What’s up scott!
Scott, when are you doing 220 swift?
Always !
kiss on your left cheek
Kool
What's up scott
I have a lot of respect for Scooter, he wanted to save that poor squid so much that he violated the NFA.
😂
😂
Lol
RIP Scooter’s dog
did you see the thumbnail? scott is in posession of an illegal short barrel shotgun now.
Scott out here taking an almost fatal accident that would make even the toughest men question their choice of career and turning it into entertainment AND education for the masses!! Keep up the good work sir, you're creating some of the best content on this platform!!
lemonade from lemons.
@PC LOAD LETTER more like lemons from lemonade
I've just recently revisited the videos from that "era" (including the videos Demo, Donut and Brandon Herrera made for Kentucky's channel). I do recommend doing just that.
@@dk_davidhimself9778 don't forget that MrGunsNGear also helped out with a video as well
Looks like he has a legal short barrel 12 gauge semi auto pump.
A friend of mine had a squib in his 1911 a few years back (he no longer has that gun but for a different reason), and in the moment he didn't notice it but the next riund was a spicy +P round. The fact that his hand and face were intact and he only had a small bruise on his cheek from shrapnel was a miracle
what does a spicy/hot round mean?
@derpthegreatestvidomaker944 it means that a bullet has more powdered explosives than the gun can handle
Wow that’s lucky
When I was 19 I didn't know what a squib load was and I got a new england single shot 223 with a huge 24 inch bull barrel and I was going to start sighting in my scope after my uncle bore sighted it for me I was ilon 20 acres of my family's land where we dove hunt and have a back stop for target practice
Lll

how dangerous would it be if there was a squib in an automatic and somebody went full auto
Well, since there's not enough pressure to push the bullet out or cycle the feed, it wouldn't eject the casing, so you have to eject it manually. That's where gun safety comes in. If you notice when you fired it didn't sound or feel right as you were shooting, that's your time to stop immediately and check
@@irad6711not always true for gas guns. If the round makes it past the gas port but not out of the barrel, it could still cycle and you can have a horrible catastrophic failure.
The tension whenever Scott loads or takes the gun off safety is unbearable everytime! 😆
I was expecting the truck to explode...I can taste my disappointment, it tastes a little less spicy than sadness.
Yeah, I was waiting for it when he shut the truck door at the end 😂
Yeah man...I totally keep forgetting about that too, it gets me every time!
I jump most times
He's becoming a Weenie , huh ?
I love Scott for using his accident as a chance to teach safety whenever he can
The ultimate barrel pressure test. The Canik handled with ease and very entertaining to see for the pistol test. Nice quality apparently!
Incredible to see how the injury healed. Scott’s face didn’t necessarily look like the face we were used to after the incident, but now it looks like the old Scott. The human body is incredibly mysterious at times.
(Also, I don’t mean this to be an insult or anything)
People ask if I have nightmares about any of my injuries & my response is "Why would I?They happened a long time ago."
I think if what happened to him happened to me I would be compelled to mark HAVING a face down as a W. 😆
His neck probably looks different but his face? Still gorgeous
@@doughessonyou live and you learn ayy
Probably had to do with blood flow and tissue that could’ve been lost during the injury
This is another reason to know your gun very well. You should know exactly what kind of *bang* to expect, so when you get a *boomf* you recognize the sound is wrong and don't just keep shooting.
This reminds me of a conversation I had with the commander of a cannon crew from a Civil War re-enactment. He said he preferred the Napoleons because they were made of brass would would tend to split and vent, whereas the iron cannons would tend to just explode. The weapon was quite beautiful, and we got to see a lot of the procedural experience up close (loading, piercing the powder bag, inserting the igniter cord, etc.).
I'm also glad that none of the jams I had the one time I went target shooting involved hung bullets (I don't recall ever hearing the term "squib" before today, but I'm not a firearm expert). I remember the Sig Sauer jammed the most frequently (it wasn't hard to clear, but it was annoying), while the Glock didn't jam at all (but it had more recoil and was less slightly less precise). I looked at the barrels of the two guns later, and noticed that the Sig had a tighter fit between the barrel and the round (they were both 9mm). I have no idea what kind of ammunition I was using... whatever my friend brought with him that day, but it was all the same.

