kentucky
People in Mayfield, KY: *nervous sweating*
to think there is at least one man in this universe across every extraterrestrial civilization, abroad every possible reality who wishes Scott died from the .50 incident is truly stunning
That slow motion harpoon looks insane. Very good content as always
Excellent video I think this is one of my favourites
Always bringing the crazy stuff I swear…YES.
Scott just when I thought you couldn't get any dumber, you go and do something like this. And totally redeem yourself! I'm kidding, every video you put out is awesome, entertaining and informative. Thanks for all your hard work and keep em coming!
I REALLY WANNA SEE SOME MORE STUFF WITH THE HARPOON GUN!!!
🔥🔥🔥
I love the silliness of this video 😂
Jaws is my favorite movie
I love watching your videos so entertaining
someone needs to start producing something like this again! I speer fished all my life and would love a blank powered vs rubber gun, now at my oldish age...
Sharks don't make dolphin sounds. I think you found the one mutant. The fact that the second Nessy shot hit RIGHT where you taped the old girl was impressive.
It was a dolphin that self identifies as a shark.
The dolphin sound making is a hidden skill tree for sharks to be able to trick dolphins into ambushes.
you are like the great comedian i have ever watched
I loved this video the arrow flew very Beautifully
I never thought I’d get excited to see a harpoon gun work, but that was cool!
Watching Scott as an octopi fight another octopi is something I didn't know my little heart needed
But can he take on a t-rex?!
Cool! We built some ammo for an original "kongsberg line thrower", harpoon gun made from a mouser. Guy said there was only a handful of originals, it used a something x44r blank. Can't remember exactly its been years, but that's cool to see you using a similar one!
