Glock shooting underwater, 3 times?

[Sylvain]

And in reality those rounds probably would have done no damage to the Individual...

Are you trying to make me cry?

I know, I was just wondering if you could fire the shots, af far as their power is concerned it's another story.
The rounds went through the car window then through the person's skull.
I guess in the reality the rounds may even not be powerful enough to break the window.

Unless the shooter uses some special FBI rounds that we are not even aware of.Like mini torpedoes.

Would shooting dry phone books and milk jugs full of air be good tests for stopping power of bullets when fired from under water?

Dry phone books under water?

Unless they are sealed in a plastic bag those dry phone books wouldn't stay dry for long.

If you have a pool or a water tank, a handgun and some phone books then go for it.

It could be interesting to compare the same ammo shot from the same distance both in the air and under water.

Sounds like something for the box-o-truth guys. Don't think my in-laws will take too kindly to me shooting in the pool. They really get ticked when I pee in it (ok, just kidding about that part).

You mean they don't really mind?

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire* the box-of-thruth guys.

(*Im not actually going to hire them, it would have to be a free job)

I am still wondering why one would want to Shoot Underwater?!

Becuase you can....?

 

[Takashi]

Is it really loud?

Apparently, because he is wearing ear protection!

I could just see a hollow point expanding INSIDE the barrel if fired underwater. That would not be pretty.

I just seen on a TV show a guy shooting his Glock underwater, 3 shots without a jam.
I know Glocks can shoot underwater, I have seen some tests on TV and videos online but I never seen several shots in a row.It was always one single shot.
I can imagine that after the first shot the spent cassing could stay stuck in the chamber, because of the water not letting it fall like in the air, and make the gun jam.

So is it just TV magic or is it plausible?

Everybody knows Glocks shoot under water... Tommy Lee Jones told us that in the movie "US Marshalls"!

it looks cool, but i would not do that to my glock!

I know, that why I asked if someone could test it for me.

I'm also OCD about keeping my weapons clean/lubed. I don't think I'd do that to mine but cool to watch nonetheless.

I've used that gun as my picture on here for quite a while. It looks really neat.

I can tell you from experience (using bang sticks on large fish, which is just a .357 on the end of a stick) while it is not actually loud, the pressure on your eardrums is extremely painful if you're close (within 6'). Air compresses, but water does not, so you get an amazing amount of muzzle blast tranfered to your eardrum. It's not very nice.
