A new show on the Outdoor channel seeing if shots on the movies could really happen. They fire 3 guns under water to see if they would go through a windshield. First was a glock 9mm. Cycled for 3 shots but the bullets bounced off the windshield. Ruger 357 wouldn't fire double but did single. Didn't penetrate. Then they fired the Ruger 454. It did penetrate. The pressure from the shot was tremendous. The shooter a retired GBeret came out visibly shaking from the pressure from the shot. Said he would not do that again. The show was kind of a waste but showing the results of an underwater was very interesting.

AS a kid many years back we shot a Stevens Favorite 22 under water for some unknown reason. Roger, me & another guy. Didn't hit anything but had fun.

Look up "Bang Stick". Loads of fun. Popped a 12ga one once. ONCE.

A .454 Casull underwater? Does that retired Green Beret still have eardrums and maxillary sinuses? The shock wave in air can be felt yards away like a slap.
