  • Today we’re testing a bit of gun meme lore: Will a 12 gauge fire a .50 BMG round? And to make it more interesting, what happens when you try it in a semi-auto?

    About Me
    My name is Brandon Herrera. I'm the owner and operator of The AK Guy Inc, a 07 Firearm Manufacturer based out of Fayetteville, NC. I also co-own Stark Media Group, and designed the rifle known as the AK-50.
    I've started to dedicate this RUclips channel above all to have fun, but also as a way to document my entrepreneurial journey for the next few years as I try to grow my companies. Hopefully, people can learn from my example, successes, and failures.
    Either way, I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, and I hope it's just as fun to follow along!

      The production process used to create them is... somewhat less precise than most firearm manufacturers.
      It's akin to buying a surplus M91/30. You pays your moneys, and you take your chances. The Mosin Nagant platform can be phenominal. ...But you might get a couple lemons before you find a really good one.

    You could 3d print a sabot for the 50 BMG projectile to make it fit in the 12 gauge barrel and use one of the fire formed casings to hold the sabot. Basically a big shotgun round that has a 50 BMG projectile in a discarding sabot. The firearm would most definitely explode though.

      Could cast (or print) a cartridge support for the case to the neck, and sabot the projectile , however it still wouldn't work, the projectile would push its way through the sabot, unless you eliminate the spear point in some way. Even then with those pressures I don't think the sabot would survive.

    Brandon we need to take a moment to reflect on the fact that the JTS has outperformed the PAK. With that out of the way I have a terrible idea. With those .50 cases blown out it is possible to trim them back, reprime, load a full power charge for .50, and seat a 12 guage slug in the case. Some form of Khyber Pass crimping (I dunno, stake it with a chisel for all I care) and I'd wager you'll be picking pieces of the JTS out of the berm. That is all.

      you can get metal shotgun hulls in brass and steel.. dunno what this would prove. he never showed us the case head but I suspect it might be bulged a lot making priming it rather difficult.. and what powder do you want to use? if it is standard rifle smokeless the slug will just be a bore obstruction and everything shooting out the back. have to use some kind of shotgun loading to even give a decent chance of budging the slug before the detonation.. I wonder if that shotgun is rifled? will need a better testing apparatus then some string and a 50 gallon barrel of water to hide behind if he does it. taofledermous collab perhaps? he loads some insane stuff.

    Create a barrel insert that would actually convert a smoothbore shotgun into a .50BMG. Like an actual barrel of sorts that you can just slip into the barrel to "neck down" the barrel. I've no doubt the shotgun would die from this, but want to see if this could actually work.

      @Goldenkitten1 2 года назад +43

      Well yeah but no. The point of the AK-50 is it supports the round, is structurally solid and can cycle the ammunition. Not only is arming this thing a whole 3-minute process but even with the 3d printed stuff it's not directing it particularly well and given the thing was falling apart I'm sure it would just be a matter of 1-3 more rounds before it either fell or blew apart. Honestly you could probably do this in a more quality shotgun and get better results but nobody wants to pay for a quality shotgun and then possibly shred it.

    If you want that JTS to cycle, you need to run about 100-200 high brass shells through the two larges gas settings (exluding 0). That is what it took for the last one I handled to cycle anything other than high brass #4. Once you break it in to that degree it handles anything. Probably still won't cycle 50 bmg but would be fun to try.

    Why not make successively hotter slug loads and see just how far it goes? If you had a chronograph you could measure the muzzle velocity too.
