The Firearm Database is startlingly and amazingly detailed. Read the articles for video games too, like Far Cry, they can be pretty amusing.

fat bossy gerbil posted:Put a live round in there and it will project it the same as any real firearm though, even if the gun explodes as it does so. Blank only guns cost just as much and in many cases a whole lot more than just using a real gun hence why directors often just opt to use the real thing. It depends on the gun. Brandon Lee was killed by a revolver, as revolvers and other manually cycled firearms don't require a conversion to fire blanks. Semi-auto and full auto guns require the barrel to be constricted in some manner to allow enough gas pressure to cycle the action (as there's no bullet to push against, since equal and opposite reactions still occur inside a gun); the military and police fit blank firing adapters on the ends of their barrels, but these are big ugly blocks. Movie armorers typically non-permanently convert live weapons with constricted barrels that look normal and allow for a normal muzzle flash while cycling the action. But the actors in The Crow were using a revolver, which doesn't require that and thus had a full barrel to launch a projectile with. If you tried loading a blank converted firearm with live ammo, it would likely explode. I also own two blank guns made by Ekol which are only designed to fire blanks, having a totally blocked barrel and an unusual chamber size that would be difficult to load any live ammo into that isn't custom made. They would require more significant work to convert to live firing weapons, and I'm not sure I would trust the metal they're made of to not explode under the stress of firing anything more powerful than a .22.

The Lone Badger posted:What I don't know is howinfuck they got a real handgun to use. Unless someone brought their illegal piece in, which is extra extra stupid. If you mean this is surprising because Australia banned guns - they didn't. Many of the places in the world Americans think guns are banned actually just have stricter requirements for ownership. As with NFA items like machineguns and grenades/rocket launchers in the US, even a small administrative speedbump is enough to curb abuse or at least declare victory over them until the public moves on to focus on the scourge of kitchen knives and Bat'leths. If you meant it was suprising because it was a handgun being used - handguns, while being the guns most commonly used in crime in any given country, aren't particularly scary looking so they (along with shotguns/rifles with wood furniture on them) tend to be more available than whatever had scary black plastic attached to it in the magazines/movies legislators viewed in the 1980-1990's.

It's actually logically impossible to ban guns if the enforcement of such a ban requires the existence of guns.

Asimo posted:Yeah, blanks can and will kill people, it just takes a fair bit of negligence. Every few years you'll get someone taking a blank-loaded pistol to their head as a joke, and whoops, they actually blow their brains out as the gas and wadding penetrates the skull. You can probably get similarly lethal effects with (im)properly-placed torso shots.

Looks like they did everything by the book and it's probably a result of either the armourer screwing up or off-camera horseplay. Also: Still laffin:

Sagebrush posted:good loving lord. clearly no one has watched this one yet if i'm the first one commenting I guess you'd be OK until you touch the metal portion of that rod. I would assume that since he's sitting on a metal "engine" which is sitting on a metal track, he's probably fairly well grounded. Ouch. Snowglobe of Doom posted:3rd world mine sites loving suck even when they don't have electricity What did they think would happen? I mean, those cars have to be at least a ton apiece loaded. I'm surprised the track lasted as long as it did.

Story from work today Last week, there was a molten sodium leak between a flange and the connected transfer line. I was placed in charge of investigating this incident (and all others because ???) and guess what I found out. Work was out of proper size gaskets for that flange and someone decided to make a "custom" gasket. They did this by taking a larger gasket and whittling it down to the approximate size they need. Of course, since it was "custom," they had no idea how much torque they needed on the flange. So they guesstimated that too, which was the bigger problem. And presto, at 30 psi, the gasket failed and sodium leaked all over the place. Morons

Some kindergarteners found some neat-looking flat stones outside. So, of course, the kindergarten makes a fun activity out of it, shaping and painting the stone plates, even making some gifts for the parents. Google translated article, I couldn't find an English language one. quote:There was a father who first became suspicious when he received an "asbestos gift" handed over by her daughter.

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Story from work today Not to say that everything was on the up and up. Its a tradition to pay no attention to gaskets at all. Most leaks are flange leaks, and most flange leaks are due to idiots using the wrong material, shaving down gaskets with torsion features (which makes them less than useless), or just completely guessed torque.