Next time you explore Squibs, you should show or explain how to safely determine (Once clearing the firearm as unloaded) if there's any bulge anywhere down the barrel. Again, every situation is different. I've had a Barrel bulge on me, so I know what you're looking for, but who else does? Great vid, Scott!!
I think pistols usually handle squibs a lot better because A, the barrel just isn't long enough to get that gradual explosive pressure build up, and B, pistol powder burns a lot quicker than rifle powder, so you're getting a sharper acceleration out of the bullet (which is kind of necessary considering short barrel = less burn time).
Don't get careless though, preventative safety is still best safety! :)
The fact that the squib cleared from the barrel of the pistol was amazing. I thought at best, it would jam a second round. Nope, and it was fully functional after.
@@Slitheringpeanut just what I was thinking, I didn't for the life of me think it would clear that, much less function normally afterwards.
A mate of mine had a squib in his beretta 92 performance without noticing it. We just noticed it later when we saw random fragments in front of where he stood
That and the also, it’s not a locked chamber so it is able to release the pressure out the back of the action
I blew up a 44 Mag Korth NXR with a quad squib.
This is why I love Scott's videos. They're not only entertaining as hell but informative and educational. Keep em coming man!
I enjoy the end credit scenes afterwards as it's unique and entertaining to watch. 👍
Informative as in? Don't look down the barrel of a firearm that you think is empty?
I literally just bought a Canik as my very first handgun (just turned 21) two days ago and seeing it clear a squib like it wasn't even there makes me feel really proud of my choice. thanks for the reassurance. im pretty sure it's the exact model you tested too.
Always feels good to win lol
I actually can answer that question about the handgun squibs. My dad had one during training with a Glock, either model 22 or 23. .40 S&W, I do not know what brand or load the local Sheriff's Office was issuing out at the time. Barrel was trashed and the frame was damaged, but he walked away completely unharmed.
Edit for clarity: When I say the barrel was trashed, it didn't explode. It bulged really badly, and some of the rifling was stripped out. The frame was cracked, and I think the slide got cracked too? Hard to remember, been many years and we don't speak anymore. I do know that it was bad enough that they gave him a new handgun afterwards.

