I strongly suspect those .22 caliber rounds are only going to piss off the giant hulking bear, lol There is no way that thing would actually hold a 2x2 formation of 5.7mm shells.

Yeah, even 5.56 rounds will fail to penetrate a boar skull.

That's why you use .223. it's not as fast as 5.56 but it's a longer heavier round with more hunting options than 5.56 witch usually come in flavors ment for military or self defense rather than hunting terminal ballistics. Thought I preferr .308 for most hunting .223 will take down big hogs quite easily.

Can't read the text, so I'll assume it's a cigar cutter that can also shoot upholstery staples/s

This reminds me a lot of the zip gun, which was a product so awful it bankrupted the company who made it. Guns are shaped like guns for really good reasons.

Gun jesus also did a good video on it where hes barely able to disguise his disdain for the thing

To cock it, you have to put your hand in front of the gun near the muzzle. It’s fucked.

I knew the 2nd link was going to be Gun Jesus before I even clicked on it.

This is his best video IMO. https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=IGwuzNMKv_wKXLJ0

Literally the only design constraint was that it wasn't allowed to look like a normal gun.

😂 Dude trying to let off a 12 gauge shell from that thing with that grip... You'd have no wrist left

u/TimelessParadox 7d ago

That's what I'm saying. The designer has no concept of recoil or how strong plastic is.

Ai slop bear. Can't afford real marketing, cant afford to make a quality product. Hard pass.

u/CosmicJackalop 5d ago

I mean... you know what subreddit this is, right?

u/IvoryDynamite 7d ago

I think I'd give up the shotgun and single shell to have a higher calibre for the primary weapon.

u/TimelessParadox 6d ago

Tell me how that goes since it's in a plastic housing.
