    Winchester 1897 full flash blank

    An interesting picture of one of my 1897's firing a black powder blank.

    These burn a little slower than smokeless and you capture a good flash on film.
    The irony is, that a far heavier smokeless load will make an earth shattering bang shake the dust out of the rafters, scrape the neighbors, but the flash will be so fast that the camera doesn't capture it.

    I think it was likely a longer exposure, so made the flame look bigger.

    It's firing just to the side of the Camera, just another day at the office.

    Very cool. But that 1897 has been Bubba'd
    Is this for a movie or TV show?

      I think the only thing done to that 1897 was to shorten the barrel - (I believe, we have about five or so 1897's.)

        I originally thought the stock was cut down to just a pistol grip. But I see his arm (your arm?) is covering the stock.

          The arm belongs to an actor called Scott Adkins.

            I watched the YT clip you posted. Lots of gratuitous gore
            In the last kill, did he remove and take a bit of the dudes kidney?