@@sleepy7337nah man that’s messed up. You don’t know them
Glocks arnt rifled you're making stuff up
I'm impressed with the Canik, pretty high quality for being rather affordable
Same here I was very surprised that it survived.
Canik is the best bang for the buck, pun intended!
I've been told that caniks intent was to bring a high quality handgun to market for an affordable price. I've talked to a couple guys that have them and love them
@@wackadoobrewsquatch3718 They give you a whole cleaning kit with a spare mag in the box. All the employees at the range near me carries them.
I've ran the Tp9 for a long time and just recently git the METEsfx and I absolutely love then.
I had a squib with some factory subsonic rounds in my MP5K in the middle of a competition. The next round pushed it out and I never had any idea until I got home to clean the barrel and noticed a slight bulge. Still works great to this day, zero didn't even shift
You can't compare a hk to a normal gun.
@@m14lvr I mean... that's fair
Got lucky, and I bet your velocity changed though having a bulge
Should you still be firing it with a slight bulge?
@@andrewthompson7022 whenever I fire I get a slight bulge and I’m still here.
I love how you were stranded on the back of that pickup then magically appeared clean and dry safely on land again - I want to see the uncut version of what happened there!
That was a good video. Thanks and eye opener and everybody who shoots, or shoot hand loads should watch this one.
The more I learn about shooting, the more careful I become. Well done.
I'm so glad for Scott's totally spontaneous decision of taking up a healthier life style and walk all the way back home! Great job as usual. 👍😁
You do realize there was two trucks?
@@Voidesth whoosh
Hey Kentucky, I love these educational videos you do. The shotgun squib actually reminded me if an incident we had happen at the range I work at years ago, of a guy who loaded a 20 gauge birdshot shell before putting a 12 gauge birdshot shell directly behind it causing the whole recieve to detonate. I’d love to see a video showing why you never mix ammunition no matter the situation
czcams.com/video/2xmVQVIZc8c/video.html
I have no doubt that you know this, Shep. For anybody else that doesn't, putting a 20 gauge shell in a 12 gauge shotgun is common enough and disastrous enough that SAAMI has reserved the color yellow for 20 gauge shotgun shells. They don't come in any other color. If you look in your 12 gauge shell bag and see yellow, stop and fish out those 20 gauge shells.
I am in no way an expert on firearms but that is also the point, I know that I don't know. The problem with dangeroues equipment is when it is handled by people that believe that they know. Such people are accident prone.
@@alflyover4413thanks.
"educational 😂"
Hey Scott!! I have a suggestion: the Canik seemed to survive very well against a squib. But what about other things such as dirt and sand in the barrel? I would love to see you torture test this gun and see what it's limits are. It's been a while since you did a torture test so this is a great opportunity!
czcams.com/video/mfUP75Je-IM/video.html
Like a train wreck... hard to watch, impossible to look away lol
I purchased a TP9FSX about 3 years ago for about 630 usd and for the price you pay you get a really solid range gun. Besides adding some brass weight for better control my only downside was the stock trigger once I replaced that my spouse loved the gun some much it basically became hers.
Got mine for $336 used because it had no mag still got it and love it
That 30-06 squib, same result happened to my dad years ago in a 300 Weatherby. But his wasn't from a squib, at some point while walking around a long grass, wheat stock, or something similar got down his barrel. When he fired, similar results. The barrel split and pealed back all the way to the action, opening up like 16in at the end. It now hangs on his wall haha
My dad always put tape over his muzzle for that reason.
@@m14lvr muzzle condom!
He more than likely did have a squib. There have been dozens of videos trying to jam a barrel with mud or ice or other natural things, while it theoretically CAN happen... it doesn't in torture tests. I mean, if you watch enough war footage you'll see US troops regularly putting their barrels straight down in the mud/dirt, just to prop them up and hold them. Or sometimes even in reloads. It's really not THAT big of a problem, granted a muzzle break does make a difference there. But still, to split a barrel you have to have something HARD locked in there to cause it
@AngryDINGUS 100% was not a squib, there was still a chunk of the straw, about 4in, semi burnt into the lower portion of the barrel. My family have been guides for 80yrs, mY dad that this haopemd to now owns an ammunition company, the entire family is well aware of firearms. He sighted in/confirmed zero, evening before the hunt, no squib...if you fire a squib round, in a rifle for sure, you can ABSOLUTELY tell its a squib I don't care what anyone says. Recoil is nothing compared to a standard round. Anyone who knows anything about firearms, ammo, and shooting can agree to that. The only time a squib round is detrimental is at a firing range with pistols when hearing earpro...with a rifle, you know 100% if it's a squib or not the second you pull the trigger
@@m14lvr yes sir and thats a good thing to do
This is the first time I've ever heard the term "squib" being used in typical fire-arm fashion as a barrel obstruction. Usually I hear it being used as a name for exploding blood packs on movie sets.
The word Squib refers to a small explosive charge, typically too small to do any damage - they're used in films to pop blood packs as you know, and also make bullet impacts on walls etc. The squib in a firearms context is still a reference to a small explosive charge, i.e. the cartridge was a "squib load" - too small a bang to push the bullet from the barrel. And due to the wonderful world of etymology, the blockage caused by the squib load, becomes a squib!
No, because they are jerks. If the subsequent shot behind a squib induced blockage happens a half-second or 10 minutes later makes no difference.
I've had one before, not too bad I just had to take it home and bang on the squib with a cleaning rod for 10 seconds to get it out
@@logicthought24 A squib will usally jam the gun, make a different noise, and have a weird recoil impulse. Very easy to tell if you had a squib brah. No reason to NEVER rapid fire because your terrified you might have one
use good ammo and it will probably never be an issue for you
@@logicthought24 I think that any range that forces me to shoot my gun in a very specific way doesn't deserve a penny from me 🤷♂
Kentucky ballistics is so cool I could watch u every day thanks for the upload scott
Scott, two things on the squib video. 1) I would love to see how you made/got the squib setup in the barrel. 2) Just for fun, when the barrel does explode, fire another round just to see what happens. I realize this is silly, but it would be fun.
I think he just used a rod to push bullet into barrel. Only real accurate way to get them there.
That was really awesome. Would have never expected the shotgun barrel to split like a kitchen whisk. Like you said, it looked like the good old looney toons.
The 30-06 was really impressive. Would love to see, the two bullets merged together - if you're even able to get them out of the remaining barrel...
But the Pistol really deserves the Titel of "Most Sturdy Gun of the Day". Absolutely astonishing, that it was still fully functional after the squib.
I also hope, that you manage to get your truck back out of the mud.
Greetings from Germany.
As someone that owns a canik TP9 I was both excited and afraid of the end result. I'm glad it came out just fine, but then again not every situation is the same.
I was literally combing the comments to say the exact same thing!
Agreed, I was pleasantly surprised
Edit: especially using underwood ammo...them like Buffalo bore are so over pressured most the time
i love that you tease us with the explosion as you take the saftey off. great content, keep it up!

