It would not cause a chain reaction. watch the video that lights refers too. They do a lot of different tests, rounds do not set off other rounds.

Still a bit unnerving!


So is your wife pumping gas into her car and wearing satin panties. Do you know what can happen in that scenario? You can not go through life being afraid of what can happen.

Have seen an 06 resting in crotch of tree shot with BB gun. Went through fleshy part of my buddies thigh.

Through but at the outer edge so really close to just two layers of skin rather than meaty area.
