Mythbusters Tonight - Firearms Myths

[ivorykid]

I just saw this is on tonight:

Mythbusters: "Firearms Folklore" The Mythbusters test three gun myths.

It appears to be an all new episode. Tonight (11/29) on the Discovery Channel at 9 pm.

They are usually pretty good with addressing firearms-related stuff. This should be some good entertainment.

This should be the episode of trying to shoot 5 rounds before a coin hits the ground from the back of the hand. The guy that does the quick draw lives in Livermore. He is the FFL I use. Heads up if this is the episode the myth gets busted at their range, but he told me that he actually confirmed it could be done the next day at Chabot.

Did someone express affection for Kari?

If that's the episode then it's a rerun.

Just started and it's not a re-run.

Yeah, the 5 shots before the coin falls is a rerun...

But tonights show is ALL NEW! It's recording now....

I just caught the end of the scope myth. What size round were they using? I can't believe it would not go through the scope.

This is the sniper v. sniper, musket ball fuse, do hammers explode, and bullet into a revolver chamber?

Everyone catch Mike from SJGE selling Jamie a bolt action rifle?

Well, they missed it on the Hathcock scope shot.
Comparing one of today's multi-lensed, coated optics scope to the scope on a Mosin-Nagant. Not gonna be the same guys.
The Nagant scope has far fewer lenses and is half the length.

Ah well, I expected something like this.