Well you just made me like my Canik SFX even more than I already did. Thanks. Had one squib only once in my life with a M&P 40 and it bulged the barrel out. Smith stood behind it, replaced the barrel and it works fine to this day. It still rattled me a little. Great video. Keep up the good work.
Now i understand why making sure your gun barrel is clear is so important
True... Heard of too many stories. Like a hunting rifle's bolt exploding backwards and killing the hunter. Smashed his head.
Interesting video for sure! My first firearm instructor handed me a damaged 44 magnum revolver which had opened like a flower after making contact with a squib. The squib bullet was stuck right where the bullet enters the barrel. Would love to see that happen on your channel Scott. Also, you gotta do a slap round squib video!

Im new. However I’m glad I found this channel, and I am enjoying my stay!
The gun failure situation videos are always really entertaining to me. Great work, Scott!!!
And informative. During my school years due to costs many expensive experiments just wasn't done and we had to make do with dry books. Now we got the internet and those expensive experiments becomes dirt cheap if instead of twenry students there are nany thousands looking at a video. A gun is expensive and you don't want to dedtroy it in an experiment for the benifig of a handful people but thease videos can be seen by millions. It wouldn't even suprise me if some soldiers are told to take a look at them.
Love this sort of content Scott. Have you done a video about accidentally loading a 20 bore cartridge into a 12 bore shotgun then loading a 12 bore cartridge on top?
I don’t know why, but I absolutely love Scott’s little gremlin laugh with the shotgun Squib-
Thank you for educating me about a squib. I'll be honest, I never heard of a squib. I always appreciate you being safe and helping us to remain safe.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOCATE THEM BY PEERING DOWN THE BARREL
I really want to see what happens when you plug the barrel like that, but FILE weak points into the metal, like in a spiral around the barrel and see how/if the barrel splits along the file-lines. Might make some nice post video artwork.
you saying it cause he did for clicks?
Demo Ranch did some truly horrible things to pistols to TRY to make them explode. Very few actually did. Concrete, Epoxy, Weld, etc, etc, and finally SHOOTING a round directly into the barrel.
If your gun ever doesn't feel like it fired right, there's nothing lost with dropping the mag, clearing the chamber and sticking your cleaning rod down the bore real quick.
Thank you sir great demonstration!
This happend to me about 20 years ago. I was training for a n IPSC match in Canada, hand loaded .45 ACP rounds out of a Springfield. I had a malfunction, tapped and racked and had a massive blast from the end of the barrel... Besides the racing heart and needing a new barrel (it did have a considereble bulge in it) all was okay, lesson learned...
Glad your OK.
@@agustintellez136 thanks, me too

