.38 Special Reload Using Match Heads

Proof of concept:

So scientific, I love the use of clamps and a vice.  As I was watching the video it got me thinking if anyone ever tried liquid propellants… some interesting talk about that on various websites.

From the TSA website:

NOT ALLOWED: Strike-anywhere Matches – One book of safety (non-strike anywhere) matches are permitted as carry-on items, but all matches are prohibited in checked baggage.

Christian-Bale-Pointing-MemeBan in 3….2…..1 hahah.  Also cue someone telling me “people like you and the guy who made the video are our own worst enemies” *eye roll*

Thoughts?

    Interesting. There is a guy on Youtube Tacome1942 who makes paper firearms and has been using match heads as a propellant.

    I’ve always wondered if the explosive compounds found in military grenades, C4 or mines could be used (in a mixture or with fillers) for reloading in a battlefield survival type scenario. Maybe Richard Ryan could look into this sort of thing.