I looked up Mitragyna speciosa I can't see it online to buy but I guess I have to do a deeper dive. God bless you all and never get back surgery it ruined my life.
I used to shoot fireworks displays about 20 years ago - hand fired displays (my favorite - you just set them off with a road flare) and electronically fired displays. When you do electronic displays, the igniters are also called “squibs.” One time we had a guy helping us set up a display and he kept calling them “squids.” He said it a bunch of times both as a noun and as a verb: “Hey, we need another box of squids here.” “Did you squid that shell? Make sure to squid those.” Fun times.
I love fireworks and stuff realy funny story
The shotgun isn't even ruined all you have to do is sawed-off the bad part of the barrel and it's good to go
That is commonly called a "felony" shortening a barrel beyond a certain point without government consent is a crime.
@@theinvisiblebrick636 no way

i had a squib in my 22 ruger so this really helped, thanks!
this guys mannerisms are infectious, love the craziness of this channel
Scott showing his scars while talking about squibs is like a character showing their battle scars to someone
Love that face, "are you expecting something." Well yes and I got it, " a few moments later." It's interesting how the front end of the barrel on the shotgun stayed in line with the rear part of the barrel; but held together by steel strands.
Thanks Scott. Wait a minute Scott, "hold my slug," could you try shooting through that section of barrel?
I saw a Remington 51.380 ACP a few years ago that I was getting ready to buy and it had a bulge in the location of the last third section of the barrel from a squib load. I would have had to make a new barrel however, I didn't buy it and do that because I couldn't readily order a barrel blank with the original rifling pitch with the correct land and groove widths and I couldn't get a barrel maker to custom machine a barrel blank to the original rifling specs..
Great public Service showing possible injuries!
With a little humor thrown in!
Great information. Never really thought about that scenario before. Education is scary.
Love your videos, Scott! Assuming the firing mechanism still works, what would happen if you fired the rifle and shot gun again? Just curious to see what would happen.
Think he will now we both asked him to. 😉
I presume that nothing too special will happen with the shotgun. assuming you are able to load another shell of course, the split up barrel would probably just behave like a really bad, shorter barrel, considering the damage sustained that didn't result in splitting (bending, dents, and all that)
Always a good day when KB puts out a video
You have healed incredibly. I'm glad to see it.
Scott bro I just had to subscribe because you are such an amusing lunatic God bless you man .
Yes. I absolutely was expecting something. I was braced for it this time and you completely screwed me out of me being proud of myself for not jumping. Great video.
Great video as always Scott. I never something like this could happen with firearms. Also, at 3:40-3:44 I was waiting for you to play that explosion when you were talking like that. I pretty much just about think to myself, he's going to add the explosion in here at some point to catch us off guard🤣🤣. Hope you have a great rest of the week Scott.
Would’ve fit perfect when he closed the car door at the end
I really wanted to watch you try to get that truck out of that mud. Thank you for this informative video btw. Good stuff

Honestly that Canik really held up impressively well. They are really looking like a great budget handgun option.
I'd put my canik up against any other 9mm and it will hold its own all the way.
Intros are always super funny. Love the content period!
thanks for making this!!! i had my first squib and have been anxious ever since. this video helped me understand what to expect and what look out for.
Great demo.
I would suggest adding a paper targets to the rear and side, to see how much fragmentation the firer and anyone standing nearby might catch.
Thanks
Love the video! Always was warned about a barrel plugged with mud. I bet you could sell those blown up barrels I would love to have one to use as a display to teach kids that sqibs are dangerous.

2 months late but watching this again I have 2 questions.. Could you clear a squib with a BLANK round? More dangerously could you fire the shotty with that barrel redesign in place? Love your videos and always look forward to watching and rewatching your vid's.
Very informative. Never thought this could happen in modern firearms due to technological advances.
Thank you for all your years of hard work Scot! I always stop what I’m doing to watch you uploads.

👍
This reminds me of when demolition ranch did all kinds of barrel obstructions in pistols, and just about all of them shot out, so I’m not surprised the pistol was just fine.
One thing I’ve seen on pistols only is taking the bullet out of the brass leaving the powder and primer, loading it into the gun at a slight up angle and firing it and the stuck bullet comes right out. Never seen it done on larger caliber rifles or shotgun slugs. Would love to see it in a future video
Thanks for another awesome upload Scott. My 26th birthday and actually having one of the worst days in years
Hope it gets better, brother. Happy birthday from across the pond!!! 🤙🏻🍻♠️
happy birthday from france!
Thank you guys! And my mistake I didn’t mean to be looking for pitty I was meaning to say this video helped me cheer up lol
Well for what it’s worth… HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Great video! Cool to see that Canik survived without an issue, if you had a squib like that you'd probably never even know! I wonder though if the felt recoil would be different from the second bullet impacting the squib?
I had a squib load in a gen4 Glock 19. I was actually firing fairly quick, but the squib was obvious to me; it was more of a muffled thump instead of a bang, and the recoil impulse was weird (kind of like a soft push straight back).
The case stovepiped, but I'd have stopped after the weird feel regardless. Dropped the mag, cleared the stovepipe, checked the barrel and yep- a squib!
I can definitely see how a newer shootet might screw up if it does actually cycle on a squib, but anyone reasonably well practiced will know something is fucky right away.
I hereby volunteer to NOT hold THAT pistol to find out. 😁😁😁
Had a squib in a hi point carbine 9mm shot a second one after that both bullets lodged in the barrel about halfway down but the HP was undamaged lol i drove both round out and still use that same HP today with no issues no barrel bulge nothing
shoutout to all the fellow new shooters that made the same terrified face as me finding out the barrel actually makes that comical shape when the gun fails. 3:51
5:15 "you definitely wouldn't be firing any more slugs that day"
**pulls out hacksaw** wanna bet?
My father had a ‘squib’ in his centrefire pistol. Caused a measurable but not too noticeable bulge in the barrel but nothing crazy. This was .22 so not a lot of pressure either. But pretty accurate to your test results.
a .22 centerfire pistol?
😂😂

I’m so happy you are still making videos after what happen because no one else is doing the crazy stuff you do love you videos

That was funny, educational, and quite surprising. I was anticipating the exact opposite results. I figured both the 30-06 and shotgun would have cleared it or sustained minimal damage. I figured maybe some bore scarring. The Canik i really thought would have blown apart taking your hand(s) off or leaving your face pretty messed up. Kudos to Canik....I love my Rival even more knowing it is tough. Still after seeing this, its gonna be hard to go to the range and fire off 10 rounds very quickly in semi-auto fashion wondering if my chances of a squib happening may present itself. hmmm scary stuff.
I'm pretty sure I got a squib in a .38 caliber revolver I had. I was firing it and on my 4th shot I got smacked in the chest by something heavy. I look down and there's a blob of lead on the ground where it bounced off my chest. Near as I can tell, the 3rd shot was a squib and when I fired the 4th shot it cleared the barrel, but a piece of either it or the squib ended up getting thrown backwards and hitting me. No visible damage anywhere on the gun, and thankfully I and everyone else at the range was unharmed. I can't even say 100% that's what happened because the target already had plenty of holes in it from earlier shots so I don't even know if there was one missing or not. I kind of feel like for the pressures involved most handgun barrels are pretty heavily over engineered and most of the overpressure is going to end up coming back out of the breech.
Excellent content as always, thank you👍
I really love these videos, as an amateur gun enthusiast I find these both interesting and educational.
That's some Wiley Coyote stuff!
I fired behind a squib in a Ruger mkII with a slab sided barrel. You could make out a slight bulge on the exterior of the barrel 2/3 down. It still shot great for many thousands of round.
I really hope this is profitable for you. Because these gun tests are gold to the public archives. Most people pay some of your sponsors to learn things that could save their lives.
Ah yes my favorite time of the week. Love ya Scott keep up the great content.
It makes me happy that Scott’s ok from the 50bmg and I’m really happy that he is laughing today❤
He's such a great guy he laughs at his potentially live ending injury and constantly makes jokes about it
His laughter is medicine
That laugh and then the Predictor focusing in in the background was perfect 😂😂

Intro and content were superb. ‘What’ was you expecting something….lol….yes I was 😂
Hey Scott, I was wondering how would the shotgun react after this failure if you would cut the barrel just before the bulge out? I know that cutting the barrel is illegal but for science I was wondering if you could and if it would still be firing fine. Hope you could do this in a follow-up video. Thanks Rob.
i want to know what it would do with the barrel in its current state
